Hi,
Using Visual Assist X 10.7.1916.0 with VS2010.
Language is C++. Trying the create from usage with a variable, I get "Refactoring not available on symbol".
Tried reparsing, cleaning the project, nothing helps..
maybe it has to do with using precompiled headers?

Strange. I think it has nothing to do with precompiled headers. My first guess it that VA cannot understand your code or parts of it, but I will need more info. Do you use any complex macro, e.g. recursive ones or to create member variables, etc.? Are you able to reproduce the problem in a clean new test project? (File -> New -> Project... -> Win 32 project) |

Just a thought - my include paths include boost, which has many hpp files, perhaps this has something to do with it? |

This is strange. It should work with boost. Can you please export your Visual Studio and Visual Assist settings and send them in along with this test project?
Visual Studio: IDE tools menu -> Import and Export Settings -> Export selected environment settings
Visual Assist: VA Options -> Performance -> Export Settings
Zip up the files and use the following form to send them in: http://www.wholetomato.com/support/contact.asp
Please include the URL of this topic in the description field so we can match it up. |

I got the files, thank you. Unfortunately, I still cannot reproduce the problem, using both your project files and your settings.
- How do you trigger the refactoring menu? Did you use shift+alt+q? - Can you please try rebuilding your symbol databases to see if it helps? (VA Options -> Performance -> Rebuild) - If you still experience the problem, 1. Trigger rebuild symbol databases, again. 2. Exit Visual Studio 3. Turn on logging but setting the following registry entry: HKCU \\ Software \\ Whole Tomato \\ Logging = 1 4. Start Visual Studio 5. Open your test project 6. Wait while VA is rebuilding the symbol databases (you can see if it's still working in the status bar) 7. Reproduce the problem (i.e. open the menu with the error message) 8. Exit VS 9. Collect and send in the log files
It may help us to get a clue what's the problem. You can read more about logging and where you'll find the log files: http://docs.wholetomato.com?W305 Please, if possible, reply to the automated message you got from us so your logs will be added to the same case. |

Thanks. But unfortunately I did not find them. Can you please try using the form instead of using email? That way spam or other filters hopefully won't derail it. Sorry about this. Replying to mails usually works.  |

Got the files and asked a developer to look into it, thank you. In the meantime: do you use any other Visual Studio extensions? |

The logs unfortunately didn't offer any clue. - Do you get the same problem with any unknown symbol with any name on any place or in any file? Or are there conditions where it works? - Are the other refactoring commands work? e.g. is rename offered on defined symbols? |
