Hi all,

My IntelliSense in VS2005 hasn't been working with WTL 8 classes.

The project compiles fine but whenever I type SomeWTLClass. or
SomeWTLClass-> it does not work.

The status bar changes to:
IntelliSense: 'Type of expression to the left of . or -> is not class,
struct, or union' (see 'Troubleshooting Intellisense in C++ Projects'
for further help).


What to do?

Thanks!

There's no such thing as "IntelliSense", or "VS2005", or "WTL 8 classes" in
the C++ programming language.

You need to ask your question on a more appropriate microsoft.* newsgroup,
where there's a better chance someone will be able to help you.

Go to a more appropriate microsoft.* group.

The C++ language does not define "IntelliSense", it is part of your
IDE, nothing to do with the language.

Try Microsoft's MSDN web site or one of the microsoft.public.* groups
that deals with their IDEs.

Makes sense. Thanks!

After pondering your question for several sleepless nights I think that
reading "Troubleshooting Intellisense in C++ Projects" would be a good
place to start isn't it???
