Hi,
I notice that when I get my selection list after typing the dot:
if ( cbIgnEng.Closed() )
{
}
and I select "Closed" from the list of public methods, it doesn't put the parenthesis, while it does in other objects.
Why?

Which language are your programming in?
Are you looking a completion listbox or a suggestion listbox? |

It is the box that comes up when I attempt to enter the code, so whichever one that is.
The behavior is consistent for this object, and I note that VAX thinks the symbol is "mistyped" as it is underlining it in the color I have set for that behavior in VAX Options.
*Ignore my lack of ';' line should be:
bool Engine::IgnitorsOn(){ return cbIgnEng.Closed(); }
The header is this:
class CircuitBreaker
{
public:
CircuitBreaker(float);
bool PowerAvailable();
bool Open();
bool Closed();
bool OverLoaded();
void SetOpen();
void SetClose();
void Toggle();
void Overload();
void Repair();
private:
float m_amps;
bool m_isOpen;
bool m_isOverLoaded;
bool IsPowerAvail();
};
extern CircuitBreaker cbIgnEng;
And releveant definition:
bool CircuitBreaker::Closed(){ return !m_isOpen; }
Not sure why it won't add the () like it does for my other objects, which are coded in the same way/style.

| I have seen this behavior also, though sporadically. I have not been able to identify the cause. I am also in C++ (Visual Studio 2005 Prof). |

Both suggestion and completion listboxes will appear when typing. For now lets focus on this underlining, this is probably the root problem.
If you place the caret in "cbIngEng" what does VA show in its context and definition fields?
What happens when you use alt-g to jump to the declaration of this variable?
Using the class definition here VA understands the class, so I am wondering if it does not understand the variable. |

Unfortunately (but fortunately!), it is now working. I think it may be a "bug" in VS itself, as the problem has completely disappeared when I closed and restarted the IDE.
It neither underlines it, nor has a problem with the '()' now on that class.
If it happens again, I will find the answers to the above questions.

I am wondering if somehow VA simply had not parsed the correct file. If you see similar problems in the future try triggering a manual re-parse of the file that defines the variable.
VAssistX -> Tools -> Reparse Current File

That is entirely possible and likely, because at time I was moving things from one object to another, and I have a feeling what happened was VAX got confused about where stuff was at.
Thanks for the tip.
