As International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) sponsors and continuous supporters of many educational initiatives, JetBrains thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to run JetBrains Knowledge Day 2020 last week. This was a unique educational event to mark the beginning of the ICPC competitive season and academic year. Phil Nash, JetBrains C++ Tools developer advocate, gave a talk on using CLion since C++ is widely used in both competitive programming and education. This talk introduces some of the CLion features that can supercharge your coding. It covers completions, including smart comple

Working with Unreal Engine projects means working with the Unreal reflection system and the UnrealHeaderTool. Macros are used to mark types and type members as visible to Blueprints, replicated across servers, set metadata and more. ReSharper C++ (and soon the Rider for Unreal Engine preview) understands the Unreal macros, providing quick doc tooltips and completion. But mistakes in these macros are only discovered at compile time, when the build system runs the UnrealHeaderTool to parse the files. ReSharper C++ 2020.3 EAP introduces support for running the UnrealHeaderTool on the file you’re

In the previous 2020.3 EAP build we were focused on giving run/debug configurations and CMake profiles more flexibility in CLion, and at the same time we introduced a bundled tool for collaborative development and pair programming.

In the previous 2020.3 EAP release, we introduced more profound support for Qt projects, enhancements for Google Test in the built-in test runner, and much more.

For Run/Debug configurations: The ability to configure an environment before executing a configuration by running a script. The ability to edit a configuration while indexing is still running. Code With Me, a tool for collaborative development and pair programming, is now bundled in CLion!
