<pre style="white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">In principle I like it, but I don't think the "remove characters one by one" approach is a particularily good one. Can you maybe use the QMLJS lexer to lex the remainder of the line, and then have some simple logic to decide which tokens form a complete expression?</pre>

<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">This patch adds support for field member expressions ("base.identifier") to the QML/JS code-completion. When "something." is typed by the user, KDevelop displays the list of symbols accessible from the inner context of something. "something" can be any expression recognized by ExpressionVisitor, so this will continue to work when ExpressionVisitor will be able to recognize "table["test"][repository.getIndice()].".
The patch is inspired from how Python handles such completion. The idea is to try to parse as much as possible of the line being edited, in order to have the most complete AST possible. When this is done, ExpressionVisitor is given the current context and visits this partial AST. The declaration it returns (if any) is used to get the code-completion items.
The only thing that doesn't quite please me in this patch is that I parse the current line several times (each time with one character removed from the left). It means that if the user is editing a very long line (say 200 characters), QmlJS::Document::parse will be called up to 200 times! Is there another mean to detect which part of the current line contains a valid expression? Do you think that it would be worth it to complexify the code by trying to skip more than one character each time (for instance, by skipping directly to the next dot or bracket).</pre>

For instance, the completions shown at the cursor (|) in this snippet are all the completions valid in button:
Label {
id: foo
bar: "baz"
Button {
id: button
property int my_property;
}
onTest: {
console.log(button.|); // my_property listed
