When editing the name of a method in java, a pause in typing results in the selection of the method name. This is problematic for slow typers as they end up typing over what they just entered.
This is consequence of reconcile every where. Dani can you pls make the initial analysis.
Build Id? There was a problem in 20020508 where the selection jumped to the class declaration or the beginning of the CU but I could not reproduce your scenario. Please provide a test case.
The build is I20020508. I can easily reproduce this by performing the following steps. 1. Open a java source file of a project I have loaded from dev.eclipse.org 2. In the editor, click inside a method name and type one (or more) character. 3. Wait a second or so and the method name becomes selected. This happens every time I do this.
Can you provide your backlink preferences. Is Java reconcile preference on or off?
And: which perspectives are open (and in the background). Which views are open?
The "Reconcile Java Views" preference was enabled but disabling it doesn't seem to have an effect. I didn't play around with my preferences so they are whatever the defaults are. My workspace is a few weeks old and has gone through a few builds. The perspectives I have open are Resources, Java Browsing and Debug. In my Java Browsing perspective I have the packages view from the Java perspective and the Console open as regular views and Junit, Search, Java Hierarchy, CVS Repositories, CVS Resource History, CVS Sync, Task and CVS Console as fast views.
ok. would you mind testing a new version of jdt.ui to see if the problem is fixed? I can provide you with the plug-in.
Yes, I would be willing to do that. You can either provide me with it or tell me which version/branch to load from dev.eclipse.org.
Is on its way via e-mail.
Fixed. Available in builds > 20020510
Verified.
