Hi!

I am new to this newsgroup. I am .NET developer who is developing .NET
applications for past 6 years. I love visual studio .NET IDE and its
intellisense is excellent. When I type in class name and . it shows me
all the methods and properties of class. Hovering mouse over method name
will give you detailed description of method. This is exteremly useful
as I don't have to press F1 keys explicitly for each function to find out
what it does.

Now I have started new development in java using eclipse IDE. Intellisense
in IDE is limited to shwoing all the memembers of class after typeing .
against the class name. When I hover mouse over specific function name of
class it doesn't give me method description.

Is this eclispe limitation?
Is there way where I can get detailed context sensitive help about each
method of the class?

Any help in this regard will be exteremly useful to me.

Thanks in advance for your help.
VJ
