Default behavior of sp-forward-slurp-sexp and related functions in C-like modes is wrong, at least unless you apply special configuration to fix it. In comparison, everything works correctly out-of-the-box if you open a JavaScript file, despite JS having a pretty C-like or Java-like syntax.
Steps to reproduce the problem
Open a file with text
foo.bar (42);
in a C-like mode (extensions .c, .cpp, .java and likely others associated with C-like modes).
Type ( then M-x sp-forward-slurp-sexp RET several times (or whatever keybinding you use for that).
Expected behavior
After (:
()foo.bar (42);
After consecutive slurping:
(foo).bar (42);
(foo.bar) (42);
(foo.bar (42));
Actual behavior
()foo.bar (42); // As expected
(foo.)bar (42); // Wrong
(foo.bar) (42); // As expected
(foo.bar (42);) // Wrong
