Attempting to find references on class constructors finds all references to the class itself.
Example:
class Test
{
public:
Test();
Test(const Test& source);
explicit Test(int value);
private:
int someData;
};
int main()
{
Test t1;
Test t2(t1);
Test t3(5);
return 0;
}
Attempt to find references on any of the 3 constructors. All "Test" occurrences will be highlighted.
in general, finding all calls to the constructor is hard. What about copy constructors and possible casts?
There is also the second problem of overloaded constructors. Currently VA does not distinguish between overloaded methods, but this is something we are aware of and considering addressing.
