Repeat of :vsc commands not working

[cbilson]

I apologize in advance if this is not a bug or if it has already been addressed. I tried looking through the issues (open and closed) and didn't see anything like this.

I've created an alternate set of leader-prefix keyboard mappings and used those to drive resharper via the :vsc command. Here's a gist with an earlier version. I really love the :vsc command, both because it lets me move the R# commands out of the way and still use them, and also because it makes several of them macbook keyboard friendly (and just wrist-friendly in general.)

Before doing this, if I wanted to move a method up several slots in a class file, I might do Alt+Shift+Up Arrow several times until the method was in the right place. When I started using my new mapping, on instinct, I git dot (.) after <Leader>mu, expecting it to move the method up another slot.

This didn't work.

I guess :vsc isn't technically a change (although the text in the buffer sure changed :-) ) so maybe this isn't supposed to work?

Any ideas how I could get this to work?

You are correct that the edits perform by :vsc aren't a change hence they don't get repeated with a . command. Have you considered binding it to a macro and repeating the macro instead?

@cbilson I tried today something like yours
map rs :vsc ReSharper.ReSharper_SurroundWith
but it doesn't work for me. I got "Parse error". Does it work for you in Visual Mode?

Wow, I am really bad at replying to messages. Appologies. I just saw this.

What I use is:

map <Leader>rs :vsc ReSharper.ReSharper_SurroundWith<cr>

I just tried it and it's not working for me either. I am pretty sure it did at some point, but maybe I am wrong.

I have some other commands like this that definitely do work, for example:

map <Leader>rf :vsc ReSharper.ReSharper_IntroduceField<cr>

So, I am not sure what the issue with surround with is.

@cbilson no worries.

I think you may be running into #1377 now. There is an issue on some machines which prevents R# commands from running via :vsc. I'm still having trouble tracking it down but it's something I've been looking at a bit this weekend

Since :vsc is a command and since @: now repeats the last command, this is the preferred way to repeat a :vsc command vs. using .. As a result, I think this issue can be closed.
