To demonstrate the problem I created a simple console application.
I've stripped everything out except the essentials.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "NewClass.h"
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
NewClass n;
BaseClass *b = &n;
int i = b->GetValue();
return 0;
}
In a separate file ...
// BaseClass.h
class BaseClass
{
public:
virtual int GetValue()=0;
};
And a third file ...
//NewClass.h
#include "BaseClass.h"
class NewClass : public BaseClass
{
public:
int GetValue(){return(1);}
};
Now, if you put the caret on the GetValue in the main file and do a find references, you only get the GetValue in the main file, not the definition or implementation(they're the same in this example).
If you put the caret on the GetValue in the implementation and find references, you only get the implementation not its use in the main program.
When I put everything in one file, it found everything correctly.

I was seeing problems till I saved all files.
Can you please try to press save all button to see if this makes any difference for you? |

When I reload the workspace after everthing has been saved, then the first case, selecting the method in main works. All instances of GetValue are found.
The second case, selecting the implementation still doesn't work. Looks like the method is never used. This is actually the case I first noticed in my application. I have tried rebuilding and that doesn't help. |

Find References finds methods in the same class and in derived classes.
But we are considering to allow Find References to search base classes as well as derived classes:
case=3346 |

| In this case, the base is pure virtual, the reference in main is to NewClass::GetValue(). It seems that any find reference should note that this method is called from main(). |
