Unable to make autocoplete working [message #1386223]

I am using eclipse with milestone LDT plugin.

For plain new LuaProject-s autocomplete works fine (math, io, os, etc...).
I've found several projects on github which explains how to build your own ee for ldt/eclipse.

I've created and imported ee into eclipse, added it to project. After this manipulations can see imported ee in Script Explorer tab, can open it and navigate through doc files. But autocomplete doesn't work.

Can you point what step I've missed?

Hi,
I just tested your Execution environment and I can use autocompletion with this sample of code :

local a = require "Action"

a: -- I call autocompletion here

But I see a mistake with inheritance in your EE :

--------------------------------
-- @module Action
-- @extend Ref

should be written :

--------------------------------
-- @module Action
-- @extends Ref#Ref

Thanks for reply, is there a way to make autocomplete working for global tables just like io table?

Your execution does not contains the module description of standard lua vm. (io, table, math ...)
You should add it, if you want tooling for those modules too.

(Just add files from lua 5.1 EE to your EE, if there are a 'global' module you need to merge it)
Hope this help Smile

if you want you could add it to this page : https://wiki.eclipse.org/Koneki/LDT/User_Area/Available_Execution_Environments
It seems there is already an execution environment for cocos2D.
I don't know if it's the same version Smile
