How can I refactor C++ source code using emacs?

Question

I\'m interested mostly in C++ and method/class name/signature automatic changes.

Answer 1

With the ccls or cquery, which provide the "language server protocol" (lsp), you can refactor names with:

M-x lsp-rename

Alternative: srefactor uses the emacs semantic-mode framework: https://github.com/tuhdo/semantic-refactor/blob/master/srefactor-demos/demos.org

You can get it with M-x package-install from MELPA or at https://github.com/tuhdo/semantic-refactor/.
