Hello all,
Some day's ago, VA X didn't gave me the info I wish it would gave me, so I turned on the "Default Intellisense" option and restarted VS.Net (2002). Then I got the default intellisense (not that this gave me the info I needed). After working for a while, I turned it off again, but since I was using two instances of VS.Net, it must have been overwritten by the other instance (when quiting both instances).
The day thereafter, I was also using more instances of VS.Net, then I quited all instances except one. I turned off the default intellisence again (it was still on). Quited this instance and restarted VS.Net. I noticed that the default intellisense was used instead of the VA X intelligence. Although the option was off. The next day the same thing (Default intellisense instead of VA X, but the option was off). Then I clicked the "Rebuild database" option, restarted VS.Net and every this was ok. Did someone else noticed this behaviour also?
Another thing: When I now press CTRL+SPACE, the suggestions of the default intellisense keep appearing. Is this by design or should the VA X intelligence kick in here?
Can someone please provide some information about this? Thank you in advance.
With kind regards, Patrick Luja |

"Prefer" implies "not all."
If you type CWnd:: you always get default Intellisense.
Intellisense in non-C/C++ languages is typically from default Intellisense, regardless of setting.
See if the anomoly occurs for all listboxes, or only in specific places. If the latter, give us an example. |

Hello all,
I didn't try to reproduce. I (virtually) always saw the default intellisens (with the non-tomato icons left of them). I can't think of listboxes I saw then (before I manually asked for a rebuild), that weren't default intellisense.
Feline, you say that when you press CTRL-SPACE, you'll see VA X listboxes. I still don't, always when I press CTRL-SPACE I'll get the default intellisence listboxes (without the tomatoes). (The listboxes without the tomatoes are the default intellisense listboxes, aren't they?) The suggestion listboxes are from VA X.
Support, do you recommend a specific procedure that bring the VA X intelligence back to me?
Thank you both for your efforts.
With kind regards, Patrick Luja |

ah, confusion :)
http://www.wholetomato.com/products/features/members.html?more=yes and http://www.wholetomato.com/products/features/suggestion.html?more=yes
are worth a read.
suggestion listboxes are from VAX, these have tomato icons. they only list a few items, not always class members.
completion and member listboxes may be from VAX, or from the IDE. even when these are from VAX, they do not have tomato icons.
i believe the best way to tell if a list box is from VAX is to look at the comments next to the listbox. if it is useful, things like the full function prototype and function comment with syntax highlighting then this is a VAX listbox.
as far as i know there is no key press to make a suggestion listbox appear. they either appear or don't appear all on their own. |

when feeling confused, http://www.wholetomato.com/support/glossary.html is worth a look
i still have to look these things up to double check when posting myself. sometimes it is hard to know what is VAX and what is the IDE. just goes to show how well VAX is integrated into the IDE |

Okay, I screwed up, I admit it.
Thank you feline for clarifying the confusion I made.
With kind regards, Patrick Luja |
