Description Vera Henneberger CLA 2006-01-19 13:58:14 EST 
Actually eclipse offers only a simple autocompletion for variables.
Examples:
Typing "String " & Autocompletion -> "String string".
Often name of variables should end with the type of the variable.
Example for smarter Autocompletion:
Typing "Element rootE" + Autocompletion -> "Element rootElement"
Comment 1 David Audel CLA 2006-02-07 11:35:40 EST 
Fixed and tests added
  CompletionTests#testCompletionVariableName4() -> testCompletionVariableName14()

"Element root" is completed to "Element rootElement"
"Element firstRoot" is completed to "Element firstRootElement"
"Element rootEl" is completed to "Element rootElement"

if a prefix is defined (eg 'f')

"Element froot" is completed to "Element fRootElement"
