accord	Posted - May 10 2020 : 12:15:09 AM The red underlines come from intellisense, and you can control them via: Tools -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced -> Intellisense -> Disable Squiggles It seems that __attribute ((packed)) is a not part of standard C++. The code doesn't compile for me using VS2019, and Intellisense doesn't understand the code either. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find a workaround to make it work with Visual Assist, either.
codex	Posted - May 09 2020 : 4:57:35 PM In the code editor, when using the struct, the members in the bitfield struct (flag1, flag2, etc.) are underlined with the red squiggle, and reported as "Unrecognized symbol." on the hover-over tootip. Also, they do not appear in the member listbox, but "bitfield" does appear in the member listbox instead.
