Visual studio not help me in a wrong for loop

Haviv Elbsz 2,091

Hello all. in a for loop I was upset about my app logic a long time until I noticed that I did a mistake in the index of the for loop as follows. for (i=0; i < 12; m++) because of a copy paste I missed change m to i and I was frustrated a long time. Why visual studio not help me in this simple mistake. Thank you very much.

I think that this is not a mistake in some programs. The compiler probably thinks so too.

Yes. it's probably possible. but a warning in this case can help in case someone make this in a mistake. Thank you.

Hi Haviv Elbsz,

If you turn on intellisence, Visual Studio will remind you that there are errors in the code. But it will not prompt for logical errors, which requires you to discover and modify it yourself.

About intellisence you could refer to this document.

Hi YujianYao and thank you. my intellisence is on and I don't noticed if it's show something. I think a warning should do and that is nothing for Microsoft to add. Thank you.
