method completion does not work?

[rgrinberg]

I cannot get a completion to work past a #. I realize this is probably a lot of work but it would be great to have this.

I have an unstable prototype with this functionality, though far from useful on real world code…
This feature will come, but don't expect it soon :).

[let-def]

Just for your information, you can find early support for object completion in "object-support".
No efforts are done at the moment to complete/recover inside class definitions, but assistance is provided when using an object :).

Note that this is experimental code, it may be less stable than current version.

I'll give it a try tonight. Too bad I do not come by objects too often in my code :D

[let-def]

Well, this is a first step toward a more general type-directed completion: at the moment only completing object methods, but some day we hope to use type of the function being applied to list labels, type of arguments, sort completion suggestions by type, and during matching, suggest constructors of type being matched in patterns.

It could even be possible to create template of matching construction, like prefilling "| Some <> -> <> | None -> <>" when the user types "match x with …" when x as an option type. Probably a bit too much (though it could be used to suggest missing cases), but still interesting feature :).

Type-directed templates for generating basic code for matching all cases could be very useful, particularly with larger variants!
