Where is the appropriate place to report code completion (AS) issues?

fun (String.() -> Unit).test() {
    "anything to demonstrate the point".apply {
        // no code completion for "this" -> "this@test"
        "something".this()
    }
}

Well that's because this in that context is actually not a function, it's a string! If you try to compile the code above, you get this :

`Expression 'this' of type 'String' cannot be invoked as a function. The function 'invoke()' is not found

[Youssef Shoaib [MOD]]

Does autocomplete show you this@test as a suggestion though? because if it doesn't then yeah this probably is a bug since this@test is actually applicable here

The point of code completion is to complete an expression that does not yet compile, to an expression that does compile. It does not show this@test as a suggestion.

[Youssef Shoaib [MOD]]

Ohhhhh then yep that's definitely a bug. KTIJ is probably the right place to report it to

I noticed this one as well, instead of reporting it I got used to type it out myself 😄

[Joost Klitsie]

if you have a report I am happy to star it
