c++ - Visual Studio TODO / Task List not showing up

Question

Using Visual Studio 2010 Express

I have a task list open and on filter setting comments.

It does not show any inline

// TODO whatever

comments at all, whether project or file specific. Any idea why? Do I need to set the tokens manually or something?

Answer 1

According to this Connect issue, it's turned off by default for C++ for performance reasons.

To enable this feature go to Tools -> Options -> Text Editor -> C/C++ -> Formatting -> Miscellaneous, and set Enumerate Comment Tasks to True.
