How to stop Eclipse's autocompletion from going mad? [message #1226457] Wed, 01 January 2014 16:18
Eclipse UserFriend
The Java editor's auto completion feature used to be a highlight of Eclipse. But since v4.3 (Kepler) it has gone nuts and I am constantly fighting with this beast!

For some reason it now always replaces the last word with the topmost type suggestion when I hit " " (blank). E.g. if I start writing "final ..." to define a variable member, I end up with "FinalArrayList " (from package com.sun.istack...) as soon as I hit the blank following the word "final". And I could add dozens of similarly brain-damaged examples here! Why does the auto completion even consider such internal packages? And why does it replace what I type without my consent?

How do I stop this nonsense?
