[Github-comments] [geany] Rewrite scope completion 3 (#862)

[Jiří Techet]

> Damn, you're right. Though, while trying to fix this in the C parser, I don't think it works now it reports ns::C. Probably the type is not split up on scope separator, so a qualified type doesn't work I guess?

Right. In this case I think we want the scope to be part of var_type because we need to distinguish

```
class Foo {
    Bar bar;
}
```

from

```
Foo::Bar bar;
```

I think the type-scope splitting of var_type could be done in the scope completion code when the parser gets fixed. But even after that it won't do any magic - we for instance don't see things like "using namespace Foo;" so scope completion won't work in all cases.
