Is there a tutorial to create an own Quickfix in Eclipse?

[frankmueller9]

Hello,

is there a tutorial how we can create our own Quickfix in Eclipse?

I would like to create a Quickfix, that adds the ABAP Doc to a method (like the standard), but additional it shall add the descriptions from the Dictonary Objects (Dataelements, Table Types...).

Best regards

Frank

However there are tutorials on programming Eclipse plugins (which this would be), and the question of extending quick fix is addressed in a number of places - e.g. https://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_implement_Quick_Fixes_for_my_own_language

Just search for eclipse plugin custom "quick fix" in a search engine.

There are some blogs on this site discussing some developments specifically in the ABAP space, and there are git repositories with plug ins you can look at it. This might be relevant to your specific needs.

When you've got your plug in working, please write a blog about it and show how you did it.

Hi Matthew,

thank you very much for your reply.

I never created an eclipse plugin before.

So I assume it will be a bigger project for me and I have to learn a lot of stuff for it.

Best regards
