Eval? about angucomplete HOT 4 OPEN

+1 you should not use eval.

From what I can tell, the eval allows arbitrarily long chains of "dot notation". If we had list comprehensions, or by brute-forcing a for loop, the same thing could be achieved by split('.')-ing and then using bracket notation.

Yeah I agree, had meant to remove the eval but completely forgot it was still in there. Will fix it tomorrow. Cheers guys.

Yeah I was just curious because in my implementation I subbed out the eval with bracket notation and all is well :)
