Re: [cdt-dev] No autocomplete on constructors

If works if you type the opening parenthesis of the constructor invocation:

Test t( /* invoke completion here */

If you haven't typed the parenthesis yet, CDT thinks you're still typing the variable name, and offers you completions for that.

I believe this works as designed.
