Method Snippets

The following features can be used in DVT to generate new methods:

• Quick Fix

• Refactoring

• Generate Setters and Getters

• Function Override

• Autocomplete

To customize the way a generated method looks you can edit the method_implementation, method_override_body or method_prototype snippets.

Note

When a snippet is auto-generated, you may use either the placeholder (${index:var}) or variable (${var}) format. However, to also take advantage of content assist snippets, the placeholder format is recommended.
