Duplicated parts of namespace or class names in ToolTip in v5.0.7

markhurd

I've overridden my 5.0.6 so I don't know this is new to this build, but I think I would have noticed.

I don't yet have the exact scenario, but I see it in C# with just

"Test".Dump();

Hovering over Dump shows "(extension) string LINQPad.LINQPad.Extensions.Dump()" on the first line of the tooltip.

In VB.NET:

My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath.Dump

Hovering over Application and Info show duplicate parts in the "As clause" and Dump shows the same duplication as in C#.

BTW, in VB.NET Subs are currently shown with "As Void". Again I think I would have noticed this if it was in previous builds, but it is less likely I would have hovered to try it.

Thanks - I've fixed this for C# in 5.0.8 and a VB fix is on the way.

As I see it, it is not completely fixed in C# for 5.0.8:

var q=Util.CurrentQuery;

Util.CompileAsync(null);

Util.GetWebProxy();

These all duplicate something still.

This seems to be fixed for both VB and C# in 5.0.9.

This is working almost too well :-) Can there be (or is there) some way of finding out what Namespace a type displayed in at tooltip is in? The current display is definitely best when you know where the types are from, but quite frustrating when you don't :-(

Something as "simple" as showing the full Namespace "path" for all types in tooltips when Ctrl and Shift are down would do for me.


And a related question: Is it documented anywhere what the default Namespace Imports are?

From my own testing they seem to be:

LINQPad
System
System.Collections
System.Collections.Generic
System.Data
System.Data.Linq
System.Data.Linq.SqlClient
System.Data.SqlClient
System.Diagnostics
System.IO
System.Linq
System.Linq.Expressions
System.Reflection
System.Text
System.Text.RegularExpressions
System.Threading
System.Transactions
System.Xml
System.Xml.Linq
System.Xml.XPath
