[MonoDevelop] Code completion bug / nuisance

[Matt Calder]

   I am using MD 2.7.22, and see this behaviour with code completion.
If a method does not have its closing "}", code completion does not
work. So, in this code:

namespace TestMain
{
    public class Foo
    {
        public string Bar()
        {
            Regex rgx = new Regex("\\s*([^\\s]*)");

            // Typing rgx. at this point does *not* do code completion


Whereas, this:

namespace TestMain
{
    public class Foo
    {
        public string Bar()
        {
            Regex rgx = new Regex("\\s*([^\\s]*)");

            // Typing rgx. at this point does do code completion
        }


I am not sure if this is a bug or a consequence of the way in which
code completion gets done. It is a bother sometimes as there can be
several lines of separation between the point at which code completion
is sought and the point at which the closing brace should go. Perhaps
it is just me, but I stumble on this quite frequently, and I am left
with the overall impression that code completion in MD is spotty at
best (perhaps with this new insight into the circumstances that lead
to it not working, that impression will diminish). If this is a bug,
say so and I'll file it. If it is not, a brief explanation of why this
is or must be the case would be appreciated.
