Eclipse plugin: autocomplete, as it should be

Question

I have a problem with several possible solutions.

I study computer, and now I work as an intern. My task is to create a business application for Android and iOS. I have been working with Visual Studio 2010 for 2 years now, Xcode is pretty simulated, so not a single major one, Eclipse, on the other hand, is the way I'm used to, I don't say it badly. I still enjoyed Eclipse, but now I constantly use Xcode and Eclipse

Now hold on there before you answer! I know that there is autocomplete in Eclipse, but it will only appear after pressing Ctrl + Space or after one of the maximum of four activation activation triggers is activated.

So my question is:

Is there any tool that starts auto-completion after every keystroke or something else? I tried looking at my own Eclipse plugin, but it was hard to learn about the Eclipse API from scratch, although tutorials with Auto Complete features are welcome! (they should cover classes like ContentAssistCommandAdapter )

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The delay between pressing a key and a pop-up window is adjustable. Thus, as an alternative to the plug-in, you can configure the autofill options to pop up after a shorter period of time, for example, 1/10 second.

 Eclipse preferences -> Java -> Editor -> Content Assist -> Enable Auto Activation Auto activation delay (ms) 

(shows Mac OX 10.6, launches the Eclipse Indigo release, but the option exists forever):
