I use /**/ auto-surrounding by pressing * key quite often. However, I always get surprised when I try to replace reference sign (&) with pointer by selecting & and pressing * - is it possible to get an exception?
I pre-1421 builds, I got a feeling there was a following feature (or bug, or coincidence): after some word is typen and then ESC key is pressed, no autocomplete, no case correction, no . to -> conversion was performed. Could I have this feature back? :) I've noticed that 1421+ builds much more often do wrong or unwanted case corrections and I have to put in too much effort for my token to stay written as I wanted to. :|
P.S. C++ parser is really noticably better. Very nice!

Build 1440 includes a special case for surrounding of ampersand. Surround with * replaces ampersand with * -- it does not comment the ampersand. |

the easiest way to get another solution is to simply create a new default solution in the IDE and see if the problem happens in that code. this helps to pin down if this is a machine or solution specific problem.
it certainly does not require any amount of programming  |

I don't know about other solutions - I currently use (and have, really!) only one. :)
About the version... Always the latest one (1424).

*ah* i see now. we are using English slightly differently, so i did not follow what you meant. for me after undoing CONST, so it is back to const i can type space, and const is left alone.
does this happen in more than one solution? which version of VA are you currently using?

Currently, VS6 with WndTabs and SmartHelp2, english.
Once again, the problem is following:
I type const, it converts into CONST, I press ctrl+z (undo), it goes to const and then I press space (to continue typing) and it goes back to CONST. Undo, undo, it's const, then space and it's CONST again.
It wasn't doing in pre-1421 versions. It was sometimes stubborn, but not infinitely. And I remeber ESC key helping, which currently does not.

which IDE and version of VA are you using? any other plugin's installed? are you using a localised IDE or version of windows?
when you say "it infinitely converts to uppercase" what exactly do you mean? for me the problem only shows up in one solution using VA 1424, and it seems to be limited to just "const" becoming "CONST". you seem to have a more wide ranging version of this problem. |

No need to - it's always similar to the sample you gave. :)
And, previously, if I pressed ESC or undo, case wouldn't be converted on the next key press, but now, it infinitely converts to uppercase/autocomplete and I have to madly click around to get rid of it. ;)

i am a little wary of special case exceptions, but replacing & with * is a fairly clear cut situation i have put in a request and we will see what the developers make of it
case=788
how easily can you reproduce this case convert effect? you may be seeing the same problem i am, but currently it only happens to me on one machine using 1424. when i try to convert:
static void testCase( void *p )
to
static void testCase( const void *p )
i am instead ending up with
static void testCase( CONST void *p )
can you produce a small piece of code and typing instructions that reproduces this effect? |
