Close braces don't appear [message #97348]

I've been using Eclipse for some time, it's been configured to add a closing
brace whenever I enter an openning brace. Today, I'm not sure what happened
(I didn't modify the settings that I know of), but now whenever I type an
openning brace, no closing brace appears.

I've looked over the preferences - In Editor | typing, I have close braces
and parans checked. Is there another location in Preferences that I need to
look at? I can't find anything. (Of course it is Friday - strange things
happen on Fridays!)

Wait a minute - my problem only occurs when typing a function, the closing
brace DOES appear with individual statements. Maybe I just don't recall
closing braces not appearing with functions. Like I said, it's Friday.

Can't closing braces be made to appear when writing a method, e.g.
public void foo()
{
<-- no closing brace appears.

works for me in the latest builds - note that the closing brace will
only appear after you type return.

Maybe you accidentally switched off "Smart Insert" mode?

Try pressing the "Insert" key on your keyboard until it reads "Smart
Insert" in the lower right of the status line.
