Maybe it would be better to change the pdb parser to use that function instead (as it allows the user to specify not only accessibility, but also other potentially useful properties of the created method -- static, virtual, etc.).

In the mean time, I'll try to figure out how to get the NativePDB plugin's `ResolveSymbolContext` implementation to use `AddMethodToCXXRecord`.

No idea about the PDB parsing code, but `PdbAstBuilder::GetOrCreateFunctionDecl` seems to be the right place. It already has a check for when the context is a TagDecl or a namespace, so doing the same thing for the CreateFunctionDecl call below should do the trick (namespace -> CreateFunctionDecl, TagDecl -> AddMethodToCXXRecordType).

> I'll also assume that, since you don't want my access-fixup in `TypeSystemClang::CreateFunctionDeclaration`, then you also would want me to remove the already-existing such fixup from `TypeSystemClang::CreateFunctionTemplateDecl`.  Does that make sense?

Confusingly FunctionTemplateDecls *can* be inside a record and the name is just misleading. The actual specialisations of a FunctionTemplateDecl in a record are again CXXMethodDecls, so `CreateFunctionTemplateDecl` is fine:

  struct Foo {                                                                    
    template<typename T>                                                          
    int x() {                                                                     
      return 3;                                                                   
    }                                                                             
    int foo() {                                                                   
      return x<double>();                                                         
    }                                                                             
  };
