Bug 26547 Automatic closing of strings is not smart enough
Reported: 2002-11-16 14:12:27 | Status: resolved fixed

Trying to add strings around an existing identifier is highly annoying when the Automatically close Strings option is set. For example, when I try to add Strings around: System.out.println(a) before a then I get two quotes. I suggest the rule to not close a string when there is a letter that belongs to an identifier to the left or right.
