Unable to determine the scope of the class #541
Description
I have 2 directories and each of them has a file which has the same name.
Now vscode-java is unable to differentiate between these two files.
Thus this has resulted into unavailability of autocomplete feature and the docstring of various functions and methods.
Environment
- Operating System: ElementaryOS x64
- JDK version: javac 1.8.0_171
- Visual Studio Code version: 1.23.1
- Java extension version: 0.25
Steps To Reproduce
- First compile the Hello.java file in folder1
- then open the folder2 and try to use any method from the class in the same directory
- Notice that autocomplete will provide wrong or maybe no hints at all as there is same java file in both directory i.e. Phone.java.
Current Result
Expected Result
Additional Informations
Is this because that vscode-java takes the entire scope in consideration means if one class has already been compiled then the methods and attributes of that class will be shown at other places too?

In the case of non-maven/gradle projects, all classes are added to a pseudo default java project in the backend. So identical files with the same namespace conflict with each other, there's no way to fix that on the vscode-java side.
On your side, you can start by at least using package names, to disambiguate the classes, i.e
package project1;in its header)package project2;in its header)rajkumarGosavi commentedon May 25, 2018
Yes, It surely does solve the problem. Thank you for your reply.
