When I type:

Dim vn As NotesViewNavigator

vn.

in a Script Library Class Function I NEVER get the list of methods and properties. If I type this in an Initialize event of an agent it works better (not always). Please fix.

…but this function is disabled if there are other syntax errors that make the context help system uncertain that it can work reliably.

Subject: Does not work in 8.5.1 FP4 either

Hi,

I tried now with 8.5.1 FP4. In [Sub New] it works but in any other [Function] of the [Class] it does not work. I copy pasted the code in my first post to a Script Library that had no errors.

EDIT: This might have something to do with the Designer bug which causes most of my Script Libraries to show error “Circular dependency error detected: ” in the first line of “(Options)” section. The error disappears when the Script Library is saved second time.

Subject: Steps to reproduce

I’m testing again with 8.5.2 and now I have exact steps to reproduce:

  1. Create a LotusScript Class in a script library (not sure if this step is needed)

  2. Create a Function inside the Class

  3. Make the function return e.g. string or integer by ending the function name with $ or % (this is how most of my functions are named)

If I remove the $ or % or other type sign from the end of the function name, the type-ahead works fine.
