VS 2008 C++ refactoring...
...well there still is none.
I seem to be pressing commands in VS 2008 Win32 projects which would invoke pretty basic refactoring tools in C# and VB.NET but yet C++ has nothing! Now I know the VC guys are working on a parser that will help with the intellisense in VS C++ projects (yep lonnnng time off yet) - if like me you don't even waste time with intellisense in C++ projects as its just a disappointment when you are there hitting ctrl + space waiting for something (yep, ctrl + space because intellisense never comes up on its own in C++ projects does it?!) that never quite arrives, the result is that you just wasted 5 seconds - you could of typed it by then.
For about 18 months I used to have C# intellisense turned off by default, yes I know you are thinking why and that I'm an absolute plonker, but honestly I just enjoyed having the freedom of typing whatever the heck I wanted and then sorting it out seconds later rather than battling with intellisense trying to tell me what I meant to do was this. Ctrl + space is your friend, needless to say I do have it turned back on in C# now.
Anyway I digress, what I would really, really love to see is primitive help with mundane boring tasks like extracting methods, renaming with a snazzy live preview of everything that I am affecting, who knows maybe even reorder some parameters?
I know VS 2008 launch parties haven't kicked off yet, but I have to say roll on VS vNext.
