Description Jiri Prox 2007-05-29 14:17:52 UTC
NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 070529)
1.6.0_02-ea; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0_02-ea-b02
Linux version 2.6.5-1.358 running on i386
en_US (nb); UTF-8

Assign result to variable hint is not provided everytime when it should. It
looks like the editor need to be refreshed when caret is located over the method
call which result should be stored, otherwise the hint is not shown

Steps to reproduce:
1) switch Assign hint to be shown as error
2) create method "public int getNumber(){return 1;}"
3) call it within other method
-> no hint suggested 
4) close/ reopen file
-> still no hint suggested
5) put caret over method call
6) switch to another tab and back
-> hint is available

The Assign... hint probably does not understand this setting correctly. Not a very critical issue, as almost noone will
do this, IMO.

later.
