Is there a way to create Visual Assist specific preprocessor sections?

Question

I have some complicated preprocessor macros which use the N-arg trick to count arguments and generate specific sub macro depending on the __VA_ARG__ argument count. Visual Assist doesn't like that and it completely messes up the parsing and the error reports. I would like to know if any predefined macros (for example __VAX__ or __VISUAL_ASSIST__ ) are defined in case of Visual assist parsing to implement specific code for him. If not, do you know any other way to avoid visual assist parsing a section or a way to give it a specific version of a macro ?

Answer 1

You can give Visual Assist a specific version of a macro by creating a va_stdafx.h file. Inside this file place the simplified macro definitions you wish Visual Assist to see. Ensure the file ends with a blank line.
