Hello!

Somehow confusing, if i have local variables, their were shown correctly.
In the header file it shows the variables correctly, too:


but in the cpp-file of this Object, their are unknown:


And if i put something in from intelisense it goes completely wrong:


Is this a well known Bug? Or did I set some Settings wrong?

Thanks

Does your cpp include your header?

If you click on your include statements, does the full pathname of the correct header appear in the definition field?

Have you saved the files in your example or are they brand new? In other words, is the problem contained to a specifc set of source and headers?

Hello!

No other Addins installed.

If I create a new simple MFC-Project, then VA know the default Member Variables, if I insert new Edit-Field with a Membervariable it takes a long time until VA recognise it.
But if I type this CString Member with DOT at and, it give me no Member-Methods list, neither if I press STRG+SPACE.
In this new Project, VA dont even know the simplest Methods, like UpdateData(), it is red-underlined.

I woked bevore with Visual Studio .Net 2003, there VA worked fine.
This described Problems happends since i changed to other (new) workstation with (only) Visual Studio 6.0 Enterprise Edition (no Service Packs) and WinXP Pro on it.

what version of VC6 were you using before? it is almost as if VA does not work properly with VC6 enterprise edition, which does not sound right.

if you disable VA and try the code:

CString sTest;
sTest.|


what happens? what happens when you press CTRL-SPACE? does turning on or off the VA option text editor -> listboxes -> get content from default intellisense
have any effect on this?

No, turning on (and then turning on VA again) has no effect...

with VA enabled what happens of you use VA's alt_g on the class name "CString"? this should work, but if it does not can you post the information from:

VA options -> about -> copy info

you have posted some of this already at the top of this thread, but there should be three other headings, hopefully with entries, "Stable Includes", "Library Includes" and "Other Includes"

What you mean with "use VA's alt_g on the class name CString" ???
If I press ALT_GR on it, nothing happends, ALT_GR+RightMouseClick nothing happends, too. Or did you mean something else?
The Contens and Definition Field at top shows correctly: CString | class CString {...}

He meant you should put the caret within CString and press ALT + G.

PanicMan i was referring to VA's "go to" feature, hopefully WannabeeDeveloper comments helped. you should be taken to the .h defining CString, which on my machine is:

C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\MFC\\Include\\AFX.H

this directory is in your "Library Includes:" list, so this should work. if VA cannot find the header this would explain why it cannot list the class members for a CString instance.

if you open VA's "Open Files In Workspace" dialog does it list the files correctly? or does the title bar say that it is still parsing files?

i am trying to gather clues as to what is happening in this case.

Ok, WannabeeDeveloper's comment helped.

If I press Alt+G on CString he correctfully jumps to:
C:\\Programme\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\MFC\\Include\\AFX.H

If I open VA's "Open Files In Workspace" dialog it lists all the files correctly.
The title bar say just "Open File in Workspace".

Sean: Sure, I'm able to test a new version. I'm just using a Trial Visual Assist X 10.1.1418.0 atm.

Ok, downloaded it and installed.

But the problem keeps. May be it is more worse.

If I press ALT+G on a CString it jumps now to:
C:\\Programme\\Microsoft Visual Studio\\VC98\\Include\\CSTRING
witch is just an CString standard header...

And CString is now darkred, like a function and not blue, like a class.

CString root;
root.|

If I try the code above, it changes the "." to an "->" but gives no list with members.

Enabling "Get contens from default intellisense" has no effect.

Any other Ideas?

After rebuilding symbol databases, it seems to work correct. The problems above are gone.

CString test;
//1
test.|

//2
test::|

With "Get contens from default intellisense" I get nothing at the first case, at the second case, I get the Member-List. If I turn it off, it works fine now.

If I recognise some errors, i will post them here.

Thanks a LOT!
