<p>The Visual Studio refactoring support  for C# is quite good nowadays (though not half as good as some Java IDE's I've seen already) but I'm really missing C++ support.</p>

<p>I have seen <a href="http://www.devexpress.com/Products/Visual_Studio_Add-in/RefactorCPP/index.xml" rel="noreferrer">Refactor!</a> and am currently trying it out, but maybe one of you guys know a better tool or plugin?
<hr>
I've been working with <a href="http://www.wholetomato.com/" rel="noreferrer">Visual Assist X</a> now for a week or two and got totally addicted. Thanks for the tip, I'll try to convince my boss to get me a license at work too.
<hr>
I've been bughunting for a few days since Visual Assist X kept messing up my Visual Studio after a few specific refactorings, It took me (and customer support) a week to hunt down but let's say for now that Visual Assist X is not a good combination with <a href="http://bluemars.org/clipx/" rel="noreferrer">ClipX</a>.</p>
