SCXcodeSwitchExpander

SCXcodeSwitchExpander is a small Xcode plugin that expands switch statements by inserting missing cases.

Features

• inserts all possible switch cases

• keeps already used cases and only inserts missing ones (even if the type changes)

• only keeps the 'default:' case when used with the built-in Xcode snippet

• works on ivars, properties, method parameters etc.

• works with nested switches

• hooks into the undo manager stack (makes it easier to fix typos)

• fast and reliable (won't affect Xcode's performance in any signinficant way)

Screenshots

• Replacing the default Xcode snippet

• Inserting missing cases

Known Issues

• takes a bit for it to kick in after starting Xcode as it's waiting for the IDEIndexDidChange notification. I found that building the project usually makes that happen.

• does not work with anonymous enums

Installation

• Build the project and restart Xcode or ...

• Download SCXcodeSwitchExpander.xcplugin.zip from the releases tab, unzip and move it to the Xcode plugins folder ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/SCXcodeSwitchExpander.xcplugin and restart Xcode or ...

• Get it through Alcatraz

• If you encounter any issues you can uninstall it by removing the ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/SCXcodeSwitchExpander.xcplugin folder
