I can't remember what it's called, but this feature of VC++ basically catalogs all the functions of a project, lets you right click on a function and go directly to it's declaration or definition, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars. it also gives you an info bubble of the variable types as you're typing a function's name.

this is a very convenient feature, and I'd like to use it with KDevelop, or really any full C++ IDE for linux. does such a thing exist?

Some Googling found this thread on the vim-dev list:

http://marc.info/?l=vim-dev&m=104869981729182&w=2

which pointed (...eventually) to this vim plugin:

http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=527

along with lots of other discussion on how to do it. Looks like people are talking about it, if not actually doing it.

As for actual IDEs, no idea.
