Toggle Function Definition
-
-
Toggle Function Definition moves a function definition inside an C/C++ source editor from one
-position to another and preserves correctness.
-
-
Toggling is available whenever the cursor is inside a function declaration
-or definition. Any selection between the first and the last character of
-the function definition (without comments) is considered valid for toggling.

Toggle free functions
-
The refactoring moves free functions from an implementation file to a header file with the same name and back.
- If the header file does not exist the file is created.
-
-
Toggle member functions
-
The function definition of a member function can by moved from the class declaration in the header file to an inline definition
- in the header file to the implementation file and back to the class definition.

Toggle Function Definition
+
+ Use the Refactor > Toggle Function Definition
+ command to toggle the location where a function is defined.
+
+
+ In an Editor window, place the cursor inside a function declaration
+ or definition, then run Refactor > Toggle
+ Function Definition from the context menu. Any cursor position
+ between the first and the last characters of the function definition
+ (but not including comments preceding the function) will cause that
+ function to be selected for the refactoring.
+
+
+
+
+
This refactoring switches a function definition from a header
+ file to a correspondingly-named implementation file. If the necessary
+ file does not exist, it will be created (after a confirmation
+ dialog).
+
+ 
+
+
For methods, it can also switch the method from being defined
+ within its parent class declaration to being defined using an inline
+ definition in the same header file.
