I thought the title might draw your attention.
I have added a new cpp file to a class and when I am editing the new file and click the h/cpp button it just gives me an open dialog.
This is not the only class that has more than one cpp file and this is the first time I have ever encountered this problem.
Here is my config.
VA_X.dll file version 10.0.1246.0
Licensed to:
VA X: [email protected] (1-user license) Support ends 2005.04.12
VAOpsWin.dll version 1.0.0.44
MSDev.exe version 6.0.8168.2
Devshl.dll version 6.0.8168.0
Devedit.pkg version 6.0.8168.0
Font: Verdana 12(Pixels)
Comctl32.dll version 5.81.4916.400
WindowsNT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 4
Single processor
Platform: Win32 (x86)
Stable Includes:
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\INCLUDE;
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\MFC\\INCLUDE;
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\ATL\\INCLUDE;
C:\\PROGRAM FILES\\MATROX IMAGING\\MIL\\INCLUDE;
Library Includes:
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\MFC\\SRC;
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\MFC\\INCLUDE;
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\ATL\\INCLUDE;
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\CRT\\SRC;
Other Includes:
I can understand how if I were in the h file that you wouldn't know which cpp file to go to, but there is only one h file for the class.
The wizard bar knows the class and if I click on the down arrow to the right of the magic wand and select go to class definition it takes me there.
I can find absolutely nothing unusual about this file.
Has anybody else seen this and if so is it fixed in one of the betas?
Thanks

I installed 1278 and it still fails on this one file.
I did however think of one thing that is unique about this file. The function in this file used to belong to another class. I salvaged the file and changed the class that the one function in it belongs to. Is there something stuck away in memory that remembers that this file used to be in another class and therefore can't figure out where to send me when I click on the h/cpp button? |

| Try Rebuild on the Performance tab of our options dialog. |

I tried the Rebuild and that didn't fix it. In fact it makes it fail on all files. So I also tried the clear tab as well and still all files fail to go to the .h file from the .cpp file. I had come to depend on that tab because it kept me from having to go to the top of the file and selecting the .h file I wanted to open.
Any other ideas? |

We missed this in your original post. VA X shouldn't open an open dialog, even if it does not know the location of your header or cpp.
OpenOpposite is not a complex command. VA X searches the current directory, then the project, for the matching file. Only files names are searched, i.e. foo.h from foo.cpp. The content of the files is immaterial.
Does the h/cpp button work for other files? If not, can you install the latest build of VA X, preferably our latest beta, and accept a new VC++ 6.0 toolbar during install? |

It seems to work on files that have a one to one relationship between the .h and the .cpp but not on files that have several .cpp files for one .h file.
What is the latest beta? I'm using 1278 but I didn't accept any new toolbars when I installed it. |

the latest build is 1282, which is only available in the private beta forum. theoretically i have the ability to add you to this forum, but i cannot find the button to do so *puzzled*
i am not sure if 1278 is new enough for what support want, or if 1282 is better. |

I just installed 1283 (which I hope is newer than 1282) and the problem persists. Should this be moved to the public beta forum?
Does nobody else have this problem? |

deep inside our code at work there is a .h / .cpp pair where alt_o only works in one direction. occasionally i run into this problem, but since i dont normally look at this code, i am ignoring the problem. this is with .NET 2003
so you are not alone in having odd problems with this feature. it may have something to do with the file names, and file locations you are using in this case.
could you post the details of all the involved files? i can then set up the same file names and relative locations, and see what happens for me.
and yes, 1283 is newer than 1282. the VAX version numbers always go up for newer versions. |

The class is Sleeve and is in the file sleeve.h
Most of the implementation is in sleeve.cpp but one function, PlotSleeve is in plotsleeve.cpp.
The h/cpp works from sleeve.cpp to sleeve.h but does not work from plotsleeve.cpp. As even I expect, the h/cpp from sleeve.h takes me to sleeve.cpp. All of the files are in the same folder. I'm using VS C++ 6.0
I am almost positive that this used to work, but please don't ask me what I changed. Is this enough detail? |

We do not believe the functionality you want was ever provided by the h/cpp command, i.e. OpenOpposite. This feature has always worked on file names, nothing else.
We're baffled by the "open dialog" box. We don't know why it appears. Does it for anyone else with a non-matching h/cpp pair? |

using VC6 (with no service pack) and VAX 1283 i also get the "open file" dialog when pressing alt_o in "plotsleeve.cpp"

it was ideal, since i was able to produce the same setup, and reproduce without any problems. alt_o producing the open dialog:
case=437
in this case, all of the functions in plotsleeve.cpp are for the same class. so VAX could try to detect this, and then jump to this class on alt_o.
case=438 |
