Tooltips on comments, bug or feature
f#cloudsharper

If I have a documentation comment above a function, and one of the words in the comment is the same as another identifier (such as a parameter name or type name), it gets a tooltip just like hovering the pointer over the actual code element. Is this intended, or a bug?

Here's a screenshot.

We could get away more easily by saying this is a feature. :P (Do you like it?)

The version of FSharpBinding that we use is probably a bit out of date, we will look into updating it.

Does CloudSharper use the FSharpBinding?

As it currently is, I think of it as a bug. That being said, tooltips on a param comment name would be welcome, such as x below:

1
2
3
4
5
6

///<summary>
/// This function returns the value given
///</summary>
///<param name="x">The given value.</param>
///<returns>The same value</returns>
let id x = x
