Hello! In my brand-new install of Visual Studio 2022 for C++, I can't seem to get enumeration values to work correctly. For example, in the past if I would write this:
eMyEnum myVal = ...
Triggering auto completion would give me a list of eMyEnum values ONLY, which makes sense.
However, with this new install, I get EVERYTHING as a suggestion, starting with #, #define, #if, #else... (and thousands of others).
I looked at my settings and they seem to be similar to my old install. I tried switching between IntelliSense and Visual Assist as the source of suggestions, but it seems to switch between 2 bad options.
There are a couple other places where this kind of lesser behavior is showing up.
I know VA is understanding SOMETHING, because "add missing cases" in a switch statement is working properly.
Thank you for any assistance! |

| Ok just as I wrote this and came back to my code, it started working! :O All in all, it would be great to know if this was caused by something in particular (which I possibly fixed in the settings but took some time to adjust?) |

Do you have:
VA Options -> Suggestions -> Include Smart Suggestions
On or Off? If this is Off I would try turning it On, since this is designed to help in cases like this:

It is also possible VA hadn't yet finished parsing everything, but if you had the IDE open long enough to see the problem, I would have expected parsing to have finished, unless you have a REALLY large solution, for example you are working with Unreal Engine. |
