When I'm using the renaming feature (Refactor->Rename) on a struct that has an identical name for the member variable and the corresponding constructor parameter, it doesn't work as expected.

1:typedef struct S {
2:	void* pointer;
3:
4:	S(void* pointer)
5:		: pointer(pointer) {}
6:} S, *PS;


If I use the rename feature on the member variable (line 2) only the member variable (line 2) is renamed.

If I use the rename feature on the constructor parameter (line 4) the member variable at line 5 is renamed, too.

Even the syntax is legal, it is considered as bad practice.

I think that VA is confused of the name of parameter as it has same name as initialized variable.
If I change passed parameter name to p, all works fine for me:

typedef struct S {
	void* pointer;

	S(void* p)
		: pointer(p) {}
} S, *PS;

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

For now, you can use different names as Dusan has explained.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
