Forums » Help » Good IDE with code completion for external libraries

I have begun using Impact and loving it.
I plan on making several small games and therefore I have moved Impact away from the game code itself. This is due to me having made extensions for Impact which I do not want to copy around each time I make a new game.

My problem is that I can not get code completion on the Impact parts of my game code. This only seems to work when the Impact code is located in the same library as the game code.

I have been using Netbeans for a while and am used to it. I can not find any way to configure NB to make proper code completion for my Impact games, so I am looking for an IDE which have good code completion and proper project management.

I have tried some of the light-weight programs suggested in here which have good code completion, but most of them can not handle more projects open at the same time.

Does anyone have some experience with an IDE which have good completion regarding the use of external JS libraries AND proper project management ?

Have you looked at webStorm http://www.jetbrains.com/webstorm/ I think they still have a 30 day trial. I am currently using it with the main impact lib split out from each game project.

I tried Webstorm, but I found that I could only have one project open at a time.
Was I wrong or ?

I use this: http://www.sublimetext.com/2

Most of the web development world is fairly certain that Sublime Text 2 is the second coming of Jesus.

You can keep multiple projects open, and do about a million other amazing things with plugins. Google \ Youtube for it to watch vids of how to get it setup and being awesome. Once you install this: http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control you can install plugins from within the editor itself.

Let me know if you have any other questions about it.

jswart, do you have in ST2 any code completion that makes sense?
