[Qt-creator] Deteriorating quality of the code completion in Qt Creator

[Henry Skoglund]

Hi,

maybe I'm stating the obvious here, but for me I took a while to realize 
that the code completion (and F1 context-sensitive help) in Qt Creator 
works *much better* if the code before, for example the line above the 
current line, consists of syntactically correct C++ code.
