Description Ingo Rau

Build Identifier: 20110916-0149

When using a variable that was globally defined in another file (on the project's source path), its (inferred) type is lost when is was initialized by a function call.

File 1 (snippet, cf. attached bug-1.js):
var obj1 = new Class();
var obj2 = returnsClass(); // just returns a new Class() instance

File 2 (snippet, cf. attached bug-2.js):
obj1.op(); // <== Content assist works, help works
obj2.op(); // <== NO CONTENT ASSIST, NO HELP



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open attached files in Eclipse
2.Hover mouse over line "obj2.op()"
3.Additionally, enter "obj2." and hit Ctrl-Space
