Open Declaration is more fault-tolerant |
When navigating from a function's declaration to its definition, we now successfully perform the navigation even if the signature of the definition doesn't match exactly (bug 525739). This is particularly useful when you're changing a function / method signature by modifying the declaration first, and then want to navigate to the definition (whose signature is temporarily mis-matching) to change that also. |

Formatter
Parser
Improved support for C++14 | CDT's parser now supports C++14 digit separators (bug 519062). (There is a known issue remaining where regions between separators can be colored as a character literal.) |
---|
Improved support for C++17 | CDT's parser now supports C++17 nested namespace definitions (bug 490359) and template<auto> (bug 519361).

Build
Meson project support | Meson projects are now supported using the new Core Model project type. Support includes UI configuration which uses the result of the meson command help to populate the UI. A manual ninja build can be requested via the UI so that non-standard targets (e.g. install) can be built that are not provided via the Launchbar. Container build support is also provided. |
---|
Container Build support for Core Model Projects | Container Build is now supported for Core Model projects such as Meson, CMake, and the new Standard Make project types. Container Build support previously was only available for old-style Managed Build projects. Containers are treated simply as targets and are accessible via the Launchbar target pull-down which shows images for active Docker connections. |
