intellisense in visual C++ .Net 2005

I am using visual C++ .NET 2005 for programming in C++. despite the
fact that my project contains a VC++ intellisense database,
intellisense does not work. What could go wrong. IN the same
framework, if I program in C# intellisense works just fine.
Thanks

Try closing the solution and deleting the .NCB file, then re-open the
solution (which will rebuild the .ncb file). That sometimes resolves
the situation.

Thanks, Dave, but it does not work.
Any other idea?

Dan,

Does the VC++ Intellisense work for you in a clean project (created
with the Wizard)?

Assuming it does (it should), check that your current project has all
the relevant source and header files added to the solution.

Does Intellisense not work in any of your source modules, or just some
(and maybe in some places)? If it's the latter, there may be some
lines of code that the Intellisense can't make sense of.

No, it does not work for a clean project either.
As I said, it works for C# but not for C++.
Can you try and see if it works in C++ for you?
Is it possible that it is not supposed top work for C++?
Then, what is the ncb file for?

Thanks

IntelliSense does NOT work in C++ and C++/CLI, and when it works, it works
very slowly.

If you program like me, IntelliSense is not a help for develop. I think and
build in my mind a block of code, then I write it at a typist speed, then
IntelliSense cannot react when I press -> and Ctrl-J because it is parsing
files. If you type objet, then waits some seconds, and then type ->(or just
..), *sometimes* it works. Sometimes IntelliSense is not capable to
understand some complex and hierarchical classes and sometimes it simply
does not work and, of course, it does not works at same speed as C#.

Dan,

As I said before, it should work. Have you disabled it? Check the
Tools, Options, C/C++, General, Statement completion settings. Have a
look at the MSDN topic titled "When IntelliSense Is Unavailable".
