Two parts to this one:

1. In VC6, in a new project, if I simply type in std::, I get a dropdown with types from the std namespace. However, the class 'exception' is not in that list. It should be.

2. When I type out std::exception, the dropdown will have 'bad_exception' highlighted (since 'exception' is not in the list). When I then press the space key, it replaces 'std::exception' with 'std::bad_exception'. Very annoying! The replacement doesn't seem to happen if I type it out very fast. But if I do even a slight pause anytime after the dropdown appears, it will happen.

I'm running build 1539, but I remember this happening in previous builds as well.

Thanks for your help.

The currently selected item in a completion listbox is accepted when you type space, since this is what VC6 does when VA is not installed, so VA is being consistent.

Interestingly with VA disabled the IDE on its own will not suggest std::exception either.
