[solved] eclipse find&replace ignores paste command

[abo]

Using the latest Eclipse / ADT (but it happened also with the previous versions), I hit ctrl-F to start find&replace: I enter the "find" string "/ui2/cl_json", move to the "replace" field and hit ctrl-V, to paste the stored valued "z_ui2_json".

Nothing happens.... or rather: the field remains empty, but the text was pasted into the sourcecode at the cursor position, which is definitely NOT what I was looking for.

Can anyone else reproduce this behaviour? I'd call it a bug, or at the very least an incomplete feature.

To me it seems like this:

There was a bug that was fixed shortly before the release of 4.34.

But in editors from ADT, this bug is still present. Maybe they were built on top of Eclipse's code from before the fix.

You can see that it works in Eclipse's general editor when creating a text file from File -> New -> Other -> General -> Untitled Text File.
