Hi, guys - Since Visual Assist always keeping project files parsed - it would be nice if it can provide basic refactoring support - symbols renaming at least
I'm asking about it since there are good refactoring support for Java, but for C++ only Eclipse & SlickEdit is supporting it. And we are switching to slickedit sometimes during end of week to rename methods and attributes. Since you already have a good parser, symboltable,references and so on - it is not so hard to replace symbols through all project. It is not simple replace through all files because we need to check visibility scope of vars (e.g. local) - but it is also done in your VS ASSIST.

if it helps VS 2005 has some refactoring support built into it.
I have VS2005 B2 installed but as far as I know it is provides refactoring only for C#.
Thank you,for providing us with great software.Sure that Microsoft can't provide better solution integrated into VS2005 than you .
refactoring is certainly a popular request as i understand it the basic problems are available resources and focus.
as long time forum regulars will assure you there are plenty of outstanding bugs in VA's core area to address without branching out to far. this may yet happen, but i suspect not just yet.
