How to map legacy global to a class using VisualStudio Editor?

#Globals #Mapping #ObjectScript #Caché #InterSystems IRIS #VSCode

In cache studio there are features, dialog boxes, that help map data from a global to class properties.
I have used %CacheSQLStorage quit a bit, or have in the past, to map globals to classes.

I haven't been able to find a similar feature in VisualStudio.
Do I need to upgrade to IRIS to be able to use VisualStudio to map global properties to classes?

Thanks for your time,
Richard

There isn't an equivalent to the Inspector's Storage editor in VS Code yet. That's on our roadmap but we don't have an ETA for it yet due to design challenges. You will have to edit the Storage block directly in the class's text. There is hover documentation and code completion support for Storage blocks in VS Code, which Studio did not have:

I hope you find this helpful.
