Copy link to clipboard

I have an issue that I've come upon twice now and curious if anyone has a better workaround than what I do.
I use the format code button constantly to make sure i haven't broken something recently however certain lines of code it literally breaks... I think its using < or > in a use such as below::
var args: Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
becomes (note spaces)
var args: Vector. < String > = new Vector. < String > ();
What I have been doing is just adding //the code again so i can quickly copy paste back what it should be....
so i would have this:
var args: Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();//var args: Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
after hitting format code button this:
var args: Vector. < String > = new Vector. < String > ();//var args: Vector.<String> = new Vector.<String>();
then i would copy the commented text from the right to the left. Saves me a few keystrokes per line.
I'm sure somebody has a better solution for me .... I don't see a preference that would fix this.... (already tried turning off "add space after keywords")
Looks like the code formatter is mistaking the brackets around the variable type for mathematical operators. I blame AS3's ridiculous vector syntax. Anyway, since it results in invalid code, this is definitely a bug. Report it here:

I reported the auto format with vectors issue years ago, but no harm in it being reported outside of the prerelease.
