VAX 1649, VS2008 SP1.

In MFC classes are often prefixed with a 'C', but the header-file is not:
// MyClass.h
class CMyClass {};

Quite often I copy the class name to make an #include:

Ctrl+V, Ctrl+left, #include "
yields
#include "CMyClass|" (CMyClass selected)

Q1: Why is the text selected?
Q2: Would it be possible for VAX to auto-remove the C-prefix?

First look for "CMyClass.h". If not found, look for "MyClass.h". If found, remove mistyped 'C'.

Shouldn't VAX work with the actual files where the symbol was defined and not just symbols name?

Correctness might be a theoretical concept but incorrectness has practical implications.

In VA 1727 just use the new refactoring command "Add Include", which adds the #include statement for you.

znakeeye I have no idea why CMyClass is selected, I have just tried the same steps here and it is not selected for me.

Yeah, will try the new feature as soon as my boss renews our licenses...

Regarding the selection of "CMyClass". Could it be this registry-setting where you tell VAX to select the first item in the dropdown?


|CMyClass
#include "CMyClass|"

The text gets selected :(. 100% reproducible.

A listbox should never be accepted without some form of interaction. You need to press some key or use the mouse to accept a listbox, or else you are using a modified VA Snippet for #include that is inserting the clipboard directly.
