How can I see the options with Intellisense?

Hello,

When I type this:

Catch ex As MySqlException
system.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex:

I expect the options after typing ex: (or ex.). But all I see is this:

: NoOptionsIntellisense.jpg (14.76 KiB) Viewed 294 times

(And nothing when I type ex.)

I double checked the editor settings but I am not sure what I should change to get options (like ex:InnerException for example).

HI Dick,

Can't reproduce this, it seems to work fine here. Are you using the latest X# release?
Also can you please make a quick experiment and change "MySqlException" to simple "Exception", does it work this way? Just to make sure that
it is not this specific exception type that causes the problem.

Hello Chris,

I have the latest X# version, now I participate in the beta tests.

Experiment succeeded: changing MySqlException to Exception gave me all the options again indeed.

But as MySqlException inherits from System.Runtime.InteropServices.ExternalException via System.Data.Common.DbException so shouldn't that suggest the same keywords?

Hi Dick,

Yes, it should work, so apparently this is a bug. I can see the problem now with some other exceptions, will open a ticket for Robert to llok into.
Thanks for reporting this!
