While we don't have a voting system for bugs, we do pay close attention to the most common bug reports and feature requests on the forum and via email, and do look to discuss and understand new feature requests. This helps us work out what to do next, and how to prioritise things. |

agree
non open source projects does this too (see all JetBrains products)

Some open source projects allow users to vote on features and bug requests to push the important ones to the top.
If you had this in your bug tracking system, I would participate. |

We have a lots of outstanding feature requests, and somehow we need to prioritize them. This feature may not be the easiest one to implement, though. Just running the existing Find References on every single symbol in the source to analyze the results, well, maybe it would be too slow. But I'm just thinking out loud. |

The purpose of tools like VA is to automate actions, make them quick and less error prone.
I know i can do it myself using warnings or logs. But its like renaming.
If it costs too much in time, or if it is error prone, you won't always do it.
But if its fast and safe you'll do it. Who have used Resharper knows what I mean.
In maintenance mode, the most important code is the one you delete.
At the moment VA has all the tools to detect dead code.
@feline: you are considering it since 2006 :) |

Unused variables can be easily found in compiler warnings. Eliminated functions could probably be found in some linker log using verbose log level. |

case=2335 is the feature request to find unused variables and functions, which we are still considering. This would certainly help some of the time. For now if you suspect you have an unused variable or function you can simply run Find References on it and see what VA finds. |
