I use KDevelop for plain C programming. When I change a function from: static void foo_bar (int a) { } to: static void foo_baz (int a) { } the auto-rename pops up offering to change all "foo_bar" calls to "foo_baz". But if I change it to: static void baz_foo_bar (int a) { } It offers me to change it to 'az_foo_bar' (note the missing initial b). No matter what the new "prefix" is, it always omits the first letter of the new name in the suggestion. Additionally, if I actually delete the first letter of the original function name the auto-rename stops reacting: I start deleting the 'o' before the underscore in "foo_bar", it offers to replace "foo_bar" for "fo_bar". After deleting the second 'o', it offers "f_bar". If I delete the 'f', it keeps suggesting "f_bar" and stops reacting to any changes (like writing "baz"). If I write something *before* having deleted the 'f', the auto-rename works fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Write a funcion and use it in my code. 2. Rename the funcion affecting the first letter (either deleting it or adding a prefix). Actual Results: 3. Auto rename suggest wrong new name or none at all. Expected Results: 3. Auto rename suggest new function name as happens when first letter is untouched.
I cannot reproduce any of these issues. Are these reproducible?
Yes, still happens 100% of the time with v 4.4.0
Created attachment 83964 [details] Notice that I changed data_callback to my_data_callback, but suggiestion offers "y_data_callback". Still happens 100% on kdevelop 4.5.2. This a different computer (still Arch Linux). Counting this, it's already 3 different computers where this happens.
While I don't get the described behavior, it definitely doesn't work as expected for me either - I simply don't get an assistant at all when I prepend something to the function identifier...
