Disable autocomplete on semicolon

[borbmizzet]

Is there some setting to disable intellisense autocomplete on pressing the semicolon key? It keeps autocompleting my keyword “default” with a preprocessor macro that starts with the word DEFAULT (even though I have preprocessor macros turned disabled on the suggestion list >_>)

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this, we have fixed it in this build: http://sysprogs.com/files/tmp/VisualGDB-5.2.14.1366.msi

I’m now running build 1374 (which I assume is a later build than 1366), and a similar problem is occurring with std::string turning into std::string_literals.

Edit: once I re-enabled typedefs in the intellisense popup, the problem was fixed. Still a bit annoying that it happens with typedefs disabled. I feel like it should realize that what I typed in was valid despite my intellisense settings and not tried to correct it.

Hi,

Yes, this is by design. If the typed text fully matches the selected suggestion, pressing ‘;’ would auto-complete that suggestion. We added a special exception for C/C++ keywords, but otherwise this behavior is still by design.
