Is there a way to have VAX just parse 1 header file so I don't get any other suggestions from anywhere else?

For example, if I put all of the functions that I ever want to call, ever, in 1 header file, how can I tell VAX to only pull suggestions from that 1 file?

This is an uncommon request

One idea to do this is to rename this file to have a unique extension, for example .header, and then ask VA to ignore all conventional header files (.h):

I know this is a hack, but this is my idea. I haven't tried if it works or not.

Not a bad suggestion, I'll try that but I'd still like to see if there is a way to do only 1 header file if anyone else knows.

As accord wrote, this is a very uncommon request. One of the good things about VA is that it helps write/navigate code when the IDE solution/workspace isn't even in a compilable or linkable state; this request is a bit at odds with that character of VA. Are you working with a solution or standalone files?

I actually figured it out. So I went to the "Extensions to ignore:" and put in ".h;". It now only parses the .h file that I have in my project and ignores the standard stuff. Thanks for the help guys :)
