Qt Creator 2.4.0 beta released

Qt Creator 2.4 beta has been released today, containing a great number of smaller and bigger improvements and new features. The biggest improvement is definitely the new "synchronize declaration and definition" quick fix, which helps you to do exactly that: whenever you change a method declaration or definition Qt Creator tries to find its counterpart in your sources and headers. If it finds the counterpart you have to option to apply a quick fix (denoted by a little light bulb and invokable also with the Alt+Return shortcut) that will make the counterpart match the changes you did to the method. Together with the improvements to the "insert definition from declaration" quick fix (it will now minimize the names by e.g. throwing away unnecessary namespaces, and find a much more suitable spot in the code), this is a real productivity boost when writing C++ code. The QML editor also got lots of news, so for example a real "Rename usages" functionality and semantic highlighting. Additionally the coding style options, both for C++ and QML got redesigned to be saved as "schemes", so it is easy now to re-use coding style settings in different projects, and also to share them. Other new features and improvements include: There have been lots of QML debugging bugs fixed, especially for mixed QML/C++ debugging Even the preferences dialog should fit nicely onto a netbook now The "advanced search" got a UI overhaul and you can access your most recent searches now Much more. Read more @ Qt Labs. Download this new release from Qt Creator Downloads.
