When a method is declared in a class using fully qualified name, change signature produces invalid method name in implementation.
(using VA 1848).

class A
{
void A::test(void *p);
}

change signature: test(void *p, int &k) -> results in:

void A::A( void *p, int &k )
{

}

I am seeing the same effect here. Thank you for the clear description.

Out of interest, why are you using fully qualified names for the function declarations? I don't think I have ever seen anyone do this before.

Yeah, that is a rare case. The only use case making sense is to change protection on a method when deriving from a class.
The one I found in my code was however a copy-paste from implementation.

Thank you for the update, it is good news that this is not to common in your code, given this problem.
