1. I suggest to sort suggestions list, granted be VA, by relevation. Relevation should be calculate as a count of times user select an item from this list. For example: typing "ret" I get a lot of suggestions like "RET_CODE", "RETAING_..." and so on and wanted text "return" - at the end of a list, but I wish to have "return" at the top of a list. If I choose three-four times "return" after typing "ret", it would be a good idea to have "return" at a top of the list, typing it fifth time.
2. I think it's a good idea to give an opportunity to make an exclude list for headers to be parsing. For example: I'd like to exclude "windows.h", "afx.h" and so on from parsing by VA (I'm using QT, and a huge number of constans, defines, functions and so on are unwanted).
P.S. Sorry for my English, I'm a Russian, and if one of you knows my language, please e-mail me. |

Thank you for answer, Feline, but I see some problems to add hundreds Snippets for "return", "true", "false", "bool", "vector" and so on...
The second: even if I changing "VA Options -> Projects -> C/C++ Directories -> Platform to Custom" (as you wrote), I include <QTCore>, that includes <windows.h> and VA parses it and I still have a lot of "SW_...", "SetWindow..." and so on in my suggestion list :(
Thank you. |

Suggestions, if you add a new local variable and then type its name a couple of times is it suggested, and does it quickly become the default suggestion?
I am wondering how wide ranging this problem with suggestions is.
For the windows header files you might find this interesting:

I have a copy of the plugin Bugfix wrote, which you may be able to modify to do what you want. Please note that this is *not* officially supported, but it did seem to work well for him. |

I'm seeing the same problem also quite often. I start typing a lowercase keyword and the first suggestions are some weird uppercase constants. IMHO suggestions should in general consider that I'm typing the case correctly...
Build 1640 (happened also before), VC6.0 + VS2003, Win XP, no other add-ins.

Case and listboxes, this has come up before. A lot of people want to type in lower case but still see mixed and upper case suggestions listed. A good example from http://www.wholetomato.com/products/features/acronym.asp of this is typing "ohg" to get "OnHorzGridLines"
Having said that I have seen several reports of this problem when typing "return". Which keywords are you seeing this problem with? |

As Boris already mentioned, it applies to nearly all keywords and also to other variables. To link the problem to your example: If you type "ohg" and you have a variable named, e.g., "ohgblftz" then it should get a higher ranking in the suggestion list than, e.g., "OnHorribleGrapeWines". But this is my personal feeling.

| If VAX would implement ranking based on capital as it was already suggested several times years ago, this would be much easier. Typing "ohg" would yield different results than "OHG". |

I have put in a case for keywords in suggestion listboxes:
case=17920
Some of this might be helped by:
case=10535
which has the title "give priority to local symbols in suggestion listboxes"
Paying attention to the case of the typing is:
case=119 |
