Have you tried rebuilding youre symbole database?

We have a new build coming in the next day or less, which I tested going from a delcaration in a .h to the definition in the .cpp file just fine.

no, I rebuild my symbold database and close&open VC6, it still doesn't work.

By the way, if the function is overloaded, Alt+G just go between the two declarations, never to definition.

i have just tried alt-g in VC6 with VA1532, and it is working perfectly for me, jumping from both the cpp file and the .h file.

if this still fails for people in VA 1532 can you try in a different file or project?
does VAView know about, and understand the current class?
is this it possible this is a class specific bug?

VC6 + VA1532, same problem. However, it is inconsistent for me. It works for some classes. I haven't noticed any pattern, though. Rebuilding symbols and temp files does not work.

Keep looking for a pattern.

Try with a new, default project.

using version 1532 with VS 2005 C++.

Sometimes, when I use the Alt-G Hotkey, VA displays the Autorecover files instead of the original source code files...

Ikarus76 do you have any other plugin's installed? is there anything "odd" about your system? i don't think i have ever heard of that problem before, so i am wondering why you are getting this.

They could have fixed ALL of the ALT-G issues if only they implemented my three easy suggestions to take the ALT-G to the next level.

C++
Visual Studio 2008 Pro
Windows 7 x64

case=2133
va should ignore the autorecover directory when you have the va "watch for externally modified..." option enabled

One scenario I reproduced:

1. Alt+G only goes to the declaration.
2. Edit the definition (add a blank line)
3. Alt+G works!

sorry for the delay. looks similar to http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4896 case=2394
But in that case rebuilding the database fixes the issue - and then after a period of time it goes bad again. Hopefully related...
