Question

Is there any shortcut to generate trace statements from selected variable, like ctrl-shift-0 in flash develop?
E.g.: If I select myVar in the below line and press “DesiredShortcut”:
var myVar=5;

I’d like to get:
var myVar=5;
trace(‘myVar=’+myVar);

Thanks

Consider using Live Templates.

For Java IntelliJ IDEA already has soutv template that will generate

System.out.println("var=" + var);

after pressing Tab.

You can define your own templates to log via your favorite logging framework.
