Annoying auto-complete behavior #1951

Open disarray2077 opened 7 months ago

disarray2077 commented 7 months ago

Auto-complete has this annoying behavior that triggers an auto-complete while you're trying to write parameters in a lambda expression. This doesn't happen if you make it explicit that you want to create a delegate (e.g., by prepending scope or new), but in the case below, I want to make a method reference.

Yeah, that is annoying. I don't see a really good solution, though. At that point it looks like you're performing a cast...

I would say that you could disambiguate by providing a capture specifier like [](i) => instead of just the (i) => but capture specifiers don't currently parse on method references.
