Hi

I have this code:

				CATCH(CArchiveException, arEx)
				{
					if(arEx->m_cause != CArchiveException::endOfFile)
					{
						// problem reading in from log file into variables
						arEx->GetErrorMessage(szError, _MAX_PATH);
						AfxMessageBox(szError, MB_OK|MB_ICONERROR);

						bOK = FALSE;
					}
					bContinue = FALSE;
				}
				END_CATCH


The arEx->m_cause and all other bits inside show with the ~~~~ underneath. Why?

I am using the latest build.

If I had to guess, VAX would get confused by the CATCH-macro.
Did u try whether it works if u replace the CATHC-macro with a simple catch-statement like:
catch(CArchiveException arEx)
{
}
?

Hello!

Yes, changing to try/catch does work but it is not really a viable option for me to go and change all of the code though my project where this is affected.

I would appreciate VAX being adjusted to accomodate this fairly common coding practice. I continued to use the TRY/CATCH approach because you don't need to delete the exception.

Can you please provide the source for the MACRO "CATCH"?
As Luke1410 said, it is possibly caused by this macro. Once I have the macro, I can look into the problem.

Hello

This is standard C++ code:

TRY
{

}
CATCH(....)
{

}
END_CATCH

within the VC++ editor. You should already have this, no? It is nothing personally written.

Yes, sorry, I do have this macro

I am seeing the same effect here and put in a bug report for this:

case=47143

Now, I can offer 2 workarounds:
1. Turn off VA Options -> Advanced -> Refactoring -> Automatically highlight references to symbol under cursor
2. You don't need to turn off highlight refs. if you make this change:
Open VA's stdafx.h as described here:
http://docs.wholetomato.com?W302
then find CATCH macro and replace with this one:
#define CATCH(q, e) }q*e;{

Thanks. I have put that into my version of the stdafx.h file.

You might like to consider do the others too. I think:
