Hi All,

Again, thanks for all the hard work that goes into this great compiler. I definitely find it to be the best C++ IDE out there.

I've been doing lots Java development using Eclipse, and two of the small features that If find incredibly useful are the Link With Editor button that links the current open file with the Package Explorer, and the Open Resource, which lets you type in some resource name to open it. Those two features used together provide a really fast way to open files and view the directories that they are stored in.

Now that I'm doing C++ work in C::B I really find myself missing those features. Does anybody else feel the same way? How much work would it be to add these to C::B?

Cheers,

Joseph.

Hi !

You can try alt + g
It lists all files that belongs to your project.

Not only does Alt-G list the files, it filters them by partial input of the name.

So if I have files CodesSnippets.cpp and CodeSnippetsApp.cpp, and I type Alt-G then "app", I see only the files with the phrase "app" in them.

It's great!

Brilliant! Excuse my hastiness in requesting an already existing feature  :?
