Hi there,

I am using VS2005 and VAX Build 1557.

If I am renaming a class I get this little bug: 


class MyClass
{
public:
	MyClass();
	~MyClass();
	
private:
   MyClass& operator=(const MyClass&);
};


I am renaming "MyClass" in "YourClass" and get the following: 


class YourClass
{
public:
	YourClass();
	~YourClass();
	
private:
   YourClass& operator=(const MyClass&);
};


Everything is renamed correctly but the parameter of my copy constructor.


Keep up the good work.

This happens because there is no parameter name. Change the copy constructor to be:

   YourClass& operator=(const MyClass& rhs);


and VA will correctly find and rename all instances of the class name.

Ah yes, you are right. It works if I have a parameter name.

But because I want to declare the copy constructor as private to prevent copies it would not need a name :)

That's fair This is a known bug, and is on our list of bugs to fix. case=3027 is the number of this particular bug, something that I don't always explain since most of the forum regulars are familiar with this, and used to it.

*sigh* I'd wish my UML tool already took the possibility of 'copy protection constructors' into consideration. As it is, it inserts a dummy parameter name even if I don't supply one in the UML model

But then again, this leads to VAX handling those constructors correctly
