Following the problem I got in my previous post (see http://forum.wholetomato.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3712) I installed 1413 just to see if you would work better.
After installation, as the symbols weren't recognized properly -as a consequence from the problem- I hit Rebuild in the VAX panel and restarted Visual Studio. The problem now is that after waiting for a bit for VAX to parse the files, I get this:



Is that normal? Does that mean VAX skipped some of the symbols because of this error? I've also attached a directory dump in case it can help: http://web.newsguy.com/AlexPhotos/dir-dump.txt

EDIT: Actually this seems to happen anytime I type something in a c file and then move the cursor up or down. (while parsing is still in progress). Once I got the error message, it seems something gets stuck in loop somewhere as the 'Parsing' message at the bottom stops updating (as long as the text edit window is active). As soon as I click and pop-up the Solution Explorer tab or the Output tab, the parsing seems to resume but stops again after a second or so. Very weird.

using vs2003 and VA 1413 i have just tried this. i added a .c file to a C++ project, told VA to rebuild its symbol databases and then restarted the IDE. i then preceded to add new code the .c file and move the caret up and down the file with the arrow keys while VA was still parsing. no problems, no error messages.

this is definitely not normal, i have never seen such an error message myself and i don't recall anyone reporting it before.

can you try telling VA to rebuild its symbol databases and clear the history and cache? both options are in VA options -> performance.

with luck this will fix the problem.

FKS, are you using a german or otherwise localized IDE (instead of english)?

The Stausbar often ceases to update when VAX is parsing, so it really is finished parsing while it still shows it's parsing a file.
Opening a .cpp or .h file from the projet resets the statusbar then.

I'm getting this again, after DevStudio mysteriously disappeared (it had been sitting doing nothing for a while - similar to when I had a power-out yesterday) Looks like it's a corrupt file or something. Rebuilding cache symbol db requires a reset anyway so it's hard to tell if what's fixing it (the rebuild or the restart)

FKS: Can you send us your email address so we can send you a test DLL?

feline:

When I mean c file I really meant a C++ file (cpp), I don't know if that really matters. I didn't add any new file to my project like you suggested. Before the bug appeared, I did what you said, ie.clicked on both 'Clear' and 'Rebuild' then restarted the IDE. The bug will happen just shortly after restarting (don't remember if it was right at the begining), whenever I start typing and moving the cursor up or down.

I'm not using a localized IDE.

i often do some editing of C++ (cpp) files before VA has finished parsing and i am not seeing this. hopefully supports test dll will help.
