@:noCompletion

[Gang Sun]

I found there are many @:noCompletion in the source code, and the official description is
@:noCompletion : does not list the field as part of compiler completion results (since 3.0).

What it means?

thanks.

[Juraj Kirchheim]

It means that the field will not show up during completion. There is
also @:noUsing, which makes a static field non-eligible for
`using`-extensions.

Juraj

I am not sure about the effect of "the field will not show up during completion".

what scenario we use this metadata? remove the definition? or just don't let other modules to use it.

I am lack of some basic concept. what means the completion, which means "compling or link to the target"?

thanks.

If an editor is making use of Haxe completion, then when you type things like object. you will get a list of its fields and methods etc, @:noCompletion will hide that particular field/method from appearing in the list. It does not mean you cannot 'use' it, only that you will not be told of its existance by completion.

thank you very much.
