No worries ;)

Anyway, these are just some ideas. They may lead to other ideas or they may
not. Either way KDevelop is pretty competitive and I have trust in the
developers that if they find something nice, they will implement it.

Besides it's not bad afterall if a feature or idea is taken from another IDE.
Have a nice day :)

Sorry, that is the snippets plugin I was talking about. It's called "template
engine" internally, so I got confused ;)

Templates are fully scriptable and you can have editable fields for e.g. the
class name. You can also generate code depending on the content of editable
template fields. It's not a dialog, but it's pretty close I think ... for
example the "give classname, have fitting constructor / destructor created" is
trivial with it, just write something like

class ${class} {
  ${class}();
  virtual ~${class}();
};

As far as I know I can't interactively give properties (eg name for the class,
the functor or even if a default (de)constructor should appear in it). I hope
you get the idea of full customisability that I am talking here. Sure, I as a
developer will write the code; not a kdevelop template will. But it would be
nice to just give the name of the class in a dialog, click if a default
constructor is to be shown and voila. I can have a customized skeleton where I
want it and start doing exactly this; write just the code.

This might not be restricted to classes only; it's just that I can't imagine
another c++ feature that can be created like this.

Ok I have to admit that for c++ templates, a snippset with a small skeleton
might cut it. Nothing here to interactively ask the user and append to the
template.

And yes I did miss the snippset plugin.

First, I think you did unsterstand correctly. Indeed I can create a snippset
for lambda, which can be triggered when Cnt+Space shows autocomplete and
snippsets.

But for a class, a functor or even a (C++) Template skeleton, I don't always
wish to create new files with a (kdevelop) template, but rather write a simple,
small class, or Template in place, in the file I am currently working. 

So, would you consider usefull a feature that does exactly the same thing
without creating new files but placing inside an existing one?

PS. Thank you for the clarification though.

I'm not sure I understand this wish correctly. We have the snippets plugin from
kate which does pretty much exactly that interactively in the editor, and we
have the template stuff which does pretty much exactly that but with dialogs.
What workflow do you miss? There is certainly no place for yet another workflow
between those two IMO.

Maybe you just haven't used the snippets plugin yet? ;)

Greetings,
Sven
