iLogic Intellisense for VS Code

[ahmed.hagi]

Hello All,

We are planning to introduce version control for our iLogic code, and to avoid having to copy and paste code into rules, we are thinking of opting for external rules. Is it possible to get inventor API intellisense for VS Code?

Hello! Thanks for the speedy response.

I was just looking at that blog post!

We currently do use Visual Studio for debugging, but not for writing. This looks like a copy/paste situation. I would prefer to not have to do that 😞

If there is a way to setup a project in VS to include the inventor API and provide the intellisense on the external rules, that would be great.

You can add the autodesk.inventor.interop reference to your project and call it in your code.

Is there any way to have it recognize parameters that are defined in models?

ILogic has some predefined things that make it easier to access settings and the way to access them may be different in VS. You can help yourself with this link which includes several examples.

Hi Vincent, we are working with the API, the issue is that I am trying to introduce version control with git. As you know iLogic is embedded usually (unless external rules), it would be useful if there was a language server available for visual studio code, so iLogic could be modified in an external editor. But I guess this is not on the radar, we are stuck with the built in editor.
