In Vim(TagList) and SourceInsight, the function list will dynamically focus on the function name according to where the cursor lies.

That is, when the cursor is in the function A, I want the outline view to jump the function A.
This is very useful when I am in a long function, whose length extends the screen. Then, I can double click the function name and go to the head of the function. This is very important to me to browse code.

How can I do this eclipse CDT?
if yes, could you tell me ?
if no, where can I send my feature request?

In the Outline View window click on the small triangle in the top right to open the context menu. There you should select "Link with editor".

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ

It works!
Thank you very much!

Why does not CDT make this as its default behavior?
I think it is very useful for browsing code.
