My visual studio keeps saying Intellisense is not available for C/C++. Some Internet sources say that it even doesn't exist in VS2010.. There should be a possible workaround.. I have the Ultimate Edition with all options installed...

Just to clarify, are you asking about C++/CLI? If that's the case, you should specify that in your question, since there is some Intellisense support for unmanaged code. – jonsca Dec 22 '11 at 4:11
I need Intellisense for C++,managed code. But I think switching to VS2011 is the best answer they gave me... – Karel Dec 25 '11 at 15:29

Mostly taken from here but to summarize:

There is no intellisense for C/C++ in VS2010. If you want something like it, but not from Microsoft, you might want to try tools like VA Assist.

Thanks for your answer. I hope they'll bring it back in future releases.. – Karel Dec 22 '11 at 2:53
@Karel, It would be appreciated if you would mark this as the answer. – soandos Dec 22 '11 at 3:05
There is Intellisense for "regular" C and C++, in terms of the standard libraries and structs, etc. in the same file. It's C++/CLI which is not supported, so your answer is completely correct, I think the way the OP has asked the question might be confusing. – jonsca Dec 22 '11 at 3:49

@jonsca, I am not sure. I think he is bothered by the warning that VS keeps giving him and this is why. – soandos Dec 22 '11 at 4:09
Okay, you may be right about that. I have asked him for clarification. – jonsca Dec 22 '11 at 4:12
