Is there a way to get the IDE to generate interface methods
lazarus / 9-Editor

Please forgive the question if it's seems obvious.  I have always
Implemented an interface in a new class the hard way in Lazarus by
copying the interface members from the interface into the class and
using class completion to generate the methods.  Is there a way to do
so in the Lazarus IDE without such a manual brute force technique?  I
don't see anything in the Refactor menu and invoking Class Completion
on a class with an unimplemented interface does nothing.  Is this not
possible?

 

I would think that in the age of interface based development, making
it easy to define and implement interfaces would be a well supported
use case within the IDE, so I am assuming I just don't know of it.
It's a snap in Visual Studio.

I have no idea, but I did a quick test, and "refactor" > "Abstract
methods" seems to list them.
