When using VC++'s __restrict extension, VA X shows __restrict with a red error underline.

void Foo(void * __restrict a, void * __restrict b)
{
}


Note that __restrict is part of the ISO C99 standard, but that microsoft supports it in C++ as well. It would be nice if VA X did that too.

The new Intel c++ compiler supports restrict keyword (without the underscore prefixes) but VA X doesn't recognize that. To my understanding it's the same thing as the underscored VC++ extension and I'd like to use it because it's shorter to write.

Can you try the following please. Edit VA's "StdAfx.h" file as explained in this FAQ entry:

http://docs.wholetomato.com?W302

and add the entry:

#define restrict __restrict

at the bottom. This file is used to help VA's parser with difficult code, and can be used to work around odd effects. After modifying this file you need to rebuild the VA symbol database for the changes to take effect:

VA Options -> Performance -> General -> Rebuild symbol databases

I have just tried this here, and based on a few simple tests it seems to be working well.
