4.3.2 Code Templates

Code Templates are an element of Content Assist that provide starting points for frequently used sections of code. When you enter a letter combination followed by Ctrl+Space, a list of code templates that begin with that letter combination is displayed. Select one and it is automatically inserted into the file at the current cursor location.

Try this: after entering the #include lines in Figure 4.3, type “ma” Ctrl+Space. This brings up a template for the main() function. Note that the format of templates is independent of whichever Code Style you’ve selected and the default is KR. You can edit templates at Window?Preferences?C/C++?Editor?Templates. We’ll take a closer look at that later in the chapter. Other aspects of Content Assist can also be customized under Preferences.
