ReSharper for C++ EAP Goes On

Posted on by

As you may have already heard, the Early Access Program for ReSharper with C++ support is in progress.

We’ve prepared a new build and wanted to share a quick update on what new features and options it brings to the table:

Better performance: indexes are now saved locally, meaning that subsequent launches are faster than the initial launch.

Improved code completion including smart completion.

More settings to customize code formatting style.

New control flow analyses that detect unreachable code, unitialized local variable, assigned value that is never used, and redundant ‘else’ keyword.

New quick-fixes including Create from usage for global variables, class and enum members.

Please note that there are still limitations in terms of supported project size (up to 40 MB), MS C++ extensions and MS preprocessor extensions. ReSharper C++ EAP page contains a full list of known issues and unsupported items, which you’re highly encouraged to examine before you decide to download and install an EAP build.
