Intellisense Problem
Dec 7th, 2012 at 5:32pm
Print Post  
Hello, first of all I would like to thank you for the useful tool.

Downloaded yesterday, no problem for the installation and it works fine with VS 2010 (editing and compiling).

Unfortunately the Intellisense is not working at all. I've check some setting reading other posts but without success.

Intellisense is working fine with VB or C# projects.

How I can solve this problem?

If you installed vs after the plugin then rerun the install of the plugin

Hello, thanks for the answer. Unfortunaltely after the plugin removal and reinstall, the Intellisense is still not working.

After the reinstallation, I've recofigured the arduino executable path in the Tool\Options (as explained by the tutorial).

New Arduino project creation seem to be OK. VS at the bottom report "Intellisense on board 'Arduino MEGA 2560 or MEGA ADK' using COM1"

Notes: Isn't possible to load images on the forum?

It's best to email images or add a link to a skydrive or google doc.

I guess you can see a list of boards so what happens if you switch to another board and back again?

You can also email a picture to info [at] visualmicro.com

I have switched on your email notifications in your User CP>Options. 

Other users please read the message at the top of each board that explains how to switch on email notifications

After this operation it seems to work fine. I've send you some print screen.

Thanks a lot for the support

Great. Info for others...

There are certain events that auto refresh the arduino intellisense in vs. Opening or creating a sketch is one of those events but it appeared to fail in this case in 2012 (so I'll look into it). 

Other events that cause the same refresh are:- changing board, adding/removing a library, adding functions to an .ino. The latter two require the .ino to be saved.

Is there a way of getting the intellisense to always pop up,  without having to press ctrl + J?

it does on visual studio 2012 but not 2010.  the only reason i went back to 2010 is i couldn't find some settings  like the option to set the debugging to full in 2012

Hi, 2010 doesn't do that but you are right that it is improved in 2012. The project properties are the same in both. Select the project in the solution explorer and press F4 or from the "View" menu at the top of the VS ui.
