Hi,
is it possible to toggle between a .cc file and a .h file with the same
name in the editor? What I mean is, I want to open e.g. a file with the
name "code.h" in the editor if file "code.cc" is the currently opened
one. And of course the other way round.
Thanks,
Michal

The closest thing is the "show declaration" (somewhat equivalent to your
c file -> h file toggle) and "show definition" (somewhat equivalent to
your h file -> c file toggle) tools. Select an element (like a class or
a function), right click on it and you'll have these options.
To do this, you'll need an indexer to be configured for your project:
Right click on the project in the navigator, hit properties, go to
indexer, select FULL indexer (slow) or CTAGS (fast) indexer.. whichever
works better for you. Then close and reopen the project to make sure the
indexer kicks in.

I believe there is an enhancement request on this. If not, please open one.
I used this feature a lot when I worked in Visual Studio. It's handy
when implementing methods of a class and you want to keep refering back
to the class definition.

The indexer is activated for my Project. I used FULL indexer and
I also tried now the CTAGS indexer (with default settings). And in both
cases the same behaviour (like described below). Nothing happens.
I am not sure, but is it possible that it runs into a timeout while
trying to find the definition/declaration?
