Description Victor Huerlimann CLA 2008-10-14 10:07:51 EDT 
Respectable Eclipse developing team,

I would like to let you know about a thing that I noticed as I started programming in Java. I have to say that I'm a C# programmer, and I'm using Visual Studio: that may explain what I'm asking to you.
I think that an important feature is missing in eclipse:
An autocompletion when the user just starts typing something on the editor, on a new blank line. Say one is importing java.net.*, and on a new line he
starts typing: "S". At this point eclipse should automatically show possibilities starting with "S", like Socket, or ServerSocket, without waiting for the user to press ctrl+space.

I hope my idea will be accepted.

Best Regards,
Victor.
