Description Jesse Glick 2012-02-28 23:27:31 UTC 
In today's dev build, in a Java source file if you type '[' on the keyboard, '()' is inserted instead, as if you had typed '('. This makes it hard to enter '[' - e.g. to make an array!

Another problem is that typing either of these keys inserts a matching end brace even inside a string or comment, which it should not.

Workaround is to uncheck "Insert Closing Brackets Automatically" in Options > Editor > Code Completion.

Regressed between b815f0d49896 and 140a52c803fa, so I guess caused by e9a6ebb16ec5.
