weird word jumping behavior [message #169955] Sun, 25 July 2004 17:49 Go to next message

The ctrl + left or ctrl+right jumps words in a very strange manner. I am
using 200407240010 build, eclipse gtk binding on linux with Xorg-x11.

As an example, in the following line

int value = ((Integer)classFreq.get(cls)).intValue();

If I place the carent before i of the int, and hit ctrl+right it lands
between (( and Integer). If I place the caret right before v of value, and
press ctrl+right, it lands between ) and classFreq. It seems as if it jumps
over two words.

In the preference java->Editor->Navigation, I have "Smart Caret positioning
on java names" *unchecked*. If I check that, in the first example the
carets lands right before the = sign, and in the second case right before
((Integer).

Whats up with this crazy behavior, it used to be sane!

Any help? Thanks,

PS:I have checked on a plane text editor that I am not sending two left or
two right keystrokes by hitting the arrow keys once.
