My "as you type" help has disappeared!

Hello,

I don't know the correct term for it (tooltip?), but it's the nice feature
that, when you are writing source code, pops up a little explanation of the
syntax of the particular class/function you are typing so you can choose
from a list of overloads, etc. Anyway, for some reason it no longer works
on my system. Is there some VS2003 setting/preference/option that might
have gotten changed that turned it off?

Thanks,
Ray Mitchell

I think you are referring to Intellisense.

Fix any bugs, recompile all projects, and then stop and restart visual
studio.

I've lost it while changing the interface of a windows class library
project that I have temporarily included in my windows application
project (especially if the windows class library is being used by a
control in the toolbox -- if this is your case, be sure to recompile
the control that uses the library as well...and then restart visual
studio).

Hi I have read some mail on the dev mailing list about PEP 318 and find the new Syntax really ugly. def foo(x, y): pass I call this foo(1, 2), this isn't really intuitive to me! Also I don't like the brackets.

Is there an advantage to either of these methods, or is it simply a matter of style? I used to use the "as" method, but later gave it up for the "is" method as the intent of the code seems a little clearer to me. I now have some projects coming up where the baseTypeCollection will contain 5k to 10k objects that will have to be searched for various sub types of which I only expect to find ~50 to ~100 matches. Thanks! foreach (baseType...

Hi, I must design a method that receive a Control object and return a single value if it is a TextBox object, another value if it is a ComboBox object and so on. If I try a "if-else-if" loop, this will be very unhappy! Can I use a foreach to make that? How declare and create the array for use in the operator "is" (for test a Control, like "cont is TextBox")?

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

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
