how to implement autocompletion in editor [message #250453] Fri, 04 January 2008 16:45 Go to next message

Does anyone know how auto completion is implemented in JDT? For example,
when typing quote or brace, they are automatically closed with cursor in
the middle? Thanks,

Lisa

Hi,

This is not auto completion, it is called smart typing/auto Edit.
It may be implemented using an IAutoEditStrategy, that you can register
through your source viewer configuration (@see
org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.text.java.SmartSemicolonAutoEdit Strategy ,
JavaStringAutoIndentStrategy).
Or it may be implemented using a VerifyKeyListener connected to the
styledText (@see org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.BracketInserter)
