                Posted - Dec 12 2011 : 2:47:46 PM  I am pretty much entirely C# at this point, is there a way for me to just have VA deal with C# files only. I don't need all the C++ stuff so much anymore. 
  Seems like it must slow they system down with all that C++ stuff? 
  Any suggestions? |

  VA Options -> Projects -> C/C++ Directories -> Platform = Custom
  and then delete all of the directories in the stable include directories list:
  http://www.wholetomato.com/products/features/directories.asp
  This should cut down on the parsing time, how much will depend on how many stable include directories you had to start with. |

                Posted - Dec 13 2011 : 3:50:23 PM  It should "go through all the Visual Studio directories" only once per project and later it should just load the symbol databases. Maybe, it was going to be a one-off problem. |

                Posted - Dec 13 2011 : 08:30:05 AM  I used the "extensions to ignore editor", if that's the answer then fine, but I would bet a lot of us have moved from C++ to C# and a single option might be a nice to have. It seems to have done what I expected.    
  It's not so much that I have a bunch of C++ projects, but it does go through all the Visual Studio directories. 
  Thanks for your prompt response. |

                Posted - Dec 12 2011 : 3:04:10 PM  I don't think C++ file should slow down the system. How many C++ file do you have in your project?
  You could ignore C++ files altogether by adding ".c;.cpp;.h" to the "extensions to ignore editor" editbox here: VA Options -> Projects -> File Handling -> Extensions to ignore
  But like I said, I shouldn't normally slow down the system. The initial parsing time can be a bit longer with lot of cpp files though. Let us know whether it helps. |
