Hello everyone,

I am experimenting with Proposal Provider customization.
I want to add an own keyword to the existing ones.

I am using this as an example and here is how far I reached:

override void completeExpression(EObject model,  RuleCall ruleCall,   ContentAssistContext context,  ICompletionProposalAcceptor acceptor) 
	{
		val myEntry = createCompletionProposal('KeywordToShow', context)
		acceptor.accept(myEntry)
		super.completeExpression(model, ruleCall, context, acceptor)
	}

I have debugged the code and found that the existsConflict method of AntlrProposalConflictHelper returns conflict and I no have any idea why.
I see that the equalTokenSequence(getLastCompleteLexer(), getCombinedLexer()) is false when I try to complete a 'K'.

Can you please give me any hint, how to get rid off this problem?

hi, i have no idea with the information you provided
but is may be that either
Keyword or To to Show are keywords
or there is a keyword pre and postfixed by KeywordToShow

=> what happens if you use

val myEntry = createCompletionProposal(' KeywordToShow ', context)
instead

The KeywordToShow was misleading, it is not a keyword, not even a substring of it.
But adding those two spaces fixed the problem for some reason...

Thank you a lot Christian! I would have never figure it out myself.

do you execute the proposal here

xxxxxx|

if you now insert it the result will be

xxxxxxKeywordToShow

and xxxxxxKeywordToShow be parsed as one ID
