| Hi Jay,
I did some work around JDT Content Assist for Flux. I found as well that a lot of the completion proposal code logic is implemented in subclasses of IJavaCompletionProposal (ICompletionProposal which depends on Eclipse UI) which are located in JDT UI plugin and are UI dependent. Also a lot of the related code is located in packages under org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext which in JDT UI plugin as well. I ended up extracting UI independent pieces of code from JDT UI and implementing them in Flux JDT service. In fact one class i just copied into Flux because it only had JDT Core dependent utilities. In other cases i copied methods and adopted them for Flux (removed UI dependencies from them). Would have been nice if majority of completion proposal logic from JDT UI were in JDT Core. Content assist in Flux seems to be close to the JDT content assist now exceptions are keywords and templates i think. There is more work to be done on Content Assist in Flux. It’s still in the prototype state. All my content assist support work is delivered to master branch in org.eclipse.flux.jdt.service plugin.
Cheers, Alex Hey Jay,
Alex is also looking into options in the area of JDT and more advanced content-assist, code-completion, quick-fixes, and refactorings.
Maybe you both can work on this together? That would be wonderful.
Cheers,

Thanks Martin!
And the JDT hover support sounds nice. What about submitting a pull request for this? Would be great!
Well, I thought it's not in a good enough state to be in. It works perfectly for binary elements, not so well for source elements. The reason is (not just limited to this feature) there are quite a few nice features that are programmed in JDT/UI, which we can't make use of at this point - "Javadoc from source files" is one example, code completion being another.
As I said earlier, looking forward to join the call from next week on and be able to discuss more on these with the team.
Regards,
Jay

Hey Jay,
great to hear that you are looking into Flux, that is awesome. Especially the headless JDT core services are in interesting area to explore further.
Would be great to have you joining the calls, you are very welcome.

I was meaning to join today's call but was bit confused about the timing and joined late. But wasn't sure if I was on the right call, so hung up.
Anyway, just wanted to say that, I have managed to get it up and running, played around a bit. I find Flux to be very impressive. I also like the idea of being able to leverage the headless JDT core services to provide Java tooling capabilities.
I am looking forward to join the call from next week on and contribute to the effort. Meanwhile, I will think about some low hanging fruits from JDT Core, like the Javadoc hover I have added here:
https://github.com/jarthana/flux.git
This is just a first-cut by no means complete, just a result of my experiments. To view Javadoc for an element, place the cursor on the element and press F2.
Regards,
Jay
