Showing structure elements while editing code

Vishi Anand — Mon, 15 Dec 2003 22:07:04 GMT

If you noticed CVI7.0 has this feature where it will show structure
elements when you press a . or -> after the strcuture name or pointer to
structure, respectively. I think it is called "Completion" of some sort.

Anyways, it works for cases where I have 1 structure but not when I have
array of structures. Here is an example.

typedef struct __EMP
{
char Name[20];
int Age;
} EMP;

Now if I have

EMP me;

and when I type me. all structure elemets show up. But if I have:

EMP BunchOfEmps[10];

and try BunchOfEmp[0]. I don't see elements of EMP structure. If I type:

BunchOfEmp. here CVI shows elements of EMP structure.

Vishi,

Thanks for reporting this issue; I'll make sure our R&D engineers know about this seemingly buggy behavior.
