Extend Java Editor - Extend Content-Assist Mechanism [message #318087]

Hello.
I have to develop a plug-in that will use the Standard Java-Code Editor from
Eclipse, in order to manipulate source-code files written in a language
"almost" identical with Java.

Because of that "almost", I need to extend the Content-Assist mechanism, in
order to provide some additional completions that would not otherwise be
available.

My question is: how do I begin it ?
Should I use some extension point from the "org.eclipse.jdt.core" plug-in,
or rely on some Listeners mechanism ?
A small code-sample would be very helpful.

Thank You.

Take a look at the org.eclipse.jdt.ui.javaCompletionProposalComputer
extension point.

I've looked at this extension point, and at the end of the documentation
that it provides, it says
"see org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.text.java.HippieProposalComputer for an
example."

Where can I find this package ?

Thank You.

In the same plug-in as the extension point is defined (org.eclipse.jdt.ui).
