List of Options

Return value constness of getter function for a user defined non-pointer/non-reference type

Related Bugs: "QTCREATORBUG-9413":https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-9413

Possible values

• Non-const return value
• Const return value
• Auto detect (For C+11: Non-const, otherwise: const)

For C+11 it's better to return non-const objects because of rvalue references / move semantics.

Example

A getMember() const;<code>
vs

const A getMember() const;

Affected Quick Fixes

• Create Getter and Setter Member Functions (GenerateGetterSetter)

Position of first curly brace of a function block

Possible values

• Same line as function name
• On new line
• Auto detect (check surrounding functions)

Example

void f() {
}

vs

void f()
{
}

Affected Quick Fixes

• Add Definition {Here, Inside Class, Outside Class, in file.cpp} (InsertDefFromDecl)
• Extract Function (Extract Function)
• Create Getter and Setter Member Functions (GenerateGetterSetter)
• Move Definition {Outside Class, to file.cpp} (MoveFuncDefOutside)
• Move Definition {to Class, to file.cpp} (MoveFuncDefToDecl)
• Insert Virtual Functions of Base Classes (InsertVirtualMethods)
