Predefined Surround Templates for C++

This topic lists all predefined surround templates for C++ in JetBrains Rider 2023.2. For more information about surround templates, refer to Surround code fragments with templates.

Template	Details
`forr`	Reversed for Scope C++ statements Body for (int $INDEX$ = $MAX$ - 1; $INDEX$ >= 0 ; --$INDEX$) { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `INDEX` - Suggests a unique name for an index variable at the evaluation point `MAX` - no macro `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`wcerr`	Write to standard error stream Scope C++ statements Body std::wcerr << $END$; Parameters `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`do`	do while loop Scope C++ statements Body do { $SELECTION$$END$ } while ($EXPR$); Parameters `EXPR` - Evaluates to the specified constant value `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`foreach`	range-based for loop Scope C++ statements Body for ($TYPE$ $VARIABLE$ : $COLLECTION$) { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `COLLECTION` - Suggests a visible variable that can be enumerated (that is, used in a foreach loop as collection) `TYPE` - Suggests a type for a new variable declared in the template `VARIABLE` - When executed in a variable declaration (where variable name should stand), suggests a name for the variable `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`fori`	for loop pattern with integer index Scope C++ statements Body for (int $INDEX$ = 0; $INDEX$ < $MAX$; ++$INDEX$) { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `INDEX` - Suggests a unique name for an index variable at the evaluation point `MAX` - no macro `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`if`	if statement Scope C++ statements Body if ($EXPR$) { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `EXPR` - Evaluates to the specified constant value `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`try`	try catch statement Scope C++ statements Body try { $SELECTION$$END$ } catch ($EXCEPTION$) {} Parameters `EXCEPTION` - Evaluates to the specified constant value `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`while`	while statement Scope C++ statements Body while ($EXPR$) { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `EXPR` - Evaluates to the specified constant value `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`static_cast`	static_cast expression Scope C++ expressions Body static_cast<$TYPE$>($SELECTION$) Parameters `TYPE` - Guesses the type expected at this point `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`dynamic_cast`	dynamic_cast expression Scope C++ expressions Body dynamic_cast<$TYPE$>($SELECTION$) Parameters `TYPE` - Guesses the type expected at this point `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`namespace`	Anonymous namespace declaration Scope C++ namespace declarations Body namespace { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`#if...#endif`	Code snippet for #if...#endif preprocessor directive Scope C++, At line start Body #if $END$ $SELECTION$ #endif Parameters `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`const_cast`	const_cast expression Scope C++ expressions Body const_cast<$TYPE$>($SELECTION$) Parameters `TYPE` - Guesses the type expected at this point `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`reinterpret_cast`	reinterpret_cast expression Scope C++ expressions Body reinterpret_cast<$TYPE$>($SELECTION$) Parameters `TYPE` - Guesses the type expected at this point `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`cast`	C-like cast expression Scope C++ expressions Body (($TYPE$) $SELECTION$) Parameters `TYPE` - Guesses the type expected at this point `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`namespace ...`	namespace declaration Scope C++ namespace declarations Body namespace $NAME$ { $SELECTION$$END$ } Parameters `NAME` - Evaluates to the specified constant value `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
`include_guard`	Include guard surround template Scope C++ top-level declarations, At line start Body #ifndef $FILENAME$ #define $FILENAME$ $SELECTION$ #endif // $FILENAME$ Parameters `FILENAME` - Evaluates to the current file name in uppercase with all non-alphanumeric characters replaced with underscores `DATE` - Evaluates to file creation date and time of the current file `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template.
`if...else`	if else statement Scope C++ statements Body if ($COND$) { $SELECTION$ } else { $END$ } Parameters `COND` - Suggests variables of the specified type `SELECTION` - The text selected by the user before invoking the template. `END` - The caret position after the template is applied.
