Description Martin Javorek

When doubleclicking in Java editor on word like "blah_blah", whole "blah_blah" 
is selected. When do the same action in Console view, only "blah" is selected - 
the underscore is in this view understanded as word separator, and it's not 
maybe the good idea.

This little bug appears in version 3.0 too, but I haven't confirmed it exactly.

Sorry for mistake: understood ;-)

The console is not Java language specific and hence cannot know the same as the
Java editor does.

Moving to Debug for final comment.

We might be able to have a pluggable selection policy based on the type of 
process being viewed in the console. However, this will not occurr in 3.0 - 
Deferred.

Would require a pluggable source viewer configuration per console content type. Marking as enhancement. Currently we have no plans to fix this.
