[ BUILD # : RC-1 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ] When I am typing, if the code hint window pops up and I am typing faster than the code hint window can lookup hints, the code that is placed into my file is the code that is at the top of the hint window and not the method I am selecting. Typically this only happens on the first code hint during the editing session. Once the first code hint has come and gone, the background load of any support information has been completed and lookups are much faster.
what is code hint window? Do you mean code completion (example - http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/resource/PHPDoc.png)
Also, what type of source file are you editing - Java?
Yes it is the code completion window. It doesn't matter what type of file I'm editing. The problem I encounter is happening with Ruby on Rails and Java files. It appears that the first time I bring up the Code Completion window, if I type faster than the IDE can load the full index for the code completion window, then the code completion window doesn't do any resolution on my keystrokes to narrow the number of possible solutions so the first time I bring up the Code Completion window, regardless of what I'm typing, the first item in the code completion window is what is put in my file.
Eric answered your questions thus removing INCOMPLETE keyword. Dusane, any other comments? Thanks!
I have tried a couple of times to reproduce the described behavior in Java editor - however - without any success. Could you please provide me with exact steps to reproduce (simple test file together with exact sequence of keystrokes that leads to the wrong code completion)? Thanks.
I'm also unable to reproduce, closing as worksforme. esmithbss do you press Enter at certain point when the completion is opened?
