Code Roar Reference Manual: Dialogs

Settings Dialog: File Filters Tab

The File Filters tab allows the user to create file type filters that allow filtering of file lists in several of the dialogs in the Code Roar.

Multiple file extensions should be separated by the semicolon character. For example, a filter that would catch all C and C++ files would take the format:

*.c;*.h;*.cpp;*.hpp;*.cxx;*.hxx

This will match all files with one of the following extensions: .c, .h, .cpp, .hpp, .cxx or .hxx.

The following figure displays the File Filters tab:
