Hi,

Does free ride have intellisense support?  If not is there a planned date for it's support?

(is it even possible to have intellisense with a dynamic language like Ruby?)

Tks

Hi Greg,

To answer shortly, no we don't support autocompletion at
the moment. It 
is possible to do with Ruby but it's very complicated to be
100% exact. 
Currently I'm working on updating RRB which allows (besides
refactoring) 
some basic form of auto-completion. I have no idea how
usable this is 
going to be. In part because I've never used it, but mainly
because I'm 
still in the very early stages of getting RRB to work with
the latest 
Ripper.

My best suggestion would be to just learn the Ruby-API as
you go. ri is 
a very useful utility once you get the hang of it. (We even
have an 
ri-plugin.) That and the standard Ruby-documentation should
get you a 
long way without ever needing auto-completion.

As for a planned dates, this project is all voluntary work
done in our 
spare time so we generally don't have a clue as to when
something might 
be release-ready. Sorry but that's just the nature of OSSD.

With kind regards,
Jonathan
