Hello,
My project compiles everything well, there are red wavy lines in CString.
Why is that?
How do I delete 'IntelliSense features in C++' without deleting SVN Subversion? I can't just delete the .vs folder, then everything is gone.
What is the solution?

CString is ambiguous

You can go to SVN Subversion related forum for support. -

Since we have no idea what your code is doing its impossible to determine why IntelliSense is responding this way. If you provide more information about your code and its usage of CString it might be possible to eliminate this annoyance. Sometimes red squiggles can be eliminated by re-scanning the project.
Or, you could use the available options to "Disable Squiggles".

Thanks for the tip and hint. This has nothing to do with SVN Subversion. I just don't want everything to be gone. What could be the reason for the lines? IT doesn't have to be Intellisense, just a guess on my part.

2024-09-27T19:07:16.2433333+00:00 Wish I could help you but the above images don't give me any significant information. All they show is an incomplete code snippet with the red squiggle which we already know about.
If you shared enough code so that we could reproduce the red squiggle problem on our own systems we might have a chance of understanding the cause.

2024-09-28T07:53:15.56+00:00 Unfortunately I cannot provide the complete code. The project is compiled without errors.
Too bad, it could have been that there are maybe 3 or 5 ways to check. I used google to find the Intellisense.
I don't know whether IntelliSense is the cause. I'll leave the thread open, maybe some experts know something else. Thank you.

2024-09-30T01:53:04.4833333+00:00 It looks like you are using VS2010, which is outdated. We cannot test whether the IntelliSense of VS 2010 works properly. The bug may have been fixed in subsequent versions. Please consider using VS2022.

I can't send the entire project. Yes, I use VS2019 and compile with VS2010, otherwise it won't work.
Its definitely IntelliSense.
The easiest way would be to delete the Intellisense cache. Where could this be done?

Unless you disable IntelliSense it will just rebuild it.
