The "list of methods in current file" drop-down doesn't differentiate between overloaded operator methods:
For example given this sample class:
struct sample
{
double operator()( double d ) const
{
return(d);
}
int operator()( int i ) const
{
return(i);
}
char operator()( char c ) const
{
return(c);
}
double afunction( double f ) const
{
return(f);
}
int afunction( int i ) const
{
return(i);
}
};
As you can see from the picture below the named functions show the parameters so you can easily differentiate between them, but the overload operator() functions do not.
I suspect this is probably due from assuming that the parenthesis in the operator signature are an empty parameter list. |

I am seeing the same effect here. Thank you for the clear description.

Also duplicated in the List methods in current files list are const vs non-const functions.
For example:
I use this drop-down a lot. It becomes annoying fast when there are several versions of a method with no way of knowing which one is which until you click on it.
Any chance of this getting updated soon? |

I also have a related suggestion. It'd be nice if the constructors and destructor functions (if present) of a class are sorted at the beginning of the class group. Right now everything is sorted alphabetically, which, of course, makes sense. But, for constructors and destructors it would be quicker to find them if they are at the top of that class group. I always think of them as special functions that are almost always located at the start of a class definition as opposed to regular functions that just happen to have the same name as the class. As a result I often end up looking for them at the top of the list just to find, of course, that they are buried somewhere in the long list.
This may be, admittedly, a little difficult, but I think it's a useful suggestion. If you don't want to do it, I'll manage. |

Putting the constructors and the destructor first is an interesting idea, I have put in a feature request to see what our developers make of it:
case=71805
For now, have you tried setting VA to show the Alt-m list in occurrence order, rather than alphabetical order? This is set in the VA Options -> Display tab.
This way the constructors and destructor will normally be at the top of the list, since they are normally placed at the start of the class.
Personally I prefer this, since the ordering of the functions in the class normally has some meaning and pattern to me  |
