MrJones4u	Posted - Jun 15 2006 : 3:54:07 PM Hi, when typing :: VAX expands it to :_GetBaseClass: When typing :: after e.g. a class name it depends on the VAX's understanding of the class (I guess that the _GetBaseClass part may vary from project to project type). so typeing something like: CTimeline_Occurrence::ERepeatType::eeInterval ends up being: CTimeline_Occurrence::ERepeatType:_GetBaseClass:eeInterval and sometimes even: CTimeline_Occurrence:_GetBaseClass:ERepeatType:_GetBaseClass:eeInterval Using: VS6 Good Luck! cu, Michael PS: Apart from the "minor" bug this is some cool stuff!

feline	Posted - Jun 27 2006 : 4:52:18 PM sigh personally i like the non compliant form, it is a lot easier to see what you are doing when working with a library class that contains 15 enum types. that compiled cleanly for me in VS2003, but VS2005 produces a warning, and my UNIX C++ compiler does not compile it at all.
MrJones4u	Posted - Jun 26 2006 : 4:38:13 PM Yes, guess so... sad only that the VC6 does not know that ... Not doing it for fun. cu, Michael
Staffan	Posted - Jun 26 2006 : 4:31:33 PM However, it is not standard compliant C++ to qualify with the Enum name. CTimeline_Occurrence::eeInterval is OK. CTimeline_Occurrence::ERepeatType::eeInterval is a violation. see http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173704.aspx. Regards /Staffan

feline	Posted - Jun 17 2006 : 3:18:08 PM ah, well it was a good theory while it lasted so far this bug is only showing up in VC6, which is something. i have flagged this as urgent and needing to be fixed soon, for obvious reasons.
MrJones4u	Posted - Jun 17 2006 : 1:42:24 PM I'm actually trying to type an enum member identifier of an enum which is defined within a class - so without entering the :: I can't access the enum. Same for stuff in namespaces. Luckly I encounter these type of situation only ever so often. Guys using STL must go nuts... CTimeline_Occurrence::ERepeatType::eeInterval as in: class CTimeline_Occurrence { public: enum ERepeatMode { . eeInterval, . } m_eRepeatMode; . . }
feline	Posted - Jun 17 2006 : 12:30:02 PM case=1331 from your description it looks like you are typing the implementation for a class member function. i have been using the refactoring beta long enough now that i never do this for this specific case using "Create Implementation" should be a very nice work around. however there are still times when you will run into this bug, but hopefully it will be fixed soon.
MrJones4u	Posted - Jun 15 2006 : 6:04:50 PM Jupp.... sure does! cu, Michael
feline	Posted - Jun 15 2006 : 5:53:42 PM if you look here: http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=4772 does this seem to be the same as the first problem described in this thread?
