copy #include
C/C++ developers write #include a lot. Though language servers can help, it's still boring and error-prone to typing it again and agin.
This extension copys #include directive of the active file, or selected file in explorer. You can access the power from command palette, keyboard shortcut(ctrl+k l), status bar item, or explorer context menu.
The header search path is set to ${workspaceFolder} out of box. You're free to customize it per project at any time.
