[cdt-dev] How to get quickfix to work

Hi

This is probably not the place to ask this question but I fear other locations will not result in proper attention.
I am busy recording a new and noteworthy for Sloeber 3.1 released on the 1th of August 2016 (yes I'm seriously behind schedule ;-) )

And because we upgraded to neon in the product I thought this is a perfect time to put CDT (improvements) in the picture.
So looking at the new and noteworthy https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn90 I was pleasantly surprised to read

Create New Class - Quick Fix

I never saw a quickfix in CDT so I tested it asap. However ... didn't work.
I tried with CDT 9.0 9.2 and a latest CDT installed with oomph.
I never get a quickfix.
I googled a bit and found this https://www.reddit.com/r/cpp/comments/4tbkzc/quick_fixes_in_eclipse_cdt/ basically the same message: quickfix doesn't work.

At this point in writing this mail I find that when I right click on the red bug (codan error) and select quick fix it does work. Also ctrl+1 works.
In java you get the quick fix by hovering, I and apparently many people seem to be unable to find other ways ;-) .
I think we should consider showing the quickfix when hovering or at least add to the hover "quick fix ctrl+1" if a quick fix exists.

Best regards

Jantje
