Configuring selection of text with double click [message #831108]

Hi guys,

First, thanks a lot for the plugin. It's very useful to develop with Corona sdk even if I can't get all the features working on my mac.

The most irritating problem I have is with text selection. Often, I have a line like:

myObject:MyMethod(param)

and I'd like to be able to double click on the 'myObject' to select it for doing a copy->paste operation. Currently, it will select the whole 'myObject:MyMethod' section.

The solution seems relatively easy to implement :

Thanks and keep on your good work!

Hi Simon,

First of all, thanks so much for the kind words!

Actually, we are aware of this bug (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=363501) for which a contribution has been proposed.
It is currently being reviewed by Eclipse Foundation legal team, and as soon as they'll give us a go we'll be able to check that in into the source code repository. It is only a matter of days before we should have this approval, so stay tuned!

Should you have any concerns, feature requests, ... please tell us!

Cheers,
Benjamin

Can you maybe elaborate a bit about it?
I've personally been playing with Corona SDK lately and I've been e.g. debugging Corona apps seamlessly!

BTW, you might wanna have a look at http://lua-list.2524044.n2.nabble.com/ANN-Koneki-LDT-smart-content-assist-available-in-beta-td7287990.html by the way (content-assist for, among others, Corona!)

We are having troubles with Code assistance and Goto definition.

Regarding Code assistance, when we hit Ctrl-Space, we get a window but it is not contextual.

Regarding Goto definition, it simply never works Sad

My version of koneki is:
0.8.0.201203131626

My version of eclipse is:
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
Version: Indigo Service Release 2
Build id: 20120216-1857

Mac OS X Version 10.6.8

Hi Simon,
The bugfix has been committed ; I guess you should update your install to get it! Smile
