Description Mark Stanton 2014-08-28 18:53:15 UTC
When the code import cannot resolve an item itself as either "namespace" or "class" it presents a dialog asking the user to resolve the issue.
However, in a large project, particularly an unfamiliar one, it is very difficult to know where the code is that is being resolved, and hence it is very hard to give the correct answer.
By switching to the mode that displays filenames with status it is easier, but the list is sorted alphabetically with no reference to containing directory (at least when the dialog is active), which can make it difficult to track down the source

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Import project with multiple directories via the code import wizard
2. Select the file tab (ie not the log tab)
3. Start import
4. Wait until the importer asks for resolution on some item
5. Guess which directory the file is in...


Expected Results:  
Show the directory as well as the file which contains the code to be resolved, preferably on the dialog itself.

The Help about box says this is version 2.13.3, which is not an option in the version list above

You're in luck:
Ralf Habacker very recently got rid of the "help request" dialog by making the C++ import smarter.
This is yet unreleased; in order to try it out you need git master.
