There is one thing that, whenever I have to do, I let out a sigh of resignation, knowing that it’ll be an exercise in frustration - creating new C++ classes for my project. Visual Studio’s functionalities for adding files are atrocious with it wanting to place stuff in the Intermediate folder all the time, and UE4’s class wizard, while it does add both the cpp and h files at once and puts in the boilerplate right away, always reloads the solution which on my PC takes a bit of time.
Could we get a batch class adder? Like, punch in the names, relative paths and parent classes for 5-6 items in a dropdown list and have them all added together?
I add my files manually (create new files in Windows explorer, then add them to my project/solution in Visual Studio manually) since creating individual classes is so slow via the editor. If I was ever going to use it, batch-adding would be great.
By the way, you don’t really have to add them manually to your VS solution once you’ve added them to the project’s folders. Simply right-click on your .uproject file in the explorer, and do “Generate visual studio files”. It’ll add everything to the sln automagically
I do this because I’m worried about Visual Assist doing a re-scan due to having new project files etc. Do you know if it doesn’t, for sure? If so, I’ll just do it that way
