Should the code completion offer known generic types?

Here is a modest proposal.

I just did something like this:

   type
      MyClass = public class
        public
           method MyMethod;
           property MyDict : Dictionary<Guid,String>;
        end;

and then I did:

 method MyClass.MyMethod;
    begin
    MyDict := new Dictionary
    end;

When I finished typing the “Dictionary”, the auto completion prompted with “Dictionary<TKey,TValue>”. I wonder if it should offer “<Guid,String>” since it knows the type of MyDict?

Thanks, logged as bugs://72378

Yeah it does in most cases already, but apparently not here.

I take it you were able to reproduce it? And it wasn’t just something funny with my environment here?

Hope you saw my strings as I didn’t notice till now that the < and > strings got removed.

I didn’t get to try it yet, but i’ve seen something alike it myself so I’ve logged it.

Ok, thanks.
