Distinguish classes from interfaces about apex-umlcanvas HOT 6 CLOSED

@afawcett - I had a thought about how to deal with this. While the tooling API doesn't distinguish between classes and interfaces, it does show in the tableDeclaration where the class is defined. It gives the specific line number in the body of the class. It would not be hard to query the body from the ApexClass, split it into a line array, and then find the line that the declaration is on. From there it would be a simple matter to do a string.containsIgnoreCase('interface') to distinguish between the two types. From there we modify the name of the file to include "<< interface>>" in the UML diagram.

Do you have any thoughts or suggestions here? Is there something in the tooling API that I have missed that would reveal this?

Please let me know when you can as that is probably the next task that I will tackle.

Cheers!

Last i checked at 29.0 was still not implemented, i will check again in 30.0 (which seems to have been delayed again). If not, yeah i like your workaround, see the LineReader here, https://gist.github.com/afawcett/8090245

I checked a v30.0 sandbox and it does not have way to distinguish between classes and interfaces. I would be curious if it is even on the ToolingAPI roadmap. Do you have contacts at SFDC that could let us know?

Yeah I can, let me see what i can find out.

@afawcett - Were you able to find out anything from SFDC about the ToolingAPI roadmap?

Not as yet, I've sent a nudge email.
