How to rebuild VS2010 IDE Intellisense?

Question

some are working some are not working.

for example,

i did

using System.Web.Security;

MembershipUser myObject = Membership.GetUser();
        string UserID = myObject.ProviderUserKey.ToString();
        Response.Write(UserID);

the membershipuser is not highlighted in green. and System.Web. is not listing objects

but the code is working fine though. How do I make the intellisense work fine?

Answer 1

I'm using VS2010 and Project > Rescan Solution seems to do the trick, although it seems to take longer than normal. I suppose it's because it is rebuilding the entire cache, rather than selectively updating parts of it.

If you're using VsVim or other non-default keybinds, alt+P+S still does the trick.

Answer 2

Try resetting your Intellisense cache, Edit>Intellisense>Clear local cache.

Or try nuking it - delete your [SolutionName].sdf and .suo files

Edit:

VS 2010 equivalent is Project>Rescan Solution
