Posted - Nov 11 2005 : 09:12:55 AM When using static_cast in a define "go to" stops working for functions in the inherited class:
class TestBase
{
public:
void TestBaseFunction();
};
class Test : public TestBase
{
public:
void TestFunction();
};
extern class TestBase* g_pTestBase;
#define TESTBASE g_pTestBase
#define TESTNOSTATIC_CAST (Test*)TESTBASE
#define TEST (static_cast<Test*>(TESTBASE))
TESTBASE->TestBaseFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestBaseFunction
TEST->TestBaseFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestBaseFunction
TESTNOSTATIC_CAST->TestFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestFunction
TEST->TestFunction(); // Doesn't work, just goes to define
#define TESTBASE2 (static_cast<TestBase*>(g_pTestBase))
#define TEST2NOSTATIC_CAST (Test*)(g_pTestBase)
#define TEST2 static_cast<Test*>(g_pTestBase)
TESTBASE2->TestBaseFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestBaseFunction
TEST2->TestBaseFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestBaseFunction
TEST2NOSTATIC_CAST->TestFunction(); // Works. Goes to definition of TestFunction
TEST2->TestFunction(); // Doesn't work, just goes to define
I've tried this on some colleagues machines who have older versions of VA:

Posted - Mar 08 2006 : 3:46:16 PM sorry, currently no progress to report on this. i have put a note on the case asking for this to be looked at fairly soon, but i am not sure when this will happen.

Posted - Mar 08 2006 : 04:27:05 AM Any news on this? Even though I've myself reverted to 1418, I have a lot of colleagues who are now using the newest version, since we just bought a new 45 user license.

Posted - Nov 19 2005 : 2:54:10 PM that makes sense. i have updated the case with this, so hopefully all of them will be fixed at the same time.

Posted - Nov 18 2005 : 04:03:03 AM I just tried the rest of the casting operators and none of them work.
#define TESTDYNAMIC (dynamic_cast<Test*>(TESTBASE))
#define TESTREINTERPRET (reinterpret_cast<Test*>(TESTBASE))
#define TESTCONST (const_cast<Test*>(TESTBASE))
TESTDYNAMIC->TestFunction(); // Doesn't work, just goes to define
TESTREINTERPRET->TestFunction(); // Doesn't work, just goes to define
TESTCONST->TestFunction(); // Doesn't work, just goes to define
