Subject: 25.0.90;
 First match found by isearch-forward-symbol is not necessarily a
 symbol.
Date: Sun, 07 Feb 2016 21:41:34 +0100
Instructions to reproduce:

1) emacs -Q
2) open a new file called "test.c"
3) enter this text:

int main() {
  int i = 0;
  return 0;
}

4) go to the beginning of the buffer
5) hit M-s _ and search for the symbol "i"

---> The very first character in "int main" is highlighted as a match
     even though the first match should be "i" in "int i =0".

Please imagine that you need to search for the symbol "int"
(or any other symbol longer than the single-character "i").
How then you would be able to type the whole symbol "int"
if the search failed after typing the first character "i"
(or moved to the first occurrence of the symbol "i"
when you need to find the symbol "int")?

I agree that this is a useful feature.  Not having it would make
entering the search pattern confusing.

But I think it should be documented.  When does it occur, and what else
is matched (one or two sentences).

There could also be some indication when this first match is not a
"real" match - but that might be overkill.


Regards,

Michael.

What you are saying makes sense, but the bug I outlined above is more
severe.

For example: In this line:

unsigned int i = 0;

when searching for the symbol "i". Taking your comment into account I can
see why the first match would be "int", although that's actually not a
match for "\_<i\_>", because if we would match "i" directly, then there
would be no way to go back to match "int" should the user enter more
characters. However, what happens is that the "i" in unsIgned is matched,
which is surely never going to be a symbol...

Thank you for the detailed test case.  The reason why “i” matches
in the middle of the symbol by not adding an anchor “\_<” is because
we need to support the symbol search backwards as well.  This means
that the symbol search should add “\_<” for searching forward,
and “\_>” for a backward search.  The same applies to the word search.

We could do this by adding an optional argument ‘backward’ to both
‘word-search-regexp’ and ‘isearch-symbol-regexp’.  One complication is that
this change is not backward-compatible.  Instead of this, I propose to use
different values of the existing arg ‘lax’, e.g. values ‘nil’
for a forward search, and ‘backward’ otherwise.

Then it will match at the beginning of the symbol for a forward search,
and at the end for a backward search.  Same for the word search.

Then we could use the already existing indication "[pending]"
in the search prompt.

I think that would be a good solution.

In bug#25562 we found no more ideas how to improve the support for
the process of entering incomplete words, so in addition to the patch
in bug#25562 that adds indication, also I'm going to install this patch
that will optimize the incomplete search by removing conditional
matching at the beginning:

I think I prefer the original behavior (but actually, I use a private
version of `word-search-regexp' that behaves entirely differently, so my
opinion doesn't matter).  But apart from that, the patch doesn't work as
expected (even with the other patch that adds indication also
installed):

- in emacs -Q, hit C-h i to go to the info top dir

- I want to word search for "directory".  point is at point-min.

- I hit d.  Isearch jumps to the "d" in "Type "d" in Info to..."

- I type the remaining letters: "irectory".  The isearch prompt says
  "Failed" apparently because I'm now past all matches and isearch
  didn't reconsider the text before the first match "d".

Hmm, this is strange.  Unlike the more radical patch in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/25562#22, the latest patch here in
https://debbugs.gnu.org/22589#31 is more moderate - it just restricts
matches to word beginnings, so your recipe didn't fail when I tried.

My fault indeed.  Because the patch didn't apply with any Emacs tool, I
had applied it "by hand", but that in a wrong way.

Looks ok now after just calling "patch", and the behavior also seems to
make sense.  Sorry about the confusion.
