Hi,

I am using Visual Assist with C++ and 2008 with Version 10.4.1619.0. build 2007.11.20.

This has been experience by colleagues as well, but I am developing cross platform network code. This requires us to run multiple copies of Visual Studio with the same project. This appears to cause problems with Visual Assist. One IDE locks and the working one reports:

VA X: Waiting for other instance of Visual Studio to flush DB

Any ideas how to resolve this. We've temporarily turned VAX off.
This also occured on the previous build of VAX.

Thanks and regards

Gavin Wood

When you say the same project is this multiple copies of the same project in different directories, or actually one copy in one directory opened several times?

In my experience the IDE gets excited when you open the same project in the same directory more than once, since only one IDE gets access to the NCB file, assuming you have left the IDE's default intellisense enabled.

How many instances of the IDE are you running? Just two? Or more?
How quickly are you seeing this problem?

I also see the same problem, but I am not opening the same project/solution in two sessions. I would often have the same file open in two sessions though. In a few hours VAX stops working in both sessions (Alt-G does not work, no auto-complete popup, but coloring seems to work). One of the sessions will display "Waiting to flush DB..." message. When this happen, I can no longer exit either session. Trying to close a session would hang on the start page (the solution would close). I have to kill devenv processes using Task Manager. Reopening works fine.

We have made some changes internally to how the database handling works. These changes will show up in the next build, and hopefully they will help.

No. There will be database management changes in the beta build that appears after the next general release (hopefully 1638) makes it out.
