how do you use ${word_selection} in an Eclipse PDT template?
- by pocketfullofcheese
I was recently trying to use some code templates with Eclipse PDT 2.1 to speed up some common tasks. We use a lot of getters/setters, so I wrote the following template.
function get${word_selection}() {
return $$this->getData('${word_selection}');
}
function set${word_selection}($$${word_selection}) {
$$this->setData('${word_selection}', $$${word_selection});
}
I named the template "getset" and the only way I know to use the Code Assist is to type: "getset" then hit my code assist keys (I have it set to Esc, but I think the default was Ctrl+Space). The problem is, this doesn't actually let me select a word to be used by the ${word_selection}.
My question is: how do I type in my template name, hit the key combo, and have a word selected all at the same time?
