    Nice. Now, if they had it for vi, which is used by us hardcore C++ guys, that would be even better ;)

    I assume you're aware of the Vim add-in for VS? http://www.viemu.com/[^] Not free but not expensive either.

      I just noticed that DevExpress have released a free refactoring plug-in for VC++ 2005. Refactor!™ for C++[^] There's a video here which gives you an idea http://www.devexpress.com/Products/NET/IDETools/CodeRush/Training.xml[^] I've been using the .NET stuff in Refactor! Pro, so I don't know how well-developed the C++ versions are at this stage.

      Nice! To bad it has problems with big projects. Have anyone tryed this with big projects with succsess? My problem is that devenv.exe process eats 700Mb of memory and goes to 50 to 90% of CPU everytime i use any of the refactor tools. :sigh:

          We are hardcore. We don't use silly refactoring tools. Jus a sec... Yes? What? "WholeTomato"? This charge is legit, no joke. Where was I? :cool:

            If it needs to be "re-factored", then it needs to be "re-written". Real programmers always start from scratch.

              Oh barf. I've got a guy in my group who does exactly that. He runs Visual Studio to do compiles and to debug, but he does his editting in some god-forsaken vi-clone-for-Windows. Line editing, in this day and age. Sheesh.

                  WholeTomato had that problem for quite a while, but the recent builds got it right.

                    You misunderstand what refactoring means. There are two senses of refactoring. One means restructuring old code. The other just refers to the ordinary refinement of live code as you're developing it. Refactoring tools are useful in both cases. But in the first sense we are not always in a position to rewrite, despite being real programmers. Plus even good code can be legitimately refactored because as they say "requirements always change."

                          whiffs of snobbery from the 'hardcore' (binary bores).... ...and maybe stale pizza, Dr. Pepper's and onion ring crisps or whatever they subsist upon. The way things are going, spoon-feed programming tools will be accessible to the masses within our lifetimes and only the best 'binary bores' will survive down at the low levels. The rest might have to get a different career altogether. Tax Law would seem dull and pernickity enough, with syntax you can hide behind. Just a thought. :-) I admit that C++ is bullet fast and an admirable skill, but its abstraction from reality is an obstacle to progress in many projects. I'm glad that (some) end users now stand a chance of designing software and optimising it to be arguably 'good enough' for their planned tasks. Sorry if you would rather Dev remained exclusively geek, but that's so last century. N

                                I don't even care if the ones work! Tight code? All the programs I've ever written reside in the same exe. Just randomly set eip in the image and it will run a program. When we gave Saddam chemical weapons, did we want him to use them?
