I would like to have description of variables and function in proposals for c++ in eclipse.
In java such description exists.
Does anyone know if it is possible to have such description (e.g. taken from doxygen type comments) for c++ function in eclipse?

  • Eclipse already has a similar function to "Intellisense", however for this to work, your project has to be properly indexed, and all your methods must have proper doxygen style comments. It works nicely in NetBeans too... – Nim Nov 03 '11 at 14:25
  • @Nim What you mean by "properly indexed". Is there need for some specific settings? – Andrzej Nov 04 '11 at 10:26
  • @JoeyRoosing I think it is not co-working with eclipse :| (But may be I'm wrong). – Andrzej Nov 04 '11 at 11:10
  • @Andrzej, indexing basically scans your source tree and determines all the types/members etc. so that the proposals work. How the indexing is enabled is IDE specific, it'll be an option on Eclipse CDT somewhere.. – Nim Nov 04 '11 at 12:47
  • @andrzej Ah u specifically meant eclipse. I could have read over it. Sorry if that is the case. And you are right. My comment mainly talks about visual studoo. That is not an option for you? – Joey Roosing Nov 04 '11 at 15:26
