something in VC++ MS Visual Studio bugging me ... do you know ?

[messiah]

something in VC++ MS Visual Studio is bugging me ... do you know what the key short cut is that makes the cursor jump to the corresponding parenthesis of a compound statement in VC++ ?? even if the parenthesis pair is deeply nested ?


example :-

void ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail
{
if (true)
{
while (true)
{
if (true)
{ // <--------------- cursor at opening parenthesis a).

cout << "I love Jordan" << endl;

} // corresponding clossing parenthesis b) in compound
statement.
}
}
}

I just use Resharper with C#... sorry mate.....

Try this:


void ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail
{

// no brackets needed for just one statement
if (true)
while (true)
{
if (true) // no brackets needed for just one statement
cout << "I love Jordan" << endl;

}

}

Sorry mate

You guys give up too easy, here is my second attempt to help:

void ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail
{

// no brackets needed at all
for(;
cout << "I love Jordan\n";

}

Hell, I am on a roll today, 3rd version:

void ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail
{
cout << "I love Jordan\n";
ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail();
}

[AtW]

I am still not out of ideas here, 4th version:

#define begin {
#define end }

void ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail
begin

cout << "I love Jordan\n";
ExpectASarcasticOrSnottyReplyToThisEmail();

end

}

depends which version you're on

in VC6 it is ctrl+]
in VS .net depends on what mode you have it in
go to tools, options, environment, keyboard, type brace into the search box

It's no coincidence that .net rhymes with .tulipe...

Have you thought about learning 6502 assembly language?
