When I use some classes in boost, I have experienced my Visual C++ 2005 IntelliSense stops working. For example, the following code makes IntelliSense crushed. ----------------- cut here --------------------- #include <iostream> #include <boost/filesystem/path.hpp> int main(int argv, char** argv) { ..... std:: <==========IntelliSense works boost::filesystem::path p; p. <==========IntelliSense doesn't work std:: <==========IntelliSense doesn't work ---------------- cut here ----------------------- I have examined codes which cause IntelliSense crush and have noticed that `an inner class (a class in other class)' confuses IntelliSense. In the case of boost::filesystem::path, class boost::filesystem::basic_path::iterator is the cause. When I moved the definition of `class iterator' out of `class basic_path', IntelliSense works. While typing the code above, InteliSense works. ----------------- cut here ------------------ boost::filesystem::path p("xyz/a.txt"); boost::filesystem::path::iterator i; i = p.begin(); std::cout << p.string() << std::endl; std::cout << *i << std::endl; ++i; std::cout << *i << std::endl; ----------------- cut here ----------------- I wonder that which is appropriate to post this message for developer's list or user's list. I found some messages in user's list but I couldn't find workaround. So I decided to post it to this list. I also know that this post is annoying for non Visual C++ users. So I apologise in advance. --------- Takashi SASAKI tsasaki99@yahoo.co.jp sasaki@cite.ehime-u.ac.jp http://www.windy.cx/ -------------------------------------- Easy + Joy + Powerful = Yahoo!
