Can you explain the problem a bit more?
In case you are wondering, private members are included in member listboxes when not in a class. This is by design. |

You are right, but
it is to be regretted that is by design...
suggestion:
if possible, could you make it in following versions... optionally...

I apologise for my English... |

Even if I`ll specify to show only the public
members in popup listmember menu
(by clicking on popup toolbar button),
all public members of a base class will be visible, but
my class is protected or private inherited...
And I think that it's a bug... |

| could you post just a few lines of code to show what you mean? remember that VA does not know if you have access to the private members or not. some times i have to use friend classes, and access private members of class A from class B. |

In this sample, public_methodA presents as public method in VA MemberList, but this is not the case...
You are right... if uncomment one string, all will be correct...
Probably I want an impossible... from VA... =)
class classC
{
public:
classC(){}
void foo();
};
class classA
{
public:
classA(){}
void public_methodA(){}
private:
void private_methodA(){}
};
class classB : protected classA
{
public:
classB(){}
//friend void classC::foo();
void public_methodB(){}
private:
void private_methodB(){}
};
void classC::foo()
{
classB b;
b.public_methodA();
} |

i see now. the basic problem is friend classes, plus code that you are still writing. VA cannot assume that the code it is helping you with is 100% complete and valid. as a result it cannot be to clever in trying to help.
the answer here is shown by this screen shot, which i get using your example on b. in the bottom function:
notice that the private members have an icon indicating that they are private. secondly if you move the mouse over the listbox you can filter it to only show you public members. |

All that I want is to see only the available members of current object...
quote:
if you move the mouse over the listbox you can filter it to only show you public members.
Even when I filter members, method "public_methodA" is visible...
but it's not available, and it's protected methhod for "classB"...

i very rarely use protected in my C++ class trees, so i have tried compiling this with VS2003. for an instance of classB the function classB::public_methodA() is not available, you are right.
however is this because it has become protected or private? off hand i do not remember. i need to locate a book and check the rules for this. certainly there is a bug here though. as soon as i have pinned down what should be happening i will put in a bug report. |

appologies for the delay. i have found the description i wanted:
A base class may also be inherited as "protected" by a derived class. When this is the case, public and protected members of the base class become protected members of the derived class.
