[Qt-creator] About a new feature

[Ladnar, Marc]

Hi John & Flo,

I have been asking for that, too, just some days ago. Would be a nice 
feature.

If you want to do that, I have some requests ^^ (Sorry for that 
"attack")
Maybe you can make a plugin that integrates into the new file dialog, 
too, and provides there with a list of templates that one can build up, 
e.g. new C-Class, new Startup-Window, new Sub-Window, new UIs, custom 
.pro file, new ... It could be implemented in a new Tree or a new root 
entry inside the tree in that dialog.
And I think there should be an entry inside the settings, too, where one 
can add template directories, like standard ones on mounted servers, 
local ones in home directory, ...
Which variables are you going to add there? Filename, user, date, 
datetime, classname, super class (for subclasses)... Most of these 
things could be taken from that new file dialog... The rest could be 
added inside the settings where the template directories are added.

I think it would be great to have that feature.

Looking forward on first implementations,

Marc

Betreff: [Qt-creator] About a new feature

Hi everybody!

We are two french developers and are currently thinking about 
programming a Qt-Creator plugin.
This idea is to develop a plugin which can manage the creation of new 
files with a template associated with keywords.
This fonctionnaly is available in Eclipse and others IDE and is quite 
useful.
A good way to keep all files of a project uniforms.
So you could create in your settings a custom template for your C++ 
files, something like :

/*********************
*
* @{file_name}
* Created by: @{user}
* Date : @{date}
*
**********************/

And some other stuff like this, it will be simple first and improved 
constently with custom keywords, default templates, etc.

What do you think about this idea ?
Thanks for reading and have a good evening

John & Flo
