Description Matthew Woehlke 2014-06-13 23:26:38 UTC 
Consider the following bit of code:
  auto* foo = new QWidget();

This is perfectly valid code, with 'foo' having the type 'QWdiget*'. Alas, KDevelop is very confused and thinks the type of 'foo' is 'int*'. If the '*' in the declaration is omitted (also legal, and does not change the type of 'foo'), KDevelop correctly deduces the type.

Reproducible: Always
