Question

Sorry if this is already covered, or better asked in another of the stackoverflow properties…

What I’m looking for is a way to control how the boiler plate “create a new class” in C++ is handled in VS2010.

Currently, create a new class X with parent Y generates

X.h
#include "Y.h"
class X :
   public Y
{
public:
   X(void);
   virtual ~X(void);
}

X.cpp
#include "StdAfx.h"
#include "X.h"

X::X(void)
{
}

X::~X(void)
{
}

I would prefer that every (void) be instead (). I assume there must be a template file from which the above code is generated? Does anyone know where that is, what the proper procedure is for overriding it?

I hate to answer this myself, but the reality is that VS2010 (and older) don’t support being able to customize the code generation for C++ (but do for other languages).

So Zannjaminderson is right if you’re looking for anything but C++
