Hi, everyone

I started practicing writing a class that inherits from System.Windows.Forms.Form . In the process of writing the class code, I found a problem. When I type “This.”, I see a list of members as shown below: My question is, why doesn't it show all the members of System.Windows.Forms.Form, such as its properties, methods, etc.?

Is this a bug?

What happens, if you select "All Methods"?

Hi, FFF

A screenshot is showing all.

I mean this list doesn't show all the members. If I need to call a method or assign a value to a property, I have to consult the documentation.

Hi xinjie,

It's a bug, will open a ticket for this to be fixed.

I think those related problems come from the fact that in VFP all classes eventually inherit from a base "Custom" class, while in .Net all classes inherit from System.Object. In X# we need to support both cases for the VFP dialect and the DEFINE CLASS syntax, and it becomes complicated.

If you use the standard X# base syntax for defining a class (CLASS name INHERIT type) then memeber completion works as expected, but I am not suggesting that you should change your code, the problem in member completion needs to be fixed. Maybe until it's fixed, you can temporarily use the standard syntax though.

Hi, Chris

Thank you for confirming!
