unintended alias expansion
« on: July 06, 2009, 06:30:46 PM »
I'm using SE 14.0.1.2 and don't know if this issue was in previous versions of I have some setting enabled that causes the following behavior.

When I am editing inside a comment block (e.g. /*  */) and type the backslash, \, some alias or code expansion is triggered and the following syntax is placed after the end of the comment block:
/**
 * \<cursor here>
 *
 */

This makes it frustrating to try and go back and add some doxygen commands to my C code.  Any help or tips on how to fix this?

I was able to reproduce that problem in v14.0.1, but not in v14.0.2, which is planned to be released later this week. So, I think that has been corrected.

This sounds like this topic.

A hotfix was released about a month ago that fixed this.
Check to make sure you have the latest hotfix(es) installed.

The topic suggested by chrisant was the same problem I was having.  I downloaded the hotfix for SE2009 and the problem has now gone away. ;D

thanks,
Mike
