"Mouse Over" hints contain badly formated data.

If I do a mouse over a type "Fred" declared in package com.abc.xyz, I sometimes get a little pop up showing the full type name formated as

"com#9.abc#17835.xyz#17857.Fred#908071"

When this situation occurs, such name garbling occurs on all variables, types or package portions on which I position the cursor in the current file or other files open in other tabs.

Information communicated to the programmers should never contain internal markers such as "#17835".

Oh man, not again. I thought this problem did disappear. I can't remember what the conclusion was the last time we saw that one. @idragos @misto Was this not a problem in scala-refactoring?

Are you using some debug compiler flags, like `-uniqid`? Those number are unique symbol IDs, used when debugging the compiler itself.

@team

I did a grep of "uniqid" in my project git source folder as well as in the associated Eclipse workspace folder.

There is a match found in a hidden file in the Eclipse workspace folder.

I do not know what is this file.

~> $ grep -ir uniqid ~/Documents/Projects/ActorDemo
~> $ grep -ir uniqid ~/workspaces/ActorDemo/
Binary file /home/dev/workspaces/ActorDemo/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.jdt.core/3420493137.index matches
~> $

Note also that "uniqid" is not found in the Eclipse program folder.

~> $ grep -ir uniqid ~/Programs/scala-ide-4.3.0/
~> $

Any compiler plugins or macros that you're using? Can you share your project?

Hello. I do not use plugins or macros. I could givbe you a remote access to my project but it would be difficult for me to give you direct access to the source code. Thank you. JL

PS: I am now using 4.4.0 nightly builds. The issue I described in this ticket happened again this morning with 4.4.0.
