Hello. Content assist is not working properly for me.

First, I went and installed DLTK 5.0 (I could write a novel on how stupid it is to require the bleeding edge version of software, but in reality I have no time left after I spent all night upgrading Eclipse and all my plugins just to find out the software doesn't work anyway Mad ).

Then I upgraded to PDT 3.3.2.

Now content assist is only partially functional. It will not pull up constructors or recognize the type of new variables.


Installation: 4.3.2, DLTK 5.0, Ubuntu 14.04.

I'm sorry to vent but this is extremely irritating to spend all night unsuccessfully trying to upgrade, all because somebody decided to require software which doesn't bother to support the latest version of Eclipse offered in the Ubuntu repository.

Did you try to delete h2 database? Close eclipse and delete dir:
$WORKSPACE_LOC/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.dltk.core.index.sql.h2

Eclipse reindex your projects after startup.

DLTK 5 is required since PDT 3.2 due api change.
It's available in eclipse since 4.3 (default official repository), so I don't understand your problem. Maybe Ubuntu repo have a bug. Wink

Yes, this does seem to have fixed the problem. Thank you.

Brilliant! Deleting the H2 database fixed Content Assist for me as well. It had become huge over the years:

$ ls -l *.h2
