code completion not working in code-behind file

i am writing some simple web forms with VB.NET as the code-behind
language.

the code-behind files import a C# class library namespace from a .dll
which is in the references list.

however, when i instantiate one of the C# classes, i get no code
completion for the class members. can anyone tell me why that is?

thanks in advance,

jason

Perhaps you're using Notepad?

almost amusing, but no. i'm using Visual Studio .NET Professional
version 2003.

> almost amusing, but no.

Well, it does help to know! ;-)

In the Tools menu, under Options|TextEdi tor, open the Basic folder, and see
if "List Members" is turned on. If it is, do you get a drop-down list box of
members when you add a period after the class name? Have you tried pressing
CTRL-SPACE to auto-complete in the Code Editor?

thanks for the suggestions, but after a recompilation of the class
library, and copying it into the /bin directory of the .net web app,
the code completion is working just fine. not sure what got miswired in
the previous attempts, but it's working just fine now.

thanks again

Hi, Could you give your opinions on the best code completion in Python IDEs. My only complaint with PythonWin has been that the code completion support is incomplete. The interactive mode has better behavior than the editor. Tried to fix it but could not. Boa is not too different. At least when I last checked (a few months ago) Komodo and Visual Python were not very different either. Wing IDE seems converse. The editor auto list members...

Some people have suggested the desire for code completion and refined edit-time error detection are an indication of incompetence on the part of the programmer who wants such features. Unfortunately these ad hominem rhetorts are frequently introduced into purely technical discussions on the feasibility of supporting such functionality in C++. That usually serves to divert the discussion from the technical subject to a discussion of the...

Sometimes if I build the app I will get intellisense, undo, and code completion (automatic completion of if stataments etc), but after a few lines of code this stops. I lose any code completion I lose all automatic code indentation I loose intellisense If there are errors (squiqqly lines under the code) and I fix them, the blue squiggly line still appears until I rebuid. Rebuild fixes the formatting too.

Currently I write most of the code in Vim, mainly because I can write my code remotely using ssh, the problem is that I sometimes find myself lost in the code, and for this I need good code completion. I have tried Kdevelop and Anjuta (code completion didn't work in both of them at all). Currently trying Eclipse which works fine, but fails in advanced code completion (shows private members and doesn't understand inteligent pointers ). ...

I don't want to be so mean here, but how hard it could be be writing a freesoftware which would automatically/intelligently auto complete Python code? (I mean something that really does the job, like Microsoft's Visual Studio or Sun's NetBeans or something else, you name it, but just don't give me PyDev please...)

Hello, Ali I totally support you, neither I couldn't find any really working code completion for python in a free software, and it's really a mess, at least on Linux. On Windows, there is PyScripter (http://pyscripter.googlepages.com/), but it is based on Delphi, and as such it's not portable. But it's a free software (even if I couldn't find the sources, they say you can download them). It is said to be working on Linux via Wine, so if...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
