Hi all,
I have a problem using code completion in MonoDevelop with Ubuntu 6.06.
This problem was also reported in August by two other Ubuntu users in
this thread:
http://lists.ximian.com/pipermail/monodevelop-list/2006-August/004407.html.
Someone suggested in the thread that a small error such as a missing ';'
might be the cause, but even something very simple will not work. For
example, creating a new Console project generates this code:
// project created on 12/09/2006 at 22:12
using System;
namespace Test
{
class MainClass
{
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
}
}
}
Typing 'Console.' or 'System.' or anything similar will not display the
code completion window. Typing 'using ' will display the code completion
window with Microsoft, System and Test but typing 'using Microsoft.',
'using System.', etc. will not work either. It also doesn't work in
other projects (e.g. typing 'Application.', 'app.', ...) in a new GTK#
project. It seems that it just won't work after typing a dot.
The 'code completion' checkbox in preferences is checked - I also tried
removing the CodeCompletion directory in ~/.config/MonoDevelop and the
~/.config/MonoDevelop directory itself, but that didn't make any
difference except for the .pidb files being rebuilt.
I tested this with both the 'old' MonoDevelop version in the Ubuntu repo
(0.10-0pre1ubuntu6) and the latest version, 1.1.17.1. It's possible that
this will be fixed with the upcoming Ubuntu Edgy release or with a 6.06
re-install, but I thought it may be important to mention :). Of course,
any suggestions or ideas to try out are more than welcome.
Regards,
Firebird.
