Constructor Request

[sitefinitysteve]

You know how right now you have the ability to create a constructor?

Could you give us another one to create a constructor that also passes in all the properties and initializes them?

So it would take this

public class AlphaPagerItem {
     public string Text { get; set; }
     public string Url { get; set; }
     public string Class { get; set; }
 }

ANd do this

public class AlphaPagerItem {
     public AlphaPagerItem(string text, string url, string cssClass)
     {
           this.Text = text;
           this.Url = url;
           this.CssClass = cssClass;
     }

     public string Text { get; set; }
     public string Url { get; set; }
     public string CssClass { get; set; }
 }

Going the extra mile would be the ability to remove properties before it "saves"

...thoughts?

Hello Steve,

 Thanks for the suggestion.
We will discuss it within the team. I was thinking to pop up an additional window to the current command that will allow you to select which properties to pass and if none selected to create constructor without parameters.

Thanks.

Kind regards,

If you could work it such that keystrokes would just work, that'd be fantastic...generally I hate having to move from keyboard to a mouse in a popup....like the replace dialog that pops up, always feel I need to go to the mouse to make sure I'm not replacing solution-wide

Google your competitors "Smart Constructor"

Hi,

 Right now you can generate constructor by selecting the properties that you want to include for initialization. But this way you can't skip any.
Thanks.

All the best,

Oh!?...how?  Is there any documentation or video...or?

I tried just screwing around with Ctrl-~ on a new class and couldn't see (wasn't obvious)

Hi,

 Indeed, it seems there is a lapse in the documentation which I will fix right now. Here is the demo.
Thanks.

OH!  See that's not even obvious from the JC UI that it would even happen!...documentation aside

Thanks
