I installed 1444 and if I type <class name>:: the list of all members pops up automatically and there is no option to turn it off. I would really like this to be optional. The most common case of writing class:: is when creating new member functions. The listbox is just getting in the way.
In VS6 there is a VAX option "Auto list members". This option controls if the listbox will appear after "ptr->" and "class::". I have that option turned off.
In VS2003 there is no VAX option for it. There is one in the IDE options under Text Editor -> C/C++. When that option is turned on I get the Visual Assist listbox after "ptr->" and "class::". When that option is turned off the listbox doesn't show up after "ptr->", but appears after "class::".
So the problem is that VAX tries to respect the IDE option in VS2003, but fails in some cases.
But I still don't understand why. The docs say "Regardless of settings, the content of listboxes after typing :: is always taken from default Intellisense." Meaning it shouldn't affect the behavior after "class::".
Also, what are the other consequences of that option? Does it lead to different listbox contents, or slower performance or something?
