Hi,
First, thanks for fixing up most of the colouring issues I'd reported in 1238/1239.. things look much better now.
I've noticed a minor colouring issue that I thought I'd report.
If I do this:
float myFloat;
Then both 'float' and 'myFloat' are coloured correctly (with 'myFloat' being displayed in the VAX 'Variables' colour.
If I do this:
float base;
Then 'base' is displayed in the VAX 'Methods' colour. Selecting the word shows no existing definition of the word 'base' known by VAX. I was unable to find it in any of the autotext files (I thought I'd check, even though I have autotext suggestions turned off).
So, on screen it kinda looks like this:
float myFloat;
float base;
Which isn't right, is it?
Thanks, Dean |

i am getting this quite a lot in VS .NET 2003, C++ and VAX 1239
http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=2435
i am also seeing other examples. the variable names seem to be defined somewhere as class member functions. the problem is that a lot of common variable names are effected by this
edit - the effected code compiles and executes correctly, and as far as i know the matching members are not members of the current class. |

1239 seems to have the behaviour to color anything that is defined ANYwhere. Even if its totally out of context. I can define a member variable "someName" and use someName in a totally unrelated file, without any include, import, whatever and someName is still colored as known variable. Same if i had a function "someName" somewhere, then all unrelated references are colored as functions. that is extremly confusing in 1239. |

I agree, but I'm still on 1233. And I didn't think it was a new problem either.
I have "Guess symbol definition" off. |

it seems a lot worse in the last couple builds, including 1239. the problem with impressions is it is hard to be 100% certain. |

It IS a lot worse. Especially annoying is it when a variable is colored as type or function. Guessing is off for me me too. |
