"Member function not present" for all immediate window calls except my own class methods
When trying to debug a program in VS2005, all function/method calls in the immediate window result in the following error:
CXX0052: Member function not present
The solution I build consists of 5 separate projects with dependencies established from the "start-up" project out to the others. I am running a debug build with all optimizations disabled and with debug symbols loaded (or at least so says the project properties). One other thing to note is that this is an MFC project, though I'm trying to maximize my use of compliant-C++ (i.e. standard library) wherever possible instead of using microsoft's "replacement" classes (e.g. CFile).
Other solutions I've seen have been on the order of __declspec(noinline), but that won't work here, since my issue is being able to debug my use of the C++ standard library.
Here's an example:
//sample code
ifstream myFile;
myFile.open("myfile.dat", ios_base::in | ios_base::binary);
if (!myFile.is_open())
{
; //yes, this is an empty statement...there's a breakpoint here
}
When the program breaks, I want to do things like this in the immediate window:
//here's how I would expect the immediate window to look:
myFile.is_open() //call
false //result
myFile.fail() //call
true //result
myFile.clear(ios_base::goo
//no return value
Any ideas?

The most likely reason is because the functions are inline (if they are defined within the class body as most template code is then this is implicitly the case) and so the functions really don't actually exist in the compiled code.
I tested this theory and it seems to hold true...
[IMMEDIATE WINDOW OUTPUT]
t
{...}
t.outline_func()
2
t.inline_func()
CXX0052: Error: member function not present
Microsoft suggests option /Ob0 to force inlining off but I was not able to get it working with this option either.
Sorry, I can't help further.

#include <string>
struct test
{
int inline_func() { return 1; }
int outline_func();
};
int test::outline_func()
{
return 2;
}
int main()
{
test t;
}

So it seems that the best way to go here would be to provide static wrappers for the functions that I'd like to use, is that correct?
>> is that correct?
It's the only solution I managed to find for this problem, yes.
