At least not due to this,

Well how would you describe the situation I posted? Looks like a nested foreach loop to me. Please edit the title to what you believe it should be called.

@hasen6 Could you provide a project example reproducing the error?

@hasen6 The exact project would be ideal. If not, would it be possible to activate the command palette (eg. ctrl+shift+p) and launch the Java: Open All Log Files command after you have reproduced the problem. I would post the .log file or at least any errors you see in there.

Snippet completions are one of the last collected so maybe something failed before and they never got collected ? Looking at https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse.jdt.ls/blob/dbd035c6aa036b6ee7dd7ea503de548f33fe641c/org.eclipse.jdt.ls.core/src/org/eclipse/jdt/ls/core/internal/handlers/CompletionHandler.java#L162-L175 nothing stands out as obvious since I wouldn't think this is a cancellation issue.

I can't share the project unfortunately since it's a large multiple file game engine. I've actually since changed that method and the error no longer reproduces anywhere in the new version of that method. However I have a backup of how the code was previously and the error reproduces just as before inside that code, it seems the circumstances have to be quite specific for the error to occur. It's not as simple as an 'if statement in a for loop', but I don't know how else to describe it. Unfortunately the log files have nothing. I don't think vscode considers it to be an error but it reproduces every time in those conditions, it's not something failing as a one off.

I'm trying to put together some kind of simple project that would reproduce the error.

This is weird too, it's successful if there's an error above it:

Fails:

Succeeds

I think the moment you're able to reproduce, check the .log file as I described above. If there's a stacktrace, then maybe we can address it without a code snippet, or even work backwards to figure out what kind of snippets trigger this.

Another possibility is that something in here is just failing : https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse.jdt.ls/blob/dbd035c6aa036b6ee7dd7ea503de548f33fe641c/org.eclipse.jdt.ls.core/src/org/eclipse/jdt/ls/core/internal/contentassist/SnippetCompletionProposal.java#L218-L239 .

I opened vscode in terminal with code --log trace and after typing sout and seeing the error, as far as I can see there was nothing written to the main.log, it's really just not seeing it as any kind of error. But I do have a minimal project where I can recreate the error every single time. Let me know where I can send that to.

Not sure if the main.log would show these errors. They would only be logged to the language server's logs (The .log file from Java : Open All Log Files command). The Language Server For Java tab within the Output View might also have any errors.

Are you able to attach the project to a comment (drag & drop into reply box) ?

Ok I thought you were referring to the main.log when you said .log file. Anyway you can check the project yourself, it will be simpler.

Ok I'll try, I thought it was only images that could be dropped but it looks like it's added. The project will show up with a lot of red underlined errors because everything is missing but I noticed it doesn't matter, you should be able to still run shortcut snippets like 'sout' for the System.out.println(); though. Check the TileDB.java file and type a snippet exactly where I was typing it in the screenshots.

Thanks for the project. I'm able to reproduce with a much simpler example now :

Test.java

package org.example;

public class Test {

	private boolean removed;

	public void test(Object input) {
		if (true) {
                        sout|
			((Test)input).removed = true;
		}
	}
}

The problem happens at https://github.com/eclipse/eclipse.jdt.ls/blob/dbd035c6aa036b6ee7dd7ea503de548f33fe641c/org.eclipse.jdt.ls.core/src/org/eclipse/jdt/ls/core/internal/contentassist/SnippetCompletionProposal.java#L231 . The tokenLocation is not recognized as a TL_STATEMENT_START (used to avoid suggesting snippets everywhere) but a TOKEN_KIND_UNKNOWN

Seems to me like a fix would belong in https://github.com/eclipse-jdt/eclipse.jdt.core/blob/fa7970e436a20d3526755326eafdb8bb6b8c6e01/org.eclipse.jdt.core/codeassist/org/eclipse/jdt/internal/codeassist/CompletionEngine.java#L1897
