Actual behavior

When I start typing a not yet declared data attribute name let's say self.zelda immediately when I type the dot, the error is raised and keeps throwing errors with each character typed.

Expected behavior

Don't throw errors just because a data attribute (which is not-yet defined) is not found.

Steps to reproduce:

1. When I start typing the name of a not-yet declared data attribute (e.g. self.data_attribute) in a class __init()__ method the output window pops up on each character typed which is not found and the output is like below.

Duplicate of #2017?

~@Fogetti @cadl ~
Please could you provide some sample code.

Closing in favor of #2262

[ghost]

@DonJayamanne Was it intentional that now both issues (this and #2262 ) are closed? I can't see either of them resolved or worked on. So basically you just simply closed both bugs, right? Am I missing something?

[DonJayamanne]

Meant to reopen the other issue. Fixed
