It seems to me we need to redesign the Tokenizer::setVarId(). As far as I see it is not possible to fix these tickets with some minor tweaks:

http://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/7443
http://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/7495

Better handling of scopes is needed.

I feel that handling of scopes should only be done in SymbolDatabase. We should not do that in Tokenizer.

Maybe if we add a SymbolDatabase::createScopes() method we could call that before Tokenizer::setVarId() and Tokenizer::simplifyTypedef().

http://trac.cppcheck.net/query?status=!closed&keywords=~varid has more examples, e.g. #4412

That is responsible for some ugly positives in my codebase (see http://trac.cppcheck.net/ticket/7443). Are there any plans to attack this?

I had some plans to do it now... but I think this will be a too big task for me right now.
