Description RusselWinder 2012-10-29 06:49:16 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 Beta (Build 201210011125)
Operating System = Linux version 3.5-trunk-amd64 running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0-ea
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.0-b02

I am using / as a numeric divide operator in a Groovy code but the editor colourizes (or sometimes colorizes) the code as though it was a string opening. It treats all characters including end-of-lines as part of the string up to the next /, which is my code is the beginning of a one-line comment.

Comment 2 Martin Janicek 2012-10-29 15:05:03 UTC 
Thanks for the report. Simplest case to reproduce is:

int x = 15/5
int y = 10/2

..everything between those two delimiters is incorrectly colored.
Comment 3 Martin Janicek 2012-10-29 15:07:49 UTC 
One more note: After pasting the code from comment 2 to the groovy script, the coloring is fine. But after adding one space between "/" and "5", the coloring gets wrong.
