Parameter Name Hints

The first 2019.2 EAP introduced Parameter name hints that helps with the code readability by showing the names of function parameters for passed arguments. This build brings a few important fixes for it:

  • Fixed the freezes in the IDE caused by parameter hints (CPP-16494).
  • A parameter name hint was added for an argument which is a constructor without parameters (CPP-16423):
    constructor_hints
  • A parameter name hint was added for the this pointer (CPP-16312):
    this_hints

Debugger

This EAP also brings a set of fixes in Debugger:

  • Fixed the bug with the evaluate an expression with GDB. It gets constantly re-evaluated each time the debugger refreshes the variables view (CPP-7358).
  • Fixed the issue with GDB when a variable’s value is not updated on stepping after “Set value” command (CPP-13295).
  • Fixed the GDB hangs in the case of MinGW-w64 and multi-line commands(CPP-9090).

And more

Among the other changes:

  • Commit from the Local Changes for projects that use Git or Mercurial as their version control system (see the blog post for more details).
  • Windows Defender performance warning (see the blog post for more details)
  • Remove false positives with constructors marked as unused, if created via std::make_shared.
  • Fixed the issue with the macro replacement in quick documentation which was not working when ClangFormat is enabled(CPP-16244).

The full release notes are available here.
