type
String[] <CODE ASSIST>
you get a suggestion for a name (if you have prefix set to 'f' and suffix 
to '_')

fStrings_

note the 's' at the end
So something knows that plurals end with 's' - but it seems harcoded, and only 
works for english (in most cases). maybe sometimes for some other languages but 
not all the time and not all

What is the problem, and your suggestion ?
Comment 5 Adam Kiezun CLA 2003-04-03 05:33:25 EST 
the problem is that the 's' suffix is limited to only a small subset of all 
languages - for others it makes no sense

i don't know how to solve this nicely
this is a minor problem - feel free to close if you think this will not get 
fixed

We have indeed no plan to solve the grand picture problem, this is only a 
completion proposal, which can be ignored if user dislikes it.

Moreover, when mixing other languages, the end result must be quite confusing, 
since class libraries (at least) are english-based...
