Extension Switcher

Switch between files with related extensions. For instance, .cpp (C++ source), .inl (C++ inline files) and .h (headers).

Missing files will be skipped over silently, making it easy to support extra languages or unusual extensions (e.g. there are various conventions for C++ files).

This is similar to a number of other extensions that toggle between header and source, but can support cycles of more than two files, which is useful for C++ inline files.

Usage

Hit 'CTRL+7' ('Cmd+7' on Mac) to iterate through the different extensions of the same root file. If there are no other matching files, you'll get a notification.

Extension Settings

• extensionswitcher.extensions: an array of extensions to iterate through.

Keybindings

• extensionswitcher.switch: do the switching. Defaults to Ctrl+7 (Cmd+7).

Known Issues

None, though this is my first VSCode extension. Caveat emptor.

Contribution

Don't be shy!

Release Notes

Bugfix: now iterates in the current editor window rather than the leftmost one.
