Description _ gtzabari 2017-05-03 03:38:53 UTC

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201704270002)
Java: 1.8.0_131; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.131-b11
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_131-b11
System: Windows 10 version 10.0 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_CA (nb)
User directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Roaming\NetBeans\dev
Cache directory: C:\Users\Gili\AppData\Local\NetBeans\Cache\dev

1. Enter a new watch expression
2. Enter "Address." and trigger code-complete
3. Select "getById" method and hit ENTER
4. Expecting code-complete to fill the input field with:

   Address.getById(session, tablesToUpdate, id)

5. But instead, it fills the input field with:

Address.getById

(session

, tablesToUpdate

, id)

Please remove the unwanted newlines.

This used to work in past versions (8.1 for sure but I think 8.2 as well).
