[br]I'm trying to create an enum with a macro ex.

As you can see VAX recognizes all except Car2, the last parameter.  Enum11 likewise will not recognize the last two parameters.

Here's the code in text.
[code]
#define ENUM(name,...)\  enum name{__VA_ARGS__};
ENUM(Hello, Hi, Bye, Later, Woah, Hey, There, Argh, Lost, Car );
#define ENUM10(name,P1,P2,P3,P4,P5,P6,P7,P8,PNOTRECOGNIZED2)\  enum name{P1,P2,P3,P4,P5,P6,P7,P8,PNOTRECOGNIZED2};
ENUM10(WhyHi, Hi2, Bye2, Later2, Woah2, Hey2, Ther2e, Argh2, Lost2, Car2 );
[/code]

You can see I also attempted a macro var args version, but this didn't work at all.  It would be nice if support for this is added.

I also turned off LimitMacroParsing, but that didn't help.

Thanks in advance.

feline	Posted - Feb 25 2011 : 2:09:34 PM That makes more sense, since this did seem an odd approach if you just wanted to create an enum on its own.
Dracola	Posted - Feb 25 2011 : 1:14:25 PM I am using it for reflection. In addition to making an enum I also do some other stuff with the parameters that binds them to lua and my serialialization system.
feline	Posted - Feb 25 2011 : 1:11:59 PM I am seeing the same effect here. Thank you for the clear description. case=55561 As a work around for the item "Car2" not being listed in the listbox, turning on: VA Options -> Advanced -> Listboxes -> Get content from default Intellisense helps for me. Out of interest, why are you using a macro to create an enum? Off hand I am not sure why you would want to do this.
