+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #15631 +++

When editing the name of a method in java, a pause in typing results in the 
selection of the method name. This is problematic for slow typers as they end 
up typing over what they just entered.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
As you can guess this happens again in Eclipse 3.2
The build is 3.2.0v20060609m .
The bug behavior is the same as in the bug i have cloned ,the reproduce
steps the same.

Cannot reproduce using Eclipse SDK R3.2 and latest 3.3 build. 
- try with fresh Eclipse SDK (no additional plug-ins and fresh workspace)
- try with fresh Eclipse SDK and your workspace

Does it still happen? If so, please provide more detailed steps (with an example or even better attach a workspace that allows to reproduce the problem).

Do you maybe confuse the occurrence highlighting with the selection?

Daniel ,you are right.
The problem was not in the eclipse,to be precise not the eclipse3.2:
I have befor used the 3.0.1 version after upgrading i have just used
the old workspace and opened the old projects - that was the problem.
After i have created new fresh workspace and cp the .plugins directory
to the old .metadata (except for org.eclipse.core.resources) all worked
out.
Documenting all this in case somebody will need this.
Thanks
