Before filing a request, I’d like to hear what you think about having a sort of macro recorder in the editor where to store frequent method steps (like dialogs or queries etc.).
Your opinions?
A Glossary feature like BBEdit would be nice.
This is a place where you manage your code snippits. Very nice.
If you are using Windows worth looking at InfoStore - http://www.mhsoftware.co.uk/infostore.htm. Only costs US$19 but very useful for storing & organising code snippets, gotcha’s, screenshot pics etc.

It would be very handy, thumbs up!

Seems nice, but I develop on Mac.
Hello Guys,
I also find myself with several developers open copying code from one solution to another.
Great idea to create a library of codes, so for the time being I just created a small solution in wich I can store my code snippets and other data. And it is multi platform.
If somebody wants to use it feel free to download it.
Please let me know if this is usefull.
If so I will develop it further.
Any bug reports or ideas can be sent to me by e-mail.
Some ideas eg
- Multi user (so you can share code snippets with other groups of users or keep them private) implemented in version 1.0
- Remark field so you can add remarks/reminders or to do`s related to the data implemented in version 03
- It could also be placed on a server so anyone can access the same data.
Hope this helps us enjoy Servoy even more
Kind Regards Rene

Excellent idea, Renee.
Here’s another idea (that I use myself): I create a module called “coreFunctions” and then I can put ALL my common code in there and use in ALL my solutions.
It’s really been a huge timesaver!
Hope this helps.
Great idea… Hmmm… Now that I think of it I created the very first Servoy plugin for that
Yes - it was (and IS) an EXCELLENT plug-in!
I have all kinds of functions in there - getting the display value of an item in a valuelist, testing if a string is within an array and returning the position, handling all error & info dialogs, returning an array of all the fields on a form (named or unnamed), generic export to excel of foundset on any form, etc., etc.
Mac users:
I use a little app called “Textepander” for macros. Works great.
So, for example, when I type
ddbm
into the method editor, it automatically returns:
dataset = databaseManager.getDataSetByQuery(controller.getServerName(), query, null, 1000)

It does, indeed. I created my own library when modules appeared on Servoy universe and I also use your coreFunctions 
But what I meant was something where to store generic code snippets like pre-formatted for cycles, queries with getDatasetByQuery and so on…

Excellent suggestion. I’ll give it a look.
New Download added(version 03)
Data Library,
Function:
Store random data and or code snippits in a categorized way.
Revision history: version 03 25-05-06
Solved When in search mode and the search windows closes without pressing enter of F3 the search stays open and the solution needs to be reopend
Solved When in search window the formInDialog needs to be set as is also done in edit window. Find function redesigned.
Solved When in category window the formInDialog needs to be set as is also done in edit window. Edit function redesigned.
Changed Change Tooltip of Find button from “Enter search request” into “Start search request”
Added Remark field so you can add remarks/reminders or to do`s related to the data.
Featurelist:
- Multi user (so you can share code snippits with other groups of users or keep them private).
- User documentation.
Kind regards Rene
