Generate closing tag

[bardware]

Hi,

I worked on some code over the past days and uses code as editor. I noticed that very often I took an <cfif tag and copied it to another line in the code. Then I needed a closing tag and have no idea how to get it other than writing it myself. In cfeclipse I go to the end of the opening tag and position the cursor right in front of the > symbol. When I now press > a closing tag is generated which I can cut and paste at the position where I need it.
Does your plugin provide a similar functionality?

I assume you're describing functionality similar to the way html files will auto-close tags when the tag is completed, something like this?

If that's what you're trying to achieve, unfortunately this plugin will not do it. My understanding is that this would require a language server instead of just the snippets that this plugin provides. The proposal to add a language server to this plugin has been discussed in depth but as far as I know there is no real development being done on it.

OK, thanks for the reply. I had no idea it might be complicated. Thanks for the pointer to the discussion regarding the language server.
