Doesn't matter, the above was just an example with a typo. I've
tried Alexanders engine and same problem but it shows templates
and some build in functions the list. None of the members I have
created work.

It is possible it is some weird issue with my setup but it does
not do what is expected.

It might be something with demangling? I had issues getting it to
build in the first place and maybe I hacked it up that makes it
work but only partially.
