I miss CString::ReleaseBuffer when I type:
CString str;
str.R

Any ideas?

Using current version 1445!

using VS2003, C++ and VA 1445 i cannot reproduce this. both ReleaseBuffer() and ReleaseBufferSetLength() are being suggested.

which IDE are you using? does this happen in a test project? what do you have:

VA Options -> Text Editor -> listboxes -> get content from default intellisense

set to?

Using VS2003 with VA 1445.

The check box "get content from default intellisense" was disabled.

I set it to checked now. I will see.
Even than strange.

i nearly always have this turned off on my machines, so this setting should not make any difference.
if changing this does not help can you try to reproduce this problem in a basic project? it is possible that some project specific settings you have are a factor.

Checked it, doesn't make a difference.
I see this effect in all of my projects! There is nothing special with the projects...

this is odd. i should be able to reproduce this.

a fix has been made in the last few days for suggestions on CString, which should be present in the next build of VA. we are hoping to have a public beta of the new 15xx versions in a few days, which should have this fix. depending on how long it takes this may be the best way forward.

have you tried a new default project to see if you get this problem? there is a small chance that all of your normal projects have the same setting that causes this problem to show up.

What about giving us the "standard debug" information?

Isn't is possible that this is related to stable includes or some other environment-wide setting?

That would be the information from the Visual Assist Options About Window. Select Copy Info and paste into a new message here.

the only thing here that looks odd is the stable include:

Y:\\Projekt\\Common\\Include;

if you do ALT-G on CString where goes VA take you? when i do this i get two options, "atlstr.h" and "visual assist x\\misc\\stdafx.h"

do you see the same problem in a new, default application?

The link to the Y directory is our public libary and include path. It also contains stable includes but no standard classes from the MFC/ATL/CRT...

I get only one option the atlstr.h!
I looked into the stdafx.h in the mic directory and I see that the CString stuff is commented out.

The behaviour is the same in every project I have.

Hmmm. If you put the code back in stdafx.h and rebuild the database, does it then start working again?

VA 1446 has just been posted, which contains some fixes for listing CString members. upgrading to this version may also help.

Hello,
I can verify that the CString bug appears in Visual Studio 2005 on a MFC project. When referencing a CString variable most of the member functions appear except for a notable few (in this case GetLength and ReleaseBuffer come to mind) I am still noticing this bug running the latest build of Visual Assist X (VAX Version 1446). Does anyone know why such members do not appears when using Visual Assist X on Visual Studio 2005?

Sincerely,

James Simpson

strange. using VS2005, VA 1446 and a C++ MFC project i am seeing both GetLength() and ReleaseBuffer() suggested for a CString instance.

are you looking at completion or suggestion listboxes? what do you have:
VA Options -> Text Editor -> listboxes -> get content from default intellisense

set to? are you in a position to try a new default project, to see if this is somehow project specific?

normally installing a new version of VA would trigger a rebuild, so you should not have needed another rebuild. still i am glad this is now fixed
