Recently some one was asking if Eclipse content assist/autocomplete can be made to suggest as I type my class name? Immediately I could remember XCode for mac doing something like that and I felt there should be a way in Eclipse.
By default eclipse autosuggest would trigger once you type "." the goal is to make it suggest me the "Type/Class" names too. How to make it do?
Steps:
Go to Eclipse(Windows for windows users) --> Preferences --> Java --> Editor --> Content Assist
Under subsection "Auto Activation" the default value for Auto activation triggers for Java will be "." change this to
.ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
Optionally you can increase/reduce the Auto activation delay to a lesser value.
You are all set! Now Eclipse will start suggesting as you type.
