Comment blocks are doing autocompletion and they shouldn't at least not in this context.

[Mike Wannamaker]

Within a comment block either // or / / or /* / the apex editor is doing autocompletion. Every key type tries to complete. See screenshot for example of entering the '.'

Fix submitted and will be included in the next build. It will now work like Java (ignoring JavaDoc) where no completions are offered in comments. Once I integrate ApexDoc obviously completions will be offered as appropriate for that type of extended markup.

Thanks Scott, I tend to write a lot of class documentation so this one is very frustrating, so I appreciate the fix.

[Scott Wells]

FYI, I did the same type of completion suppression from inside of string literals.
