I was wondering if there are any plans to fix/refactor/add support for Managed C++ in Visual Studio 2003. I don't know if there is supposed to be support for it but I haven't had any luck getting it to work at all, most of my problems/frustrations come from the function parameters tooltips, as they are all wrong for instance:

MessageBox::Show()
Show's up as "void Show()" which is incorrect.

mangedTreeviewClass->SelectedNode->Nodes->Add();
Show's up as "int Add (HICON hIcon)" which is also incorrect.

This seems to happen with 90-100% of my managed objects, What's worse if I turn Visual Assist X off Microsoft's Intellisense shows the correct ones. I really like all the other features VAX offers so it's a shame to have to turn it off when I want to work with Managed C++

Thanks!

can you give me a couple of examples to try in a managed C++ console application? not knowing anything about .NET or managed C++ this seemed like a good place to start. adding:
MessageBox::Show();

to the _tmain() doesn't seem to be a sensible test though, and the wizard bar + tooltips are totally off the wall.

the correct include would also be useful, so i will know i have some working code. the wizard bar and tooltip info for the:
Console::WriteLine(S"Hello World");

line that _tmain came with look reasonable to me.

Assuming you have build 1272, you might enable "Get contents from default Intellisense" on the Listboxes node of our options dialog.
