Sample:

// header
class AAA {
public:
   void Func();
};


// cpp file
void AAA::Func() {
   std::string a;
   int         b;

   NewFunc( a, b );
}

When I hover over "NewFunc", then from "down arrow menu" I can call "Add similar member", which will try add new member with signature "void NewFunc( std::string a, int b )" in class "AAA".

We believe this problem occurs only in VC6 when the header does not end with a blank line.

Can you confirm this is the case for you?

Heh... It was a suggestion... Anyway, refactor menu for "NewFunc" for me shows "No refactoring available for symbol", alse NewFunc is underlined with red (it's correct bcs. no declaration for the function is present).

VAX 1526. VS2005

Also, "NewFunc" is never defined for any class or global

the problem here is that VA does not know which class you want to add the function to. i see what you are getting at here, but at the same time i can see this opening up a list of related requests, e.g.

CFoo bar;
bar.new_member_function();

people then wanting to add "new_member_function()" to CFoo, picking up its parameters at the same time.

If "new_member_function" is not declared in CFoo, then in CFoo, else in current class context.

i shall ask support about this one. personally i rather like the idea, but i am slightly concerned about the scope of the idea. just how much may we be letting ourselves in for here?

i can see a range of possible problem cases, to do with pointers to base classes, etc.

Interesting idea that we'll put on the list to consider.

I would like to add my vote to this.
E.g. if I type just the method name, then add it to the class of the current method:
void aClass::someMethod()
{
x = newFunc(a, b); //Add this to aClass
}

but if I qualify it with another class by pointer or direct reference then add it to that class:
x = someClass.newFunc(a, b); //Add this to someClass

Case 1531 is fixed in build 1531.

How about that?
