Title: Function listing ?
Post by: webspy on April 14, 2006, 02:04:21 pm

Is there any function listing feature in Code Blocks ? I mean, is it possible to display the function header after  "(" (writing "CreateWindowEx(" will display the function header) ?

Uhh you mean the function parameters? Then yes. I think you need AutoComplete enabled, and maybe CodeCompletion......

No.

The code completion parser is a work-in-progress, and as such will not yet magically handle macros like CreateWindowEx and 90% of the rest of the Win32 API. For your own simple functions it will usually work.

I'm a beginner in Win32 programming and code/function completion would help me very much. So is there any other way to make it easier for me to program using CodeBlocks ?

1. Use wxWidgets (cross-platform GUI toolkit).  :D

2. MSDN might help you with Win32 API calls.

3. Wait for code completion to be finished.
