I have discovered a bug in the parsing of enumerations that include the word "THROW". Apparently, the parser confuses it with the keyword "throw".
Any enumeration items that appear after "THROW" are ignored. They show in black instead of magenta, and the autocomplete fails.
--------
Example:
--------
// C++
enum {
WALK,
RUN,
THROW,
JUMP,
FLY
};
// can autocomplete WALK, RUN, and THROW, but not JUMP or FLY.

I'm sure you can find, if you search, a #define for THROW that equates it to throw under some circumstances.
Yep, here is what VA finds when I just type THROW by itself in a file that only includes stdlib.h, crtdbg.h and some STL includes:
C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\\Vc7\\atlmfc\\include\\afx.h:
#define THROW(e) throw e

you can argue that name hiding / scope should allow this to make sense. placing this enum into a cpp file in a C++ project, using VS 2003 and VA 1421, and i am getting the following:
if i type 'f' then i get to select and enter "FLY". are you getting this all over the place? is there something "odd" about your system or mine? |

The define in afx.h may in fact be the problem, but I tried an #undef THROW and that didn't solve the bug.
I don't have a license for the latest build, but it looks like it has been fixed.
Thanks for your responses! |

Unfortunately, #defines ignore any scoping rules that you try to put in place.

*considers* if they are included, this is true. i try to avoid them personally, since they do "things" to my code, which i don't tend to trust 
VA's problem is that it does not know which #defines are going to be active at compile time, so it cannot take them as gospel. |
