SAPUI5 MVC Pattern and Eclipse Outline View
Hi All,
I didn’t notice at first, but a few weeks ago, when I opened the Outline view when editing the view and controller files (created by the SAPUI5 plugin using the MVC Pattern), I found out that it was empty.
As the code grows and get more complex it became a bit of a pain jumping around to each of the functions, so I decided to look for a solution for this problem.
I found out a reference of a very good blog in the stackoverflow forum with the solution.
To be brief, to get the outline view working it is necessary to use a JSDOC comment with the following tag:
/**
* @memberOf parentNamepath
*/
I think it would be nice to have the SAPUI5 plugin creating the initial code with these comments. What you think?
Best regards,
Christian
Hi Christian, a good tip! I forwarded your proposal to the UI5 tool dev colleagues. They'll have a look at it. Regards, Bertram
Thanks Bertram! 🙂

Hi Christian,
your proposal gets implemented in the UI5 Eclipse Tools and will be available with the next SAPUI5 Eclipse tools version. See Note 1747308 - Installation Guide UI development toolkit for HTML5 (SAPUI5) and have a look at the related SAP note for the 1.12.6 Eclipse plugins installation that gets released on July 22 (bi-weekly patches).
Regards, Bertram

Hi,
this is very useful, thank you =)
Is there also a way to do this with the controller?

Hi Jan,
yes, the same can be done for the controller (this will also be part of the next UI5 Eclipse Tools patch).
