Hi,
I remember VAX having a feature that would automatically sort method implementations in .cpp files to match the declaration order in the corresponding header file.
I've been searching for this functionality but haven't been able to find any documentation or figure out how to access it. Is this feature something that exists (or existed), or am I misremembering? If it does exist, could you point me to how to use it?
Thanks!

Nevermind, I found it.

Just hover over a function name in your .cpp file and the option appears.

You can also trigger it on the class name.

You might also want to make sure you have the setting:

VA Options -> Code Generation -> Maintain order in header and source files for generated C/C++ implementations

turned On to help maintain the correct ordering.
