Hello all,

It seems to me, that the autocompletion function isn't really caseinsensitive.

When I type AFXMessage no autocompletion box appears, but when I type afxmessage or AfxMessage the autocompletion box does appear, stating AfxMessageBox.
So if I do place capitals where there should be non-capitals, the autocompletion function is broken.

In other cases when there is a function getSomething(), hence the little character g, and I type gET, the autocompletion box does appear, but when I type Get, it doesn't

Has someone else noticed such a behaviour also?
And could the fine team of Whole Tomato do something about this, please. It's a little bit annoying...
Thank you in advance.

With kind regards,
Patrick Luja

Hello all,

Has anyone else see this behaviour?
Is it clear what my message states?
What do other think about this?

And what does the team of Whole Tomato think about this?

With kind regards,
Patrick Luja

Yes I can repro the same with AfxMessageBox.
It works if you type ::AFXME.

The behaviour should always be the same.

Hello all,

I was brouwsing through my postings of the last year, and I encountered this posting. It seems the behaviour from the origional message is still in VA X 1287.

I must say (although somewhat late) MartinRichter's suggestions works.

I hope the fine team of Whole Tomato, can take a look at this (rather important) feature.

With kind regards,
Patrick Luja

I'll try to reproduce this tonight (although without MFC, so no AfxMessage here), and when I am able to, I'll assign a case to it in the BugBase...

Since I do not use MFC, is there any hint you could give me to make reproducing easier for me?
Simply type 'Mysql_q' instead of 'mysql_q' or 'mYSQL_q' to see 'mysql_query' not suggested by VAX?

Hello WannebeeDeveloper,

I've used ::AfxMessageBox, so I suggest you take such a function, that begins with one capital and has one or more capitals in the middle.
(I could reproduce this yesterday.)

I've also used a member function MyClass::getSomething(), so another example would be a member function, starting with a non-capital and has one or more capitals in the middle. (I didn't try to reproduce this, yesterday.)

So I guess you'll be able to reproduce this (at least the second one).

Thank you for your efforts.

With kind regards,
Patrick Luja

interesting. using .NET 2003, VAX 1289 and C++ sitting in the middle of a function i just typed:

::AFXMESSA

as soon as i got to "::" a completion listbox appeared, and as i typed it quite happily zeroed in on AfxMessageBox

are you seeing this with completion listboxes (on ctrl+space) or suggestion listboxes (with question mark icons) ?

the current function has a pointer to a structure (pstData).

typing "PSTD" produces a suggestion listbox for "pstData" just fine.

the only obvious setting is text editor -> correction -> repair case, which i have turned On.

would you expect me to see your problem doing this?
