Description Sam CLA 2002-09-08 02:17:18 EDT 
Enhance the following code completion?

In a method of a class, I type

private void aMethod() {
    String aStr = <code complete here (i.e. CTRL-SPACE)>

the code complete will list out all the methods which return String and are
assessible by the current scope,
and will list out constructors of the class String as well?

Thank you.

Constructors are only proposed behind the new keyword.

We are currently working on improving the sorting of the matches based on type 
expectation.
Comment 2 David Audel CLA 2003-01-22 11:01:35 EST 
Currently the proposals are all methods. But the methods which return String 
are on the top of the list.

String s = new <cursor>
If you do ctrl+space then type String is the first proposal.
