does va rely on the internal vis studio intellisense?

if not, can vis studio intellisense be disabled, yet va intellisense continue to work?

reason for asking - vis studio 2010 intellisense creates sdf files along side the sln/solution. these files are anywhere from 50 to 200 megs. given a working machine with a couple hundred 75 mb files, that would be 15 gigs of space taken up by these bloat files - bloat because the vis studio intellisense is incomplete/no c++/clr support anyway.

VA does not rely on the IDE Intellisense, unless you turn on:

VA Options -> Advanced -> Listboxes -> Get content from default Intellisense

but in VS2010 VA does not do any underlining of mistyped symbols in C++ code. This underlining comes from the IDE its self, so if you disable the IDE's intellisense it will presumably stop this underlining from appearing.

It looks like the option you want is:

IDE tools menu -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Advanced -> Disable Database = True
