Thanks Paul.
Or have I misunderstood? Are you saying that Intellisense stops working altogether when you use filesystem::path, and then refuses to work on any other code that you type in?
Yes, that's correct. Anything before the line of code, in the original
post, works (i.e. if I do std::[intellisense works]) but after (i.e.
std::[no intellisense]) and it doesn't.
Also, I didn't mean to imply this is a boost issue, it certainly isn't. But
was wondering if other folks have the same issue(s) or know a workaround.
Thanks again,
Graham

This is probably a little out of scope but I am hoping that someone has gotten this to work.
A code line like this:
boost::filesystem::path working_path_a( boost::filesystem::current_path() );
...causes vstudio 2005 intellisense to stop working. It says this 'No additional Information Available' at the bottom.
Anything before that line and intellisense works fine and anything after it doesn't.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. As a relatively new user to boost having this feature really helps out.
Thanks, Graham
Intellisense is a misnomer (/pace/ Bill Gates) in my opinion, as it is not intelligent and sometimes makes no sense. I find that it fails to find members of elements of an array of class instantiations. For example:
class MyClass { public: //for the sake of example int member; };
MyClass x; MyClass y[10];
x.member = 1; y[0].member = 2;
Typing the dot after the x will suggest "member", but Intellisense fails to do so when you type "y[0].", I seem to recall.
So I'm sorry to say that I think this might be an Intellisense issue rather than a Boost one. I hope someone can say otherwise, but sometimes Intellisense isn't up to the job and you have to type things out by hand.
