I seem to have stumbled upon a parsing issue in VAX 2094 and VS2015 with the following code:
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
char numbers = {0, 1, 2, 3};
for(auto&& number : numbers)
{
}
}
As you can see in the image, the variable 'number' isn't getting highlighted. It's white instead of the silver color that the other variables have. If I switch out the list to be a list of structs with members, I don't get any dot-completion suggestions either, leading me to believe it's more than just a highlighting issue.
I should probably note that I'm running VS2015 with "Disable Database" set to "True" in "Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced", meaning I don't have any sort of IntelliSense (or semantic colorization), but am instead solely relying on VAX. I should maybe also note that I have VAX set to "Source of C/C++ content: Visual Assist".
Thank you for an otherwise amazing product! |

I don't recognise the syntax you are using here, always something new to learn. So the first thing I did was add this function to an existing VS2015 Update 2 C++ project, but it does not compile.
I then added it to a new C++ console project, and it still does not compile. I am getting the error message:
too many initializer values
on your
char numbers = {0, 1, 2, 3};
line. I am also getting an error on the for loop. Should this code actually compile, if so, what do I need to do to make this happen? |

Well, that's embarrassing. I was a bit too quick to type this up, so I didn't even bother compiling it. The code should of course be:
int main()
{
char numbers[] = {0, 1, 2, 3};
for(auto&& number : numbers)
{
}
}
But as you can see - the problem remains. The real issue seems to be the usage of the auto rvalue reference syntax. If I change the for-loop type to be char, everything of course parses just fine, and same if I just do an auto lvalue reference, or straight-up auto for that matter.
And again, this is only when disabling semantic colorization in the Visual Studio options (which gets disabled automatically when disabling IntelliSense altogether). |

Ah, that makes a lot more sense. The for loop syntax is interesting, and a lot more compact. I did wonder what was happening for the char variable, now I see.
I am seeing the same problem here, thank you for the clear example:
case=96952
and I am also seeing the problem with the array of struct, instead of the array of char.
For now, turning the IDE intellisense database back on is the only work around I can suggest. Is there a particular reason you have turned this off? |
