Class Documentation

#InterSystems IRIS #VSCode

I like to add documentation to the top of every class I write. Is there a way to modify or create a template that would automatically add the lines below to the top of the class? I primarily use Studio IDE but would like to be able to do this using VS Code as well. 

 

/// Organization:
/// Version 1.0
/// Author/Co-author:
/// Project: 
/// Date: 
/// Description: 
/// Change Log:
/// Notes:

 

Thanks.

Phil, I'm not sure about VS Code, but you can do this in studio by creating a new CSP page with the following contents:

<csp:StudioSimpleTemplate name="CustomCommentHead" type="CLS" mode="new">
/// Organization:
/// Version 1.0
/// Author/Co-author:
/// Project: 
/// Date: 
/// Description: 
/// Change Log:
/// Notes:

Then save and compile that file. It doesn't matter where. Then when you click File, New, Custom, you'll see your CustomCommentHead template. If you choose it, you'll get a .cls file with those lines already inserted.
