And by Code completion i mean that when i define a variable named var : Integer, code completion should allow me to see the attributes of such type allong with attached help, whlile defining records tagged records i also could have accesss to the defined fields, .... apex allows only to visit the body or specification but it isn't enough. If Ada is designed for large scale projects such abilities should be built in ... i suppose. Pehaps it is good idea to propose a community Request list like in Java that should allow users to point the needs of extensons for this language. What do You think. Mariusz
