Strange behavior in the editor when a variable is named "va"

[caschoff]

Apache NetBeans version

Apache NetBeans 31

What happened

If you name a variable "va" and format the code a second space appears right of the declaration of "va". If you refactor "va" and delete the additional space, occurrences of "va" at other places in the scope of the code will delete the char right of "va".

Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component

Java Maven Project

How to reproduce

Use this code:

int va = 2;
if (2 == va) {
boolean result = true;
}

Format the Code, look at the declaration of "va", a second space will appear.

Rename "va" with STRG+r, delete the second space, the closing bracket of the if-statement will be deleted.

Did this work correctly in an earlier version?

No / Don't know

@caschoff please have a look at #9586. That should fix the issue. A nightly build is available from the checks page or directly: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/suites/90301179877/artifacts/9735857919.
