Some features related to code completion

(1/2) > >>

csh:
Is it possible to add the following features to CodeBlocks?


* When I write printf(, I can't see the prototype of the function printf, while I can see the prototypes of some C and C++ functions. CodeBlocks can be able to show the prototypes of all the functions.
* A short explanation of the current used function shown with the prototype of the function (like on Visual Studio). These explanations may be taken from a definition database file, and the database definition file format can be developed if there isn't such a format.
* Making CodeBlocks use code completion database files like on Visual Studio intellisense.
* When a function prototype is shown, the name and return type of that function isn't shown. Making CodeBlocks show also the name and return type of the used function.
* When a function has more than one prototype, each prototype may be shown on a different page, and each page may be shown by up/down arrow keys like on Visual Studio.

...you did search the forums before, right?! :lol:

csh:
No, I didn't do search so much for these bugs, but I am using CodeBlocks so much, and I see that new versions become better and better. If all the bugs I mentioned were already discussed on the forum, I am sorry.

csh,

Code completion is a daunting task. If you read what Ceniza is doing you would understand the complexity of the whole process.
Parsing C functions is a breeze compared to C++. I myself is waiting with high anticipation to see what Ceniza and his team comes up with!

Best regards,

Thanks for your reply joubertdj.
I hope Ceniza and his team will be successful on this project. If I can, I want to implement some features related to code completion.
