Vim smart insert semicolon

Question

Is there a Vim plugin that can handle smart semicolon insertion, like the one in Eclipse?

Example (pipe character is insertion cursor):

foobar(|)
         


        

Answer 1

I use the following function and a mapping to insert a semicolon to the end of the line and to delete the remaning spaces:

imap . =Semicolonfun()
fun! Semicolonfun() "{{{
  call setline(line('.'), substitute(getline('.'), '\s*$', ';', ''))
  return "\"
endfunction "}}}

So if you have something like:

log.warning("you miss the |identifier")

Pressing . or ,. if you remap the leader, you get the following:

log.warning("you miss the identifier");|
