Would be helpful, if VA Outline displayed specific sign in an icon for const variables and members. This can be some letter 'c' in the right top corner of the icon.

int const a;
class A
{
static const int m_ca;

void f_c() const;
};

This is the same as picking out virtual and static members really, which we are considering:

case=7996

Yes, it is similar. You should just attach to the case=7996 the list of all categories to reflect:

static
virtual
const
mutable
volatile

and allow somehow for their combinations, like: virtual void my_method() const;

A couple more points to consider for this feature:

1) It should work in cpp-s, as well as in .h-s:
case=5755 (http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6537)

2) The method in derived class should be marked as virtual even if no "virtual" keyword presents for this method, but it is virtual in a base class.

I am writing that to collect all related ideas in one point, this may be a help for developers. :)

I have added a note about these other keywords.

Showing this information in a different file, access information while in a cpp file for example, is:

case=5755
