What is Context Tagging®? Print E-mail

Question:
What is Context Tagging?

Answer:
Context Tagging is a feature found in Visual SlickEdit® v4.0 and later that takes tagging one step further by analyzing your current code context, including the name of your current function or procedure, the class it belongs to, local variables visible in the current scope, and what class members and global variables, etc. are visible from the current context.  This feature allows SlickEdit® to perform functions such as:

    Auto List Members - Alt+Dot
    Auto Parameter Info - Alt+Comma
    Tag Navigation - Ctrl+Dot
    Tag Preview -
    Go to References - Ctrl+Slash

For more information, search the SlickEdit help for "Context Tagging".  Learn how SlickEdit can analyze code on the feature pages for more information about Context Tagging.
