Hi, this bug remains[*] and a quick look at the C++ file I am editing shows that most of my methods have ended up with this sort of misfontification somewhere. Note that misfontification does not occur during initial fontification, only after editing (though not in a way I can replicate). I guess sometimes it thinks function calls are part of a declaration, though it doesn't necessarily happen when the preceding statement is a declaration. In one occurrence in my C++ file, the misfontification has occurred immediately after a for loop.
Again, I'm asking for help. I never got a response last time. What do I need to look at to see what is going on? [*] following my revision 1.18 date: 2006-11-15 16:31:03 fix in cc-fonts.el of another unrelated issue in CVS Emacs, Emacs CVS fontifies the below with font-lock-variable-name-face, rather than font-lock-function-name-face, which may/may not give a pointer to where the problem lies. > _____________________________________________ > From: Marshall, Simon > Sent: 07 September 2006 17:41 > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Cc: 'emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org' > Subject: Font-lock decides function call is function declaration in > C++ > > Intermittently, but for ages, Emacs CVS suddenly decides that C++ lines of > code of the form: > > foo(bar); > > Or: > > foo() = bar; > > Are function declarations, and puts font-lock-function-name-face on (in > these examples) "foo".
