I mostly use CLion these days for C++ development... and while it's generally a nice IDE, I
It has a few caveats, however:
- You have to do each function one at a time
- It's a two step process - it will first shift it to outside the class declaration, but still within the header file, as an inline definition... you then have to scroll down to it, click on it again, and move it to the .cpp file.
- You have to have a defintion; so for cases where I know I'm going to want it in the .cpp at the outset, I have to add an empty definition ({}), then click on it, before moving.
Why don't I just use Eclipse / CDT full time? Good question... but my answer started to veer off topic a bit, so I put it in another post..
*Update! A friend showed me that CLion does, indeed have an intention - just go to the declaration, press "Alt-Enter", then choose "Implement function 'foo'" - or, if it's already defined in the header, click on the name, hit"Alt-Enter", then choose "Move function definition to source file". Huzzah!
