Description jamespb 2007-10-27 18:51:55 UTC 
module Alpha
  class Beta
    class Gamma
    end
    class Delta
    end
  end
end

def test_case_name
  assert_kind_of(Alpha::Beta::G)
end

If you hit ctrl-space after the G in Alpha::Beta::G, you get Gamma offered - that's correct.  But now hit escape, and
backspace to get just Alpha::Beta.  Hit ctrl-space.  Type '::G' and you get 'no suggestions' where it should offer 'Gamma'.

(I've been having problems with code completion on nested classes, this is the smallest repro case I could find.)

Comment 1 Torbjorn Norbye 2007-10-28 20:14:24 UTC 
The problem here was that for performance reasons I'm not showing classes as parameter suggestions inside method calls
(unless it's something like the include method, or, you've started typing an uppercase letter). However, this did not
handle the scenario where you've already entered a class name (Alpha::Beta::) but no part of the actual class name.

Fixed:
