FIXME, TODO, and other notes in Qt Creator

Page

Is there some view in Qt Creator I could use to get faster to FIXME and TODO comments? If not, is there any workaround? It would help me a lot…

No. I used this feature in Eclipse, but QtCreator don’t have this. I hope this is temporarily…

Would be big plus to have this in Qt Creator!

Write “Qt”, not “QT” (QuickTime).

I used this feature in KDevelop and it was very useful…

Please file a feature request in our bugtracker [bugreports.qt.nokia.com]

Suggestions won’t get lost in a bugtracker while they will at some point vanish from the easily accessible front pages of the forum!

Hi there.

I created a plugin that displays comments for //FIXME blabla //TODO etc.

The Keywords are configurable.

At the moment I am checking if it is ok for my company to let me make the code public. Until then you can head over to the Plugin Gallery [developer.qt.nokia.com] in the Wiki (section “display todo / fixme etc. comments”) to check it out.

At the moment you cannot download it anywhere. I have to wait for the clearance of my boss to make it available to the public. I think I know more in the next few days. If my boss decides that it is ok I will put the sources online soon.

This is great, Markus! Let me know if you need some support to convince your boss. I have some nice arguments I can pull out of my top drawer if needed. ;)

Tobias, is there something not good for you at Vass’ plugin? Or you just want to look at alternative?

No, I am just trying to stay up to date… I just noticed though that Markus said in the thread about Vass’ plugin that he can not release his code due to company policy:-/

I’ve always just Ctrl+F’ed for them or had syntax highlighting making them red so perhaps I’m missing something.

I’ve never thought of having it appear in the Build warnings. But, I don’t understand why this is better exactly. Having them appear when you build that is.
Why not have a separate window that shows TODOs/FIXMEs. Then if you’re looking for something to do, you can jump in to this.

xsacha, just look at it from this angle:
Pane you’ve called “build messages” one can call “issues” and it contains build issues (from compiler) and code issues (from FIXME, TODO, etc.).

But I have never really thought of it as showing ‘code’ issues. Is a TODO really an issue? I think of them more as plans. I prefer a separate list, unrelated to the building process.

xsacha, I’m agreed with you. It is just a feature to show them as part of issues. If you lok at Vass’ plgin there is a setting that allows you to choose between issues and separate list of todos.
