New version of Management Studio (i.e. the one that ships with SQL Server 2008) finally has a Transact-SQL IntelliSense feature. However, out-of-the-box it only works with SQL Server 2008 instances. Is there some workaround for this? ...
The System.Windows.Threading.DispatcherObject class (which DependencyObject is based on) contains a useful function, called CheckAccess(), that determines whether or not the code is running on the UI thread. When I wanted to use it yesterday, I was puzzled to find out that Intellisense didn't show the function (nor VerifyAccess(), which...
Hi, does anyone know how to get intellisense to work reliably when working in C/C++ projects? It seems to work for about 1 in 10 files. Visual Studio 2005 seems to be a lot better than 2008. Edit: Whilst not necessarily a solution, the work-around provided here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/39474/how-to-get-intellisense-to-relia...
In my work environment, Visual Studio currently crashes every time I start our main project unless I delete the .suo (solution options) and .ncb (C++ Intellisense symbols) files. Obviously, I've found a workaround. Is there a more permanent solution than this? ...
I thought JQuery Intellisense was supposed to be improved with SP1. I even downloaded an annotated version of jquery 1.2.6, but intellisense will not work in a separate jscript file. I have the jquery library referenced first on my web page in the tag. Am I doing anything wrong? ...
I'm absolutely stunned by the fact that MS just couldn't get it right to navigate to the definition of a method, when you're combining C# and VB projects in one solution. If you're trying to navigate from VB to C#, it brings up the "Object Explorer", and if from C# to VB, it generates a metadata file. Honestly, what is so complicated a...
Hi Folks. I am having trouble with my Visual Studio 2005 IntelliSense for some time now. It used to work fine, but for some reason the 'Updating IntelliSense...' does no longer seem to be able to complete for the solution I'm working on currenly- it simply gets stuck somewhere at about 3-bars of progress and blocks one of my precious CP...
If I open a file in Design View (web form), I get intellisense for my display code, but not my script code.. If I open with source code editor I, occasionally, get intellisense within the script tags. Anyone know how to get intellisense working all of the time for all of my code? Been living with this one for a long time. ...
I'm creating a DSL with a template-like editor, much like the rule systems in Alice. Users will be able to select relationships from a list as well as the objects to apply the relation to. These two lists should be filtered based on the acceptable types -- for instance, if the relationship is "greater than" then the available objects m...
How Do I Get Eclipse Sytle Function Completions in Emacs for C, C++ and JAVA? I love the power of the Emacs text editor but the lack of an "intellisense" feature leaves me using Eclipse. ...
Is there a way to disable Intellisense in the XAML editor in Visual Studio 2008? It is often a big performance drain while typing, and sometimes I'll sit for ten or more seconds waiting while the list automatically popups up. It appears that in Options->Text Editors->XAML, the Intellisense section is section is unavailable (grayed out)....
When adding a DLL as a reference to an ASP.Net project, VS2008 adds several files to the bin directory. If the DLL is called foo.dll, VS2008 adds foo.dll.refresh, foo.pdb and foo.xml. I know what foo.dll is :-), why does VS2008 add the other three files? What do those three files do? Can I delete them? Do they need to be added in so...
I have a class holding complex scientific computations. It is set up to only allow a user to create a properly instantiated case. To properly test the code, however, requires setting internal state variables directly, since the reference documents supply this data in their test cases. Done improperly, however, it can invalidate the st...
I have an assembly containing very thorough XML-based documentation, which is used through Sandcastle to generate the help-files for the product. We also use the output XML files for providing proper Intellisense in Visual Studio when programmers use the assembly obviously. In order to do this, it seems we have do both supply the user w...
The code-complete feature in Visual Studio is very useful, and it still works for C# and C++ code - but no longer works for XAML (XML) editing. Is there a setting somewhere that can re-enable this? My co-workers still have it working. ...
I'm trying to get my Javascript documentation in order so that my comments can be used by Intellisense), for example displayResults = function(msg, filterParams) { /// <summary> /// Gathers inputs and refreshes the grid and map /// </summary> /// <param name="msg">JSON data returned by GetConcessions ajax call</param> ...
With the release of Visual Studio 2008, Microsoft implemented code-completion and IntelliSense support for JavaScript. Unfortunately the support for JavaScript is shady at best--one of the major hassles being that when referencing external JavaScript files, the developer has to open and close JavaScript files to force Visual Studio to u...
When i use any of the other strongly typed HTML helpers after typing for example Html.Actionlink<HomeController>(x=>x. This pops up intellisense on the methods that the HomeController class has. However for the example above, this does not happen. Only after inserting the link text (second parameter) and going back to the lambda expr...
I get the warning "childNodes is null or not an object' with different line numbers, depending on which version of the library I reference (I've tried about three different versions of 1.2.6). Consequently, I get jack for jQuery intellisense. I can hack this to get it to work, but I'd rather not as I don't understand the full implicati...
function Submit_click() { if (!bValidateFields()) return; } function bValidateFields() { /// <summary>Validation rules</summary> /// <returns>Boolean</returns> ... } So, when I type the call to my bValidateFields() function intellisence in Visual Studio doesn't show my comments. But according to this it should. Should it? ...
