All you hardcore C++ devs

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:
Go with VisualAssistX. Much better. Refactor! brings my system to a screetching halt!

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

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.

Whole Tomato is not free. So for anyone who doesn't like paying for add-ins...

Thanks very much for the info. I don't have much time to read The Lounge these days, but I do try to skim it regularly to pick up gems like this. :cool: I now have Refactor C++ installed both at home and work, but of course I haven't had much time to play with it yet. I'm comparing it to Ref++[^], which works very well, enough so that I coughed up my own money to buy it. I have played enough already, though, to see that Refactor doesn't have Ref++'s most useful function, "Symbol Info" (somewhat like VS's Find All References, but with a more useful UI). On the other hand, Refactor is a lot more visual, and has some cool little refactorings that Ref++ doesn't have. On the other hand, I like Ref++'s "Change Function Signature" better than Refactor's equivalent. And so on, and so on. So, I can already see that it'll be good to have both tools to wield in my fight against monster C++ projects with a mind of their own. :)

The C++ refactoring is fairly new for DevExpress. They've been more focused on the .NET stuff to date. But I would expect the C++ to get more polished over time. I'm almost out of the C++ loop these days myself. Haven't done any for about 2 years. The slick UI is the strong point in the DevExpress tools. Plus their DXCore extensibility engine is very powerful. It's free and anyone can write additional plug-ins for it. But it's a bit of a black art. After all, they don't want to make it too easy, otherwise no-one will buy CodeRush and Refactor! :)

Oh dear. After writing that, I fired up a Win32 console app that I've been debugging, and it seems that Refactor C++ causes my Visual Studio to lock up for some reason, at least with that project. :sigh: I tried a few reboots, but I ended up uninstalling Refactor to get my project working again. I do have quite a few other VS add-ins, so it may not be Refactor's fault. But time is pressing, so I must carry on without Refactor since I don't have time to troubleshoot this further. Drat.
