Mouse-over gives wrong methods (but same method name) from other classes

[jenskirk]

Thank you very much for making this great software

I am new to Subline Text and I have one suggestion for now.

The mouse-over effect that shows definition + references when moving the mouse pointer over a function / method is great.

But when you have the same method name in different classes it shows them all under definition, so we must pay attention to which method is the right one.

Using Sublime Text for projects with many methods with the same name (like Get, Set, Delete, Update and so on) in different classes unfortunately makes the mouse-over useless because many/all methods are shown under definition (methods from “wrong” classes) .

Can this be improved so it also checks the class-value before suggesting the definition?

Please keep up the very good work

"Goto Definition" finds every matching instance in project

This is basically what the goto definition feature was designed to do. It doesn’t have any semantic knowledge of your code, it’s just indexing symbols. Basically like a much smarter ctags. Honestly, I find that simplicity to be extremely valuable, since semantic tooling often gets definition linkage wrong. It can be a little annoying for names that are used prolifically throughout the codebase, but in practice less than one would think.
