This is not new to 1438.
I have stuff like:
#define g_Time Time::GetSingletonRef(0)
and VAX isn't parsing the type correctly. This is under VS 2k5. If I type
"g_Time." in code, Nothing shows up. "g_Time.GetSomething(" displays "#define g_Time Time::GetSingletonRef(0)..." in a tooltip, whether or not GetSomething() is a valid function in class Time.
I have the the "evaluate all macros used in definitions" option enabled.

You won't get what you want. VA X doesn't evaluate as you reference symbols, only when you define them. Since you aren't using g_Time in a definition, VA X won't look at what VA X is when you reference it.
You get a tooltip explaining what g_Time is when you use it. VA X isn't checking that you use it correctly. (We omit the lengthy debate over the merit of #define, and why C# doesn't have it, but your example is a plug for proponents of C#.)
Also... We recommend you disable "evaluate all macros..." and rebuild your symbol database. The option is useful only in rare cases (and your not using g_Time in a definition anyhow.) |
