Change code template for getter and setter methods

[Simon Schories]

How might I change the code templates Flash Builder 4 uses for creating getter and setter methods automatically? I can change templates for class generation, but can not find any getter and setter templates ...?

Hi Simmerl,

You can go to Preferences->Flash Builder -> Editors -> Code Templates ->ActionScript and edit the templates for getter and setter.

You can also type 'templates' in search text box under preferences and you would be directed to all code templates.

hope this helps.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply. Actually I had found that setting, but it only consists of ActionScript-File, ActionScript-Class and ActionScript-Interface templates. That is what I am wondering about. Where are the other templates hidden?

[Anshulg-rrQjPP]

check inside Editoren. can you tell your build number?

[Simon Schories]

There is no template section inside. I could not find any in the other relevant submenus neither.

It’s Flash Builder 4.0.1 (Build 277662)

I think you are using generate getter/setter option?

You can not change template for that. Its auto generated.

So, is it deeply implemented into the Flash Builder source .classes? That would be a pity.

Is it at least possible to force Flash Builder to put opening { brackets inline with the function’s head?

public function get value() :String {

     (...)

}

instead of

public function get value():String

{

     (...)

}

Thanks for your reply.

As of now its not a template for method generation. you can log an enhancement for it.
