[SOLVED] Rename class in Qt Creator
-
Hello friends.
I want to rename some class in Qt Creator. Of course, I expect the IDE to rename *h and *cpp files, everything within these files, every #include with this class and so on. It is an easy operation in Eclipse for example, but I can not find how to do this in Qt Creator.
Thanks!

Hi.
Just right click on needed name and follow Refactor - > Rename Symbol Under Cursor
or just press Ctrl+Shift+R -
qxoz, thank you for your reply!
Ok, it renames all occurrences of selected text in the project. But it is not enough, I want IDE to rename class files too!
Example:
I have files keystroke.h and keystroke.cpp. They contain class KeyStroke. I rename class to KeyStroke1. And I expect IDE to rename keystroke.h -> keystroke1.h and keystroke.cpp -> keystroke1.cpp. -
Well, unfortunately i didn't find such option in QtCreator.
I have changed the file names and "#include" lines manually. -
You can:
Rename the file by right-clicking it in the Project tree on the left (or press F2), and then
Press Ctrl+Shift+F to replace "keystroke.h" with "keystroke1.h" everywhere in your code
If you want the feature you described, you can suggest it at https://bugreports.qt-project.org/

I was referring to these actions, when I said manually :) -

Update:- Fix
@
#ifndef KEYSTROKE_H
#define KEYSTROKE_H
@to
@
#ifndef KEYSTROKE1_H
#define KEYSTROKE1_H
@- Find and replace all #include "keystroke.h" to #include "keystroke1.h"
A hell of work!

Ok, the question may be regarded as SOLVED, although it is not what I expected.
Thanks guys!

Sure, its fast. I'm just upset that it's four consecutive operations instead of one.

Sorry, but renaming files is not that straight forward when supporting several build systems -- especially considering that none of those was intended to be used from within an IDE. :-/

Why is this topic closed? Wouldn't it be great if Qt Creator could do like https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/15.0/rename-refactorings.html ?
