plugin for Eclipse to filter function signatures [message #1767368]

I wanted to know if while working with Eclipse (latest versions), if there's a plugin to help me choose a function that suits my needs according to its parameters.

Example: I have a function called foo, that takes from 0 to 5 arguments, and let's say the possible number of signatures is too big (500+ overloads). Is there a plugin to help me filter these signatures by constraining the arguments/return type for example? and have a smaller set to choose from by showing them to me? PS: the auto completion isn't helpful and the code is in c/cpp.

I am not aware of any such plug-in, but I find the idea compelling. It would make a great new feature for CDT :-)
