[br]Hi,
I have noticed that the BCL generics are not parsed/handled correctly.  I was hoping the latest 1632/1635 releases would fix the problem, but the issue is still present.

The issue really is that the suggestion dropdown box is essentially empty.

Here's some example code that illustrates the problem.

[code]
#include "stdafx.h"

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Collections::Generic;

int main(array<System::String ^> ^args)
{
	List<String^>^ stringList = gcnew List<String^>;
	String^ newItem = "first item";

stringList->Add(newItem);

Console::WriteLine(L"Hello World");
    return 0;
}
[/code]

If you type a line like:
[code]
newItem->
[/code]
you get an appropriate suggestions box of "String" things, right?

But if you type a line like:
[code]
stringList->
[/code]
you either get absolutely no suggestion box, or a suggestions box that has one item "?array".

And it happens with the other generic types too.

Thanks,
--Zach

feline	Posted - Apr 29 2008 : 11:33:05 AM I am seeing the same effect here. Thank you for the clear description. case=16372 For now can you try turning On: VA Options -> Advanced -> Listboxes -> Get content from default Intellisense this fixes the problem for me, on my test system.
