title: invoking functions while debugging with Visual Studio 2005?
body: <p>Here's something I know is probably possible but I've never managed to do<br>
  In VS2005(C++), While debugging, to be able to invoke a function from the code which I'm debugging.<br>
  This feature is sometimes essential when debugging complex data structures which can't be explored easily using just the normal capabilities of the watch window.<br>
  The watch window seem to allow writing function calls but every time I try it it gives me one error or another. </p>
  
  <p><code>Error: symbol "func" not found</code><br>
  <code>Error: argument list does not match function</code><br>
  <code>Error: member function not present</code></p>
  
  <p>Did anyone ever succeed in making this work properly?
  What am I missing here?</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong> clearly, the function called should be a symbol that exists in the current scope the debugger is in.</p>
