I think this is a bug.
The automatic closing of braces also adds a semicolon after the closing brace if appropriate, and then the cursor is placed between the braces:
struct A {$};If you type a closing brace the cursor jumps over the automatically inserted one. But the semicolon can't be skipped by typing it, so you end up with:
struct A {};$;
It should either not add the semicolon at all, or remember it and skip it in the same way it does with the closing brace.

I am not sure how to approach fixing this without making things more complex and possibly unreliable most of the time. It's the edge cases where things get complex. |

I wouldn't say often. It's just a minor annoyance when it happens. |

I agree this isn't ideal. Is this something you often run into? I am wary of making things more complicated, rather than more simple and reliable.
There are some edge case bugs already with inserting closing brackets, and skipping over them. Here, what happens when you are moving around the code? What happens if you enter a semi-colon between the curly brackets, and then jump to the end of the line? |
