Yesterday, basically while I was working (VS2005 was never closed), VAX started showing me C++ symbols in my C# code. I would type 'm_' to get an auto-complete of my members, and all the sudden I was seeing C/C++ defines like META_SETVIEWSTATE and such. Things like CString were suddenly showing up in my C# auto-completes. It only seems to happen when I do 'm_', other symbols work as expected.
What would cause this? |

that should not happen, and i don't know of anything that would make this happen.
do you have more than one IDE open?
when typing "m_" do the suggestions have question mark icons? this would make a small degree of sense.
what happens if you press CTRL-SPACE on one of these lists?
are you working in a pure C# solution, or does it also contain C++ code?
if you are seeing question mark icons then my first guess is that VA's symbol database has become somehow corrupt. if so telling VA to rebuild the database:
VA Options -> Performance -> General -> Rebuild symbol databases
and restarting the IDE should help. however if these are normal CTRL-SPACE listboxes then this may not help. |

No question marks, the symbols are very much defined. I've rebuilt the symbol database since this happend.
We don't even work with C++ in the office, pure C#/ASP.NET house. The oddest part was how the symbols just showed up mid-session. I never closed my IDE (I never really do, unless I need to). I restarted the IDE this morning and rebuilt the symbols database. I updated to the 9/15 release of VAX, no luck. I am still getting strange C++ symbols when I am looking for auto-completes for my members. These are regular CTRL + SPACE listboxes. I will be happy to post a screen shot if that will help you get a sense of what I mean.
The most annoying part is that if I type something like "m_View", then press ".", it will auto-complete to something wonky like META_SETVIEWPORTEXT. Oddly, if I actually try and type "META_" nothing comes up in the auto-complete at all. Only when I do "m_" do I get basically all of the #define's the Win32 API defines that start with 'm' in my auto-complete box. |

please, a screen shot might help. VA does not generate the items in the completion listboxes, this information comes from the IDE its self.
when you press dot and get "m_View" converted is there any sort of listbox on the screen that is being accepted? |

C++ symbols in C# auto-complete
