auto-complete and :

[maurizio]

Hello
Is it possible auto-complete the word like test:nValue ?
If I write "tes" , auto-complete proposes "test"
When I write "test:nVa" auto-complete proposes "test" and not "test:nValue"

Regards Maurizio

If character : is specified in the syntax highlighting wordfile for your language as (word) delimiter character the answer is no (maybe except you create an auto-complete file with test:nValue).

Well, with active IntelliTips support it maybe works for *.cpp files, but I don't have experience with C++, only with C. You have not mentioned the main facts as recommended in my readme topic. So I guess, we can't help you further.

Thanks Mofi
I use Windows XP Prof, UEStudio 06.40a setting for Harbour (ex clipper).
I modify the delimiter in wordfile.txt and erase the character : but that doesn't work.

You are right and I was wrong. After playing a little it looks like for finding words for auto-completion in the current file the delimiters for syntax highlighting are not used. It looks like the delimiter characters for auto-completion are all characters which in normal text are used as word delimiters (space, tab, ...) or as punctuation marks like .,;:! and the quotes and math symbols.

I think you have to contact IDM support by email and ask if there is a possibility to specify the delimiters for auto-completion.
