Version: (using KDE KDE 3.3.2) Installed from: Slackware Packages It would be very helpful if there was the same feature that exists already in Eclipse, with the Java language, when we want to find the declaration of a class or method. For doing this in Eclipse, one only have to put the cursor where the class is used(or where the method is being called) and press the F3 button. By doing this, Eclipse automatically searchs for the class/method desired and put the cursor where the class/method definition is, even if it's declared in another file.
this is already implemented AFAIK, we have both jump-to-declaration/definition as well as quick-open which is prefilled with the current word in the editor.
Andreas: Are you referring to the tool within the class browser? This is a very nice tool, but in eclipse, you needn't go to a separate pane to do this. Instead, you interact directly with the source code. When your cursor is on a method name, you can press f3 and be taken to the declaration. Furthermore it should work on all functions, not just members/methods.
no, I'm referring to the two shortcuts that exist for this purpose. See the configure shortcuts dialog, they're bound to Ctrl+. and Ctrl+, by default I think. In Kdevelop4 they're even available in the menu.
