vscode "No refactoring available" c++, (with arduino extention)

I'm getting this error message, while I'm programming my Arduino project and pressing CTRL+SHIFT+R for refactoring:

No refactoring available

I'm getting this as well in my .cpp files as in my .ino or .h files. I got the extensions Arduino, C/C++, C++ Intellisense installed and my file programming language is set to C++. my vscode extensions

I'm using vscode on Ubuntu 18.10. I installed vscode with these instrucitons from the repository and it is updated to the newest version (1.31.0). What am I doing wrong?

Here are some other inforamtions from "about" in vscode:

I already posted this question here, but I weren't aware of this recommendation before: https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/new/choose

Solution

  • Okay, seems like it isn't even implemented yet, so it is not possible.

    Sources:

    Visual studio code refactoring does not seem to work (e.g. rename symbol - f2)

    Edit:

    Renaming is implemented since C++ tools extention 0.26.
