Autocomplete based on tags information [feature request] #50

Open dawpud opened 2 weeks ago

dawpud commented 2 weeks ago

Hi! Is there a way to integrate autocompletion based on the tags file, such that if I typed instance. VSCode could autocomplete methods and variables from the instance's class? Thank you for this extension!

Thanks for the message! So this extension does not have a feature like that unfortunately. And I have never really thought about it, so I don't know how feasible it is.

It looks like a combination of typeref + qualified names could be used to implement this. No promises, but I'll have to investigate this further...

By the way, which language are you using?

Thanks @gediminasz! I am using ctags with SystemVerilog and possibly C/C++.
