Re: Should Declare use be avoided as much as possible?
I think it's good practice to use declares from a documentation point of view, they tell you at a glance whats
in the source and there's absolutely no penalty from using them since they're not compiled into the executable.
They're simply required in some cases when there's a forward reference since the compiler only does a single pass
declare simply adds the function to the compilers symbol table and functions prototypes so it can do type checks
and what not.

C provides the infinitely-abusable goto statement, and labels to branch to. Formally, the goto is never necessary, and in practice it is almost always easy to write code without it. We have not used goto in this book. -- K&R (2nd Ed.) : Page 65

Notepad++ doesn't...

Write a plugin. There are a few function list plugins available for Notepad++ for ideas.Tenaja wrote:Notepad++ doesn't...

sure it shows you the functions but not the parameters,though if your implementing a class you generally need to declare the functionsBlood wrote:The IDE does that.idle wrote:I think it's good practice to use declares from a documentation point of view, they tell you at a glance whats

its pretty much personal preference at the end of the day
