The visual assist is exhibiting very poor intellisense behaviour when typing things inside boost testing macros. Can this be improved? Is it recognized as bug?

This is especially bad with template classes.

E.g. in:

#define BOOST_TEST_NO_LIB
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE(cppUtilsArrayTest)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(basicArrayFunctionalityTest) {
// Here the Visual Assist will have problems - especially talking about template classes

}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()

Sorry for this. Can you please try turning on deep macro parsing in VA, as explained by this FAQ entry:

http://docs.wholetomato.com?W363

Some other users have reported problems with boost testing macros, and that deep macro parsing helps, so hopefully this will help you as well.

Thanks, that's helping. Why is it not turned on by default?
