using VS .NET 2003 and VAX 1230 sometimes the VAX suggestion box stays around to long. i have just typed in the line:

	QMap<QString, QString> mapNhs002SpecimenType;


after i typed the semi-colon (so keyboard cursor after the semi-colon) the VAX suggestion box (complete with tomato icon) was still present. if i now press enter to start a new line, which i do automatically, then VAX converts this into:

	QMap<QString, QString> mapNhs002SpecimenTypemapNhs002SpecimenType


the semi-colon has been removed, and replaced with a second copy of the variable name.

this effect is "rare", but i have seen it twice in the last half hour. i am not quite sure when it appeared, but i have only noticed this with the last build or two of VAX.

so far i am unable to reproduce this on demand *sigh*

i have been learning XSL for the last couple of weeks, so not doing much C++ editing at the moment, which is why i cannot be more precise about when it appeared.

all right, this has just happened again! that is 3 times already today.


    QMap<QString, QString> mapNhs002SpecimenType;
    QMap<QString, QString> mapPm2SpecimenType;
PM2_SPECIMEN_TYPE
    QFile file(mtQtPMController::pmDataDirectory() + "pathology/code_lists.dat");


i have a screen shot of this one, for what it is worth, and i will email it into support. i had just finished typing the red line. line number 3 is there for reference only, since i am matching my variable names to my enum's.

mapPm2SpecimenType is not referenced anywhere else in the .cpp i have also just done a find in files across the entire solution, and this is the only reference to this variable anywhere, which is what i would expect.

i am torn between being impressed that VAX has detected and suggested the variable so quickly, and wishing it would realise that semi-colon should dismiss this particular type of suggestion.

no other plugins are installed in VS.
