vscode extension to create implementation for c++ function prototypes.

C++ Helper

C++ Helper extension for VSCode.

Features

• Generating implementation for c++ declarations.
• Generating header guard for headers.

Configuration

CppHelper.SourcePattern:

The array of possible patterns to find the source of a header file.

Example:

"CppHelper.SourcePattern": [
    "{FILE}.cpp",
    "{FILE}.c",
    "{FILE}.inl",
    "/src/{FILE}.cpp"
]

Where {FILE} is your active header file name.

If you don't want a relative pattern then put a / as first character.

CppHelper.HeaderGuardPattern:

The pattern of header guard. Example:

"CppHelper.HeaderGuardPattern": "{FILE}_H"

Where {FILE} is your active header file name in UPPERCASE format.

CppHelper.ContextCreateImplementation

Show or hide "Create Implementation" in context menu.

CppHelper.ContextCreateImplementationHere

Show or hide "Create Implementation Here" in context menu.

CppHelper.ContextCreateHeaderGuard

Show or hide "Create Header Guard" in context menu.

Known Issues

If you implement a previously implemented function duplicate implementation will happen.

This extension created using regex and there is no parser/compiler. so any wrong implementation may happen. If you found any wrong implementation please let me know in issues and also don't forget to send your code sample.
