  • Extensible mechanism for providing suggestions in a source code editor
    Patent number: 9170782
    Abstract: An extensible editor for editing program source code can customize a default display provided by a language service in an IDE. The default display can be modified using source code-specific extension code. The extension code can be provided by a third party. The extension code can reside in the source code file to which it applies. The extension code can reside in a separate file from the file in which the source code resides. A naming convention can be used to enable the extensible editor to locate the extension code. Display entries can be filtered, added, removed, or modified using an API provided by the extensible editor. The API can allow the extension code to register for one or more events including but not limited to a completion hint event, a completion list event, and a function help event. User-provided extensions can be used to customize default display results.
