[ BUILD # : 200910071536 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

See Screenshot.

There are places where the highlighting within a ruby method is
incorrectly applied.

The screenshot highlights 10 separate spots within one method where
the highlighter is incorrect.

Comment 3 Erno Mononen 2009-10-12 13:27:32 UTC 
Looks pretty bad. Apparently there are some structures in the method (or elsewhere in the file) that the parser can't 
handle well when it comes to source positions. I'll try to construct a minimal test case for this based on the 
screenshot.
Comment 4 Erno Mononen 2009-10-23 13:14:49 UTC 
Unfortunately I couldn't reproduce this based on the screenshot, I guess some context that is not visible in the 
screenshot triggers this. Do you think you could attach a sample file where this happens?
