<p>Yep, takes the parameters for the constructor and it uses that as the prototype for the new function that doesn't exist yet.</p>

<p>And ... if there happen to be other functions named <code>f</code> the calltips will cycle through the prototypes of those functions and never come back to the erroneous one.</p>

<p>Seems like some extraneous function definition is being made for the calltip.  But it never appears in the symbol list.  Like as if something is scanning for the ) and using the parameter list immediately before it, ignoring the <code>public: C(</code>.  But what, its not the parser because the symbol doesn't show in the sidebar?</p>
