Renaming _field from the structure definition works, but not from within the return statement.
Regards.
namespace test_1
{
struct s
{
int _field;
};
class c
{
std::map<int, s> m;
int f(int p)
{
const auto& i = m.find(p);
return i == m.end() ? 0 : i->second._field;
}
};
}
If you use Alt-G on "_field" you should be taken to its declaration, even though VA is a bit confused about it.
You can run Find References from there, and so long as you have turned On showing:
Display unknown/guess hits (G)
entries in the Find References Results list you should see this entry listed, just as a guess, so with a question mark icon. The problem is that VA does not properly understand the return type of the map::find() function. So now I need to have a hunt through the main STL storage classes and see how many other functions have this problem.
Thank you for reporting this, now I know about it I can work on it
