                       Hi,
  I quite often create files with a *.inl extension to keep all my inlined functions in separate file (Helps in keeping the header file nice and tidy :)), unfortunately VA doesn't support a *.inl extension when using it feature to toggle between files... 
  My suggestion is an option that allowed you to toggle between these 3 file types (*.h, *.cpp and *.inl) instead of only the *.h and *.cpp files...
  Cheers, Morten |

                       This is OT, but I thought INL files had kind of fallen by the wayside... doesn't the compiler pretty much ignore the inline keyword these days, and just inline what it wants?  Or am I thinking of the register keyword?  What are the benefits of maintaining a separate INL file, as opposed to just sticking it in the CPP file?

                       Though we see value in the idea, we have no plans currently to support toggling between more than h and cpp files. We need to think more about the caveats.
  FWIW, you are not the first to request this. (Though this is our first reply on the topic.)
