I'm using VA.X and it still has problems filling in the parameter list in function definitions based on the declaration. If I have a class declaration, and then write its implementation, it would be a real time saver if parameter types, names and default values would be filled in automatically.
VA.X kind of does it 10% of the time. When I type the open bracket, I immediately get the argument list tool-tip below the cursor, which informs me about the function signature(s). Sometimes, after about a second, I get a second tool tip above the cursor, where I can choose a argument list to be filled in (eg. "(bool foo /* = false */")
Problem 1: The second tool-tip only appears 10% of the time. Worse, if I change a function declaration, delete the argument list from the definition and again type the open bracket, it'll never suggest a useful argument list again, if any.
Problem 2: Often, the suggested argument list in the second tooltip is wrong, even though the first tooltip below the cursor displays the correct argument list.
What I don't understand is why VA.X is capable of displaying the correct parameter list below the cursor, but not in the second tooltip above the cursor. I end up having to type in the displayed argument list from the first tool tip, manually commenting out default arguments.
