Is there a reason why VA displays symbols from another project. One that had not been opened for long time and has a different name?
This happens several times a week and I always need to rebuild the database.
How is the connection from project to database?
How can it happen that the wrong database is opened?
Thanks |

Do you have "Parse all files when opening a project" enabled on the Performance page of the VA Options dialog?

Hi sean,
thanks for the repy.
I'm using the latest VA in Visual Studio 2008 Professional.
"if you opened a file from the project B while you were in project A"
This might be!
"if you add project B to the solution that holds project A"
No
"if your system include directories point to directories the hold files from project B"
No
"if project A has additional include directories that point to project B directories"
No
But when this happens I only see symbols from project B (while project A is opened). I do not see symbols from both projects |

It's not likely that the wrong database was opened. What is more likely is that the project A database is polluted with information from project B - assuming that project A and project B aren't both in the same solution.
Assuming you don't have a solution/workspace that contains both project A and B, this could occur:
- if you opened a file from the project B while you were in project A
- if you add project B to the solution that holds project A
- if your system include directories point to directories the hold files from project B
- if project A has additional include directories that point to project B directories
It might also occur if you have "if solution is no empty" checked on the Projects | File handling page of the VA options dialog.
Probably should have asked first, but what version of VA are you using and in what IDE? |
