We have some exciting news for those of you who are used to work with IDEs and use the autocomplete feature. You now can enjoy autocomplete hints in your favorite IDE while you integrate the DHTMLX components into your web app. We provide the autocompletion plugins for Microsoft Visual Studio, PHPStorm, WebStorm, NetBeans, Aptana Studio, Eclipse, and others.
To add the code completion for DHTMLX library into your IDE:
- download the package with necessary files
- read the instructions below
Visual Studio 2010 | Visual Studio 2008
- copy dhtmlx.debug.js in the same folder where dhtmlx.js is located
- if you are using an individual component (not dhtmlx.js), rename dhtmlx.debug.js to {component}.debug.js and place in the same folder where the .js file of the component is located
