Suppose this header isn't found:
#include "feline.h" We want to correct the filename and type mammal/ or mammal- in front of it. Typing the / (or - or . or pretty much anything not alphanumeric) inside the quotes deletes the whole path.
(this may stem from case=8234) |

Uniwares reported something very similar a little while ago, but I was totally unable to reproduce the problem.
Are you doing this in a cpp or header file? Does this even matter? If you type in a directory name that does Not exist do you still see this problem?
I have tried this in a cpp file, VS2005, VA 1626, with a fake directory and file and a valid directory and file. No problem in either case.
Does it make any difference if you use "\\" instead of "/" after the directory name? |

It happens both in any kind of file, and whether the directory or resulting filename exists or not. Type "\\" erases just as well as the other non-alphanumeric keys (which includes space).
In the case of "/" or "\\", if the prefix looks like an existing directory, sometimes a suggestion box pop ups for a second and disappears, and leaves the partial directory
It happens consistently for square brackets.
#include <sysstat.h>
Type a "\\" between "sys" and "stat" and I see:
The suggestion box and tooltip disappear after 1 second. |

Can you please go to:
VA Options -> System Info -> Copy Info
and paste the details (from the clipboard) into this thread. This will give us the basic information about your setup.
Do you have any other plugin's installed? Is there anything "odd" about your system that might give me a clue? |

*sigh* I am still not seeing the problem.
Same OS, same IDE, save version of VA, same Font. I have installed Eluent Tools version 1.90, after VA, selecting to install all components.
I even re-installed VA afterwards, just in case, and rebooted.
Can you please export your VA and IDE settings and send them to me:
VA Options -> Performance -> Export Settings IDE tools menu -> Import and Export Settings -> Export selected environment settings
Please submit the files via the form:
http://www.wholetomato.com/support/contact.asp
including this thread ID or URL in the description, so we can match it up. I can then import your settings and see if that makes any difference. |

Thank you for the settings, I can now reproduce the problem:
case=12025
This only happens if you have VA's Repair Case option turned off. Turn it on and this problem stops happening. |

That option and I don't get along well. I have no use for it and it bugs me. If I have a variable "cat" of type "Cat*", and I add a function call, for instance type pet(cat, , VA often turns this silently into pet(Cat,
However in 2 days with the option on, I only had this once, and no more include path trouble. So thank you for a good workaround. |
