Header Flip Feature

[rioch]

Is it possible to add a button that, if you have a c++ source file open and push it, it will open the associated header?

Hi,

Which DPack feature, i.e. browser, would that be for?

Thanks.

Also, if you could provide steps to reproduce that behavior, that would be helpful too. I honestly don't work much with C++ projects and that's why I'm asking. Thanks.

It could be for the file browser. I'm not too sure where it would go. Let me tell you where I'm coming from. We use an add on here called Workspace Whiz, which pretty much does what DPack does (except DPack integrated much better - the docking is what I love). Anyway, this addon also has a toolbar with a button (amongst others) to flip between header and source. I thought it might be nice here too.

I think I get it now. The way I see it, you'll be able to navigate as usual, and if file happens to have a "related" file, like .design files for C# or VB, or header for C++ source, then an extra button will become available. You'll be able to either press that button to open a "related" file, or use whatever new keyboard hotkey I'll come up with for that.

I've added your request to the queue. I'll try getting it into the next major release after the next one, i.e. into v2.10.x as oppose to v2.9.x one. Thanks for your suggestions.

Hi everyone!
Is this feature implemented in last version?

[Sergey]

Hasn't made it in yet I'm afraid.
