Description
It doesn't happen all the time - it seems to depend on how one interacts with the completion window. Steps to reproduce on Ubuntu 13.10 with gvim 7.4:
Put the following in .vimrc (and obviously do :BundleInstall if needed to install clang_complete):
set nocompatible
filetype off
set rtp+=~/.vim/bundle/vundle/
call vundle#rc()
Bundle 'gmarik/vundle'
Bundle 'Rip-Rip/clang_complete'
filetype plugin indent on
syntax enable
inoremap <C-Y> <C-O>dd
let g:clang_library_path = '/usr/lib/llvm-3.4/lib'
let g:clang_complete_auto = 0
Open a .cpp and insert the following text:
#include <iostream>
int main() {
std::cout.fl
Press <C-X><C-U>
to trigger completion. Do not do anything to select a match; simply keep typing some letters, then press Enter. Now press <C-Y>
: it will start copying characters from the previous line (the default i_CTRL-Y mapping) instead of deleting the current line (as specified by the .vimrc). Running inoremap <C-Y>
reports the following mappings:
i <C-Y> *@<SNR>19_HandlePossibleSelectionCtrlY()
i <C-Y> * <C-O>dd
On the other hand, if after pressing <C-X><C-U>
one presses <C-U>
again to select the first match, then enter to dismiss the popup, the expected behaviour is restored.
