Hello,
what about a Code assistance for 3rd party libs and frameworks. like it is working for inellij.
maybe it would be possible to be able to parse the one created for intellij so the providers of those packages don't have to create two different versions.
Behind this link you can find more on how it is done on for the intellij lua plugin and what I mean.
https: //bitbucket.org/sylvanaar2/lua-for-idea/wiki/Home
Take a note on:
Setting Up Custom API's
Setting Up Custom Libraries
Setting Up Custom Documentation
The code is open source.
it would be cool if something similar would also exist in Kkoneki.

Right now Koneki has this in a beta release. For more info, go to:
wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/Technical_Discussions/User_Assistance
For the beta release, go to:
91.121.117.128/koneki/products/
Some discussion did happen between IntelliJ IDEA for Lua author (Jon Akhtar) and Koneki folks (Benjamin Cabé et al from Sierra Wireless) on the Lua mailing list last November about having a common API documentation model, but I don't know what came of it.
Speaking as a Lua API developer and documenter - I don't personally care if the two API documentation formats of IntelliJ and Koneki are different, because we don't write them by hand anyway. We start with some base form of comments (in my case Doxygen style comments in C/C++ files, above each C function that is exposed in the API), and use a script to convert them to whatever other format we want. So if Koneki and IntelliJ are different, it's only one conversion script to write, and only write it once, for all future API code. Besides, the type of info in the Koneki API docs is much more informative/expressive than IntelliJ, and I wouldn't want to lose that for people who prefer Koneki over IntelliJ - while the external HTML doc model of IntelliJ is good as well and I wouldn't want to lose that for folks who prefer IntelliJ.

Hi Vadimo,
Vadimo B wrote on Mon, 27 February 2012 13:38Maybe one of the Koneki developer could provide a road map on when this feature might be available?
We plan to merge the beta stuff into the main branch as soon as the Eclipse Intellectual Property team will have validated that we can use the couple of new Lua libraries we depend on (projects developed at eclipse.org have pretty strict rules about what libraries can be reused, depending on their license and stuff...).
The overall roadmap of Koneki is available here.
There you'll see that we would like to have the content assist feature available by the end of March, for 0.8M2. In the meantime, I'd encourage you to give feedback on the beta version so as we can be sure that most of the basic requirements are actually addressed.
Looking forward to getting your feedback on the beta then ...
Cheers!
