I'm not sure if this is a problem with VAX or VS 2005 SP1, but every now and then VS hangs and I have to wait until this "Updating IntelliSense..." disappears.
If I disable VAX, the problem goes away. Also note that "Get content from default Intellisense" is NOT checked.
Anybody else suffering from this? I had the same problem with 1559, so it is not a new issue. |

See here for information on disabling the IDE's intellisense:

There is a undocumented way to disable C++ Intellisense:
Rename or delete the following file:
<VS root path>\\VC\\vcpackages\\feacp.dll |

Most odd, but I am glad the problem is fixed. |

After installing the SP 1 Beta for Vista the problem has gone - I doubt it was really related to a Vista problem, but it's gone now... strange...

Personally I don't spend much time running Vista either, but some of our users are using it as their primary OS.
Can you try deleting the NCB file from the root directory of the solution? I have seen corrupt NCB files cause various problems, including a crashing IDE. I have never seen exactly what you are describing, but it is a good place to start. |

Yes, all patches are installed - even all hotfixes that are available at Microsoft Connect.
DevStudio is run as an administrator.
Since I run Vista only for testing purposes and only if I must ( ;-) ), I think have not seen this behaviour before - but I am not very sure about this.

Henrik

Henrik that sounds like a much more serious problem. Have you seen this problem in any previous version of VA?
Are you running VS2005 as an administrator?
Have you installed VS2005 SP1 and the Vista specific VS2005 patch?
I have VS2005 with VA 1561 running here on Vista without any such problems, and the IDE's intellisense is enabled. This suggests it is not a general problem, so we need to find out why you are having this problem. |

I have the same problem - Visual Studio 2005 freezes sometimes whilst updating Intellisense, but only on Vista.
The process does not recover, I have to kill Visual Studio 2005 then.
Without Visual Assist everything runs fine...

This is almost certainly a clash between the IDE's intellisense parser and VA's parser. The status bar message sounds like it is coming from the IDE. All VA status bar messages should start with VA.
Can you try disabling the IDE's C++ intellisense as described here:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W133
On larger projects the IDE's intellisense causes this problem all on its own, without having VA installed. |

I am almost having the same problem. VS uses a lot of memory and runs slow. Sometimes, it just hangs or restarts. I uninstalled VAX and I have no problems. I jump back and forth from C#, C++/CLI and "native" C++. |
