I'm using C# and I have a namespace which is identified as "
Company.Product.System.Component
". When I go to the goto recent method context menu I get a bunch of this:

Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn
Company.Product() in sourcefile.cs:nnnn

Which might be acurate but it is completely unhelpful. Seems like you are treating Company.Product in Company.Product.System.Component.Class.Method as Class.Method.

The "goto recent method" item in our Context Menu is a remnant from pre-VA X days, namely when we supported C++ only. We intend to revamp the entire menu. We make no claim as to what stays and what goes.

That said, we realize we should support what exists.

Assuming the problem is reproducable, what do you do to corrupt the list? Opening a file with a bunch of "using" statements appears not to be a problem.

I guess I was not clear, if I'm editing code inside the namespace Company.Product.System.Component all my goto recent menu entries are as described. It is 100% reproducable at least in C# under VS 2003 on my box. If you cannot reproduce it I can provide some code that *should* help, but the problem is pretty straight forward.

We can reproduce the problem. VA X is not so bright in this case. It truncates "recent method" entries for C# to a foo.bar format.

ixBug=25

We have a reasonable workaround in build 1233. We implemented this specifically for C#. Right+Click in the MRU and enable "Include modified methods." (We recommend this for C#, in lieu of including modified files, where one file can contain a slew of methods.)

This works just fine for me, sorry I didn't realize this feature was around.
