Specifying a type when assigning a lambda (or lambda result when called in place) causes visual assist to incorrectly highlight the assignment variable.

In the following example lambda will be white not the VA Variable colour.

std::function<int()> lambda = []()
{
  return 10;
};

In the following example result will be white not the VA Variable colour.

int result = []()
{
  return 10;
}();

Note that swapping int or std::function<int()> for auto results in the correct colour.

I am seeing the same effect here with your first example, thank you for the clear description.

case=83470

I am guessing the auto version is working due to handling for auto, which would explain this pattern.

Sorry for the necropost, but this issue still exists on the latest version of VAX. Is it a limitation imposed by VisualStudio addon API or was it just lost deep in the backlog? =)
