Visual Sidekick Tour - Code Generation

Code Generation

Visual Sidekick provides a fast alternate to the Class Wizard for generating code:
  • Generate C++ method body stubs from a class declaration (header) with a simple keypress in the Visual Studio Editor (Ctrl+Shift+G). For example, write the class specification in the header file, then switch to the source file, position the cursor where you want the bodies to appear and hit Ctrl+Shift+G.
  • Add additional C++ methods to any class, and let Visual Sidekick generate body stubs for these new methods. When Ctrl+Shift+G is pressed, Visual Sidekick will scan all relevant header and source files and generate methods for all unimplemented functions and methods.
You type in the class header...
...and let Visual Sidekick generate the bodies for you.
