C Snippets
This extension provides a simple set of VSCode snippets for the C programming language. Can be found here on the Visual Studio Marketplace.
List of snippets:
| Snippet Description | Snippet Input | Snippet Code |
|---|---|---|
| Starter Template | sst | <code>#include <stdio.h><br>int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { <br> return 0;<br>}<code> |
| Starter template with stlib.h | libsst | <code>#include <stdio.h><br> #include <stdlib.h> <br>int main (int argc, char *argv[]) { <br> return 0;<br>}<code> |
| Conditionals and loops | ||
| If statement | if | <code>if (expression) {<br> /* code here */<br>}</code> |
| Else if statement | elif | <code>elseif (expression) {<br> /* code here */<br>}</code> |
| Else statement | else | <code>else {<br> /* code here */<br>}</code> |
| For loop | for | <code>for (int i = 0; i < count; i++) {<br> /* code here */<br>}</code> |
| While loop | while | <code>while (expression) {<br> /* code here */<br>}</code> |
| Do...while loop | dowhile | <code>do {<br> /* code here */<br>} while (expression)</code> |
| Header file include guard | ig | <code>#ifndef {transformed_file_name} <br>#define {transformed_file_name} <br><br> // Code for header body <br><br>#endif {transformed_file_name}</code> |
| Linked lists | ||
| Linked list template | clist | <code>typedef struct _node * Link;<br>typedef struct _node node;<br>struct _node {<br> int value;<br> Link next;<br>};<code> |

| Memory Allocation | ||
| Allocate memory using calloc | cal | <code>{type} ptr = ({type})calloc(, sizeof({type})); <br>if (ptr == NULL) { <br> printf("Memory allocation failed!\n"); <br> exit(0); <br> } <br> free(ptr); </code> |
