IntelliSense in PlatformBuilder?


Hi folks,

here is an easy way to enable IntelliSense in PlatformBuilder for Windows Embedded Compact 7:

1.       Create or open an OSDesign
2.       In the Solution Explorer, right-click and select Show in Favorites for any component you want to add IntelliSense to (in this example I use _WINCEROOT\PUBLIC\COMMON\OAK\DRIVERS\USB\HCD\USB20\EHCIPDD)


3.       Note: if you add large components (i.e. a BSP) you will get the following warning


4.       Now the selected component(s) is/are shown in the Solution Explorer under Favorites


5.       Et violà you have successfully enabled IntelliSense


Have fun!
