"Open Implementation" in Eclipse CDT

Question

Inside the Eclipse CDT (Juno), how can I quickly get to the implementation (s) of declaring a function / method?

The ctrl-click shortcut allows me to switch from an implementation (in a .cxx file) to a declaration ( .h file). I want the opposite behavior.

Answer 1

I use F3 when the text is in a function, it alternates between declaration and implementation.

Answer 2

ctrl-click in the header file moves you to the source (implementation) file and vice versa.

PS I am testing it on Juno SR1.

Answer 3

Alternatively, you can go from declaration ( .h ) to definition ( .cpp ) and back using the Toggle Source/Header context menu item (given the selected method / function).

It also helped me fix the initial incorrect behavior of F3 and Ctrl + click, which redirected only and unambiguously to the declaration of the method.
