Visual Assist X does not recognise typedefs of function types or function pointers, e.g.
typedef void f();
typedef void (*g)();
f and g do not adopt the 'class, structures and typedefs' colour as they should.

They're colored "Maroon" (Brown) on my system, like all methods...
I'd say this is absolutely okay, since they are pointers to methods(functions), or am I wrong?

Oh yes, my mistake. My regular editor colour is closer to my method colour than I realised. Visual Assist does recognise them after all.
All the same, I would have expected the colour to be the typedef colour. In your example, LPtsrGetLastError is a pointer type, and you can't call it like a method: LPtsrGetLastError() doesn't make any sense. |

Hmm... agree, you're leading 1:0
I'll point one of the devs into this Topic, maybe they have an explanation (or confirmation that it's a bug).
But, look at this one (Screenshot is from a .cpp which includes the header the first screenshot is from):
Notice tsrGetVersion!
There, it's colored fine and as expected... strange, huh? |

That's what I expected. 'tsrGetVersion' is actually a function pointer, which colour fine. (It's another discussion whether function pointers should look like variables or methods when being called - I don't have a problem with the current scheme, although I'd personally have coloured them as variables.)
It's the function pointer typedefs (e.g. LPtsrGetLastError, LPtsrConnect) which get coloured (incorrectly IMO) as a function/method rather than a class/typedef. |
