I have a solution checked out multiple times from SVN in one folder (so I can work on multiple things without 2 WIP thing interfering with each other), like this:
E:\\dev\\solution_1
E:\\dev\\solution_2
etc. However, this causes problems when using the "Find Symbol" feature of VA, in a way that the result window offers me the same symbol from both solutions and sometimes I accidentally click on the item from the solution I am currently NOT working on. I can always hover with mouse above the result to display full path to the file containing the symbol, but this gets a little annoying.
Is there a way to tell VA to only use symbols from current solution? ( I understand VA uses only one symbol database or something... ) |

'Watch for externally modified files' is turned off.
This log was generated after I searched for a symbol and it gave me results from other solutions.

VA uses separate symbol databases for each solution, so out of the box, cross-solution contamination should not occur. Cross-contamination can occur if you open files from one solution while the other is loaded. Cross-contamination might occur if your includes are set to share a common directory.
I also recommend disabling "Watch for externally modified files..." on the Performance page of the VA Options dialog.
Generating and submitting a va.log might help us identify problems VA has with your solutions. |
