code collapse for vbscript/ASP

Post by johnradams »

OK, OK, stop the eye-rolling about vbscript and classic ASP!

I still have to maintain a considerable amount of classic ASP (vbscript and wsh).

It would be VERY NICE if webuilder could provide code-collapse for vbscript.

As far as I'm concerned, no need to provide anything more than:
(a) collapsing for Function ... End Function
(b) collapsing for Sub ... End Sub
(c) collpasing for comments would be nice, but less important

Thanks for your consideration.

These are advanced feature. Anyone else looking at this?

It would also be nice if someone can explain Collapsing code in English please?
When in doubt, use Brute Force Image

mithcd, a "code collapse" feature converts this (in vbscript):

Code: Select all

Function gargoo(arg1, arg2)
    Dim x
    x = (2 * arg1) + arg2
    gargoo = x + 77
End Function
into something like this:

Code: Select all

+Function gargoo(arg1, arg2)
and you can then click on the plus sign (+) to expand the function. Depending on how fancy the code-callapser is, it might also be able to collapse sections of code (loops, etc.).

WeBuilder already knows how to do code collapse for various languages -- but not vbscript. It woudl be VERY NICE if WeBuilder could do at least the most basic level of collapse for vbscript (functions and subs would be great!).
