I am running into issues when running the beautifier with VC++ code, any time the type of the first parameter is marked with a circumflex (^), i.e:
void foo( int^ i, int j)
{
if(...)
{
}
}
But if I remove the circumflex, it will format everything as expected:
void foo( int i, int j)
{
if(...)
{
}
}
I have looked through all of the configuration options available for my beautify profile, but have not been able to correct this. Anyone have any ideas on how I can rectify this?

Does that have some esoteric meaning that I'm not aware of? Or is it a syntax error?
If it's a syntax error, this is what they told me recently: https://community.slickedit.com/index.php/topic,13856.msg54387.html (https://community.slickedit.com/index.php/topic,13856.msg54387.html)

The C++ beautifier doesn't support the C++/CLI or "Managed Extensions for C++" syntax, there hasn't been a lot of demand for it. There is an existing feature request I can add a reference to this post as another vote for it though.

Gotcha, I was guessing it had to do with the lack of support with C++/CLI. Was hoping there would be some non-obvious beautifier configuration I could use to prevent the odd formatting from occurring.

I don't think there's a way to cheese it through for this case.
And this is just for the beautifier - the tagging supports the CLI syntax, so completions and the like should still work.
