Identifier Completion - how?
lazarus / 9-Editor

Hi guys.

I am pressing Control + Space but instead of obtaining a list of
Identifiers the IDE opens me an glut unit which is added by me to the
uses list. What's wrong? One addition to the problem.
It doesn't work only in the case when I do File->New..->Program

and then I add glut unit like this:

Code: [Select]program Project1;

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}

uses
  {$IFDEF UNIX}{$IFDEF UseCThreads}
  cthreads,
  {$ENDIF}{$ENDIF}
  Classes
  { you can add units after this },
  glut; //new unit here

{$R project1.res}

begin
  <--- Identifier Completion doesn't work here, takes me to the glut
unit
end.
I am using Windows 7, build:
Lazarus-0.9.29-23526-fpc-2.4.1-20100122-win32
I was browsing this link: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_I
DE_Tools#Identifier_Completion
but I couldn't find a solution to the problem.


Also, is there a possibility to show parameters which are needed for
the procedure, f.e.

If we have a proc:

Code: [Select]procedure Test(Param1: Integer; Param2: Boolean);
when I type in code

Code: [Select]Test( 
I will get a popup window with needed paramas.

Thanks for your time.

Thanks theo.

What about isue which I described?

The problem lies in glut unit. When I hit Control + Space, IDE tries
to parse this unit and stopes with this message:

C:\lazarus\fpc\2.4.1\source\packages\opengl\src\glut.pp(441,52) Error:
expected end., but mode_inline found


It seems that this keyword mode_inline is not properly handled by the
parser?

Should I report this bug somewhere?

Yes. Preferably in the bugtracker.
