| <p>The <strong>C/C++ editor</strong> provides specialized features for editing C/C++ related files.</p> |
| <p><img src="../images/view_editor.png" alt="C/C++ Editor" ></p> |
| <p>Associated with the editor is a C/C++-specific <a href="cdt_u_outline_view.htm">Outline</a> view, |
| which shows the structure of the active C, C++ or makefile. It is updated as you edit these files.</p> |
| |
| <p>The editor includes the following features:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Syntax highlighting</li> |
| <li>Content/code assist</li> |
| <li>Integrated debugging features</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p>The most common way to invoke the C/C++ editor is to open a file from |
| the Project Explorer or the C/C++ Project views using pop-up menus or by clicking the file |
| (single or double-click depending on the user preferences).</p> |
| |
| <p>The C/C++ editor does not contain a toolbar itself, but relies on the use of the main |
| <a href="cdt_u_toolbar.htm">toolbar</a>, <a href="cdt_u_m_edit.htm">Edit menu</a>, <a href="cdt_u_m_search.htm">Search menu </a> |
| and key binding actions.</p> |
