#445 Code Completion - Autoselect single match

[david rankin]

Editor Settings > General Settings > [Editor settings]

With:

[x] Code completion
[x] Case sensitive
[X] Autoselect single match
Autolaunch after typing # letters [3]

In C attempting to type 'fprintf' when 'fpr' is reach the following incorrect completion is inserted:

fprintf(): int

It includes the ':' and 'int' (the type 'int' should not be inserted, and certainly not after the closing paren. Further, related to Bug #444, with Padding outside parenthesis selected a space should be inserted between fprintf and '()'.

Removing '[ ] Autoselect single match' and disabling Editor Settings > Code completion > [Code completion] [ ] Add parentheses after function name auto completion, then a 'fprintf' without any paren is properly inserted on manual completion.

I don't know why it would try and insert 'fprintf(): int' in the code with only single choice enabled, but that is certainly not expected.

Fixed in [r10957].

@Alpha: Have you talked with scintilla devs about this "Using stc->AutoCompSetChooseSingle() does not send wxEVT_SCI_AUTOCOMP_SELECTION"?

You guys rock! Rarely, is there such timely correction of bugs in any open-source project (I've been involved in many since 2001). That says a lot for CodeBlocks, and you all in particular. Good job (sorry for the noise, but it was warranted)
