Alt keys and local variables problems

[Mike_D_Davies@fmo.com]

Hi,

I didn't get a response to the question I posted earlier  so I've appended it to
this.  My new question/problem is that the ALT-key shortcuts don't seem to bring
down the menus (SN5 / Windows).  The shortcuts for the tabbed pane (eg ALT-c for
the class pane,  ALT-v for the retriever) seem to work fine though.  Is this a
known bug ?  Also does anyone have any ideas where I should start to look to fix
this ?   I am a bit stymied when it comes to bug fixing since I don't have
access to VC++ 5 or 6 at work - has anyone tried to use the Borland compiler to
build SourceNav ? (I think this is available as a free download for
non-commercial use).  If not then what changes would I need to make to the build
system to get that to work ?


Thanks for any advice,  sorry about all the questions,

Mike

Hi,

I am running SN 5 under Windows and I have tried to enable "Generate references
to local variables" in the project preferences/xref tab but I still cannot
generate an xref for a local variable.

I have generated a simple project based on the single c++ file below and I can
only see an xref for the variable x,  not the variable y.  I have tried saving
local variable parsing enabled as the default and re-running the project build
but that does not help.

Is this a bug or am I missing something ?

Thanks,

Mike


#include <iostream>

int action();

int x = 0;

int main()
{
     int retval = action();

     int y = 3;

     return 0;
}



int action()
{
     cout << "hello world  !";

     return 0;
}
