Code editor: local using directive bug
Due the the EE code being all-inclusive, I try to put sections into namespaces in order to keep things clean. I found that when working with the 'using' directive in a local scope, the code editor doesn't know what to do with it. For instance:
Code:
namespace A{
class j
{
foo();
}
}
void bar() {
using namespace A;
j *J = new j(); // Works, but j does not turn blue as expected
J.foo(); // This throws a compiler error
J->foo(); // This compiles, but the editor does not give a pulldown
// list as would be expected
}
It looks like the code editor doesn't turn the code into proper C++ because it doesn't know what's going on with the local "using" directive.

Hi, "using" keyword is not yet supported and is on the roadmap.
You can use namespaces, but just access classes via full path "namespace.class"

RE: Code editor: local using directive bug
Ah, I see. I had one particular section where it got pretty ridiculous with all the namespace prefixes, and adding the "using" cleared a lot of clutter. It still compiles, if one uses proper C++, it just limits the fanciness of the code editor. It's not a big deal for that single function, so I'll keep the readability over the IntelliSense-style(EsenthelSense?) menu.
I'm looking forward to new updates.
