Closing brackets for autocomplete

I agree, more of a nuisance, I think there should be a check for a () following immediately after the insert point, and not add them if they're there. You should file a request for that. I think that's a bug really.

Hello,

You can get your intended behaviour if you use Tab instead of Enter to accept the item in the auto-complete list.

For example, if you have:

logger.|debug(message);

And the caret is after the . as shown, and you pressed Ctrl+Space, and you selected warn, Press Tab instead of Enter to get :

logger.warn(message);

Hope this helps,
Best Regards,
Mohamed.

Can anyone explain to me the reason for the following behaviour:

autocompletion

inserts both opening and closing brackets as well as a semi-colon (the

will be positioned inside the brackets or right after them, depending on
whether a method requires parameters or not)."

The reason is inserting ';' in case of void method (I guess it's obvious how
this depends on voidness).

parentheses. Anyway, I do not quite like it. In particular, if I have

totally

out of line.

Just use Tab instead of Enter when choosing from the lookup list. This issue
does not depend on method voidness.

I cannot see how void-ness of the method can affect the usage of the
parentheses. Anyway, I do not quite like it. In particular, if I have
