Description
The CodeEditor object provides access to the TestComplete Code Editor from script extensions. The object provides properties that let you obtain or modify the code in the active Code Editor instance and determine the text that is currently selected.
| Note: | The CodeEditor object can only be used in the script extension code. It does not exist in TestComplete scripts. |

PropertiesExample
The following example demonstrates how to use the CodeEditor object to insert the Log.Message method call to the code displayed in the Code Editor panel:
JScript
function InsertLogMessage()
{
var oMethodCall = Syntax.CreateInvoke();
oMethodCall.ClassValue = "Log";
oMethodCall.InvokeName = "Message";
oMethodCall.IsProperty = false;
oMethodCall.AddParameter("Hello, world!");
var strCode = Syntax.GenerateSource(oMethodCall) + "\r\n";
if (CodeEditor.IsEditorActive)
{
if (CodeEditor.CursorPos == CodeEditor.Text.length)
CodeEditor.Text += strCode;
else
CodeEditor.Text = aqString.Insert(CodeEditor.Text, strCode, CodeEditor.CursorPos);
}
}
VBScript
Sub InsertLogMessage
Dim oMethodCall, strCode
Set oMethodCall = Syntax.CreateInvoke
oMethodCall.ClassValue = "Log"
oMethodCall.InvokeName = "Message"
oMethodCall.IsProperty = False
oMethodCall.AddParameter "Hello, world!"
strCode = Syntax.GenerateSource(oMethodCall) & vbNewLine
If CodeEditor.IsEditorActive Then
If CodeEditor.CursorPos = Len(CodeEditor.Text) Then
CodeEditor.Text = CodeEditor.Text & strCode
Else
CodeEditor.Text = aqString.Insert(CodeEditor.Text, strCode, CodeEditor.CursorPos)
End If
End If
End Sub
