Description Marian Mirilovic 2008-03-31 09:04:02 UTC 
NB 6.1
We are displaying hints for code in Guarder Sections - after applying suggestion -> error message is shown in Editor
status bar - it would be better to hide hints for code in guarded sections at all.
Comment 1 Vitezslav Stejskal 2008-04-02 09:04:52 UTC 
Yes, we should not. Users can't influence this code, so we should not bother them with warnings.
Comment 2 Max Sauer 2008-11-18 12:24:13 UTC 
Using current infrastructure, this is not an easy decision -- there are some types of hints, ie. introduce field, which make sense and work properly even 
when invoked from inside guarded block, and some users/developers using hints API will be unpleasantly surprised when this will stop working. In the time 
of the hint creation, the area which is affected (place in source, where changes will be made) is not yet decided, so it's currently impossible to suppress just 
hints which usage will result in the status bar message.

Lets plan to review/redesign the infrastructure LATER.
