CompilerIf causes problems with IDE struct parsing

Code: Select all
CompilerIf #PB_Processor_x64
Structure SomeStructA Align 4
CompilerElse
Structure SomeStructA
CompilerEndIf
a.i
b.i
c.i
EndStructure
Structure SomeStructB
d.SomeStructA
EndStructure
*This1.SomeStructA
*This2.SomeStructB
*This1\ <- autocomplete is wrong
*This2\ <- autocomplete is wrong
Yes, I can write the structure twice but this is code duplication and causes problems if I make a mistake and they go out of sync. Then if I look at it later I may not remember which is the most recent version.

The problem is most things after Structure become a field to the autocomplete, which is confused not finding a simple Structure EndStructure sequence.
Even doing this does not solve the problem
Code: Select all
CompilerIf #PB_Processor_x64
Macro AlignArch
Align 4
EndMacro
CompilerElse
Macro AlignArch
EndMacro
CompilerEndIf
Structure SomeStructA AlignArch
a.i
b.i
c.i
EndStructure
Structure SomeStructB
d.SomeStructA
EndStructure
*This1.SomeStructA
*This2.SomeStructB
Looks like it should be simple to understand, but now AlignArch becomes a field instead.
In the end the same thing reported here

Even assuming this specific case can be solved in some other way, in general when you start splitting multiline entities into conditional branches, autocomplete gives up.

The IDE can't resolve the CompilerIf (it's , so you will have to write it differently if you want the IDE to behave correctly.

Sorry, it's... Good? Bad? Tuesday? Raining? Almost time?
Wait, I know! It's in Russian and you can't pronounce it!
