Hi Dani,
Sorry for the misleading "messed-up code" statement.
I didn't mean that Eclipse was proposing wrong fixes, it proposes
possible fixes, some of them making sense given the program to
write, some others making little sense in that context. For
instance, students are often confused at the beginning between
static and non-static fields or methods. Being half in one world
and half in the other, by their own confusion, Eclipse may propose
to qualify as static some fields in some classes, which would
solve the compilation problem, but would only in fact worsen the
situation where nothing should have been static in the first
place. Something that Eclipse has no way of knowing or inferring.
So, I am sorry, but it seems that my question remains, where in JDT
is the support for Quick Assists/Fixes
and how can I short-circuit it? Thanks for any pointers in the
JDT plugins.
That leads me to another question, it seems that JDT would have
hooks to track the activity of the users?
I am talking about the hooks used by Eclipse to report usage
patterns.
How can I locate those hooks in the code?
Many thanks in advance for your answers.
Olivier.

What do you mean by "messed-up
code"? If we propose wrong fixes, then please file a bug report
and
cc me.
And, as said by Jonah if your
students
don't refrain from using the Quick Fixes when told so, they will
for sure
download a version where they are enabled again.

Suppressing Eclipse Java Proposals
Sent by:

You can turn off which proposals are provided with
Preferences
-> Java -> Editor -> Content Assist -> Advanced.
You may want to look at other settings such as
Preferences
-> Java -> Editor "Report Problems as you type".
If you really want to disable them in the code and
rebuild,
you can track down which preference each of those connect to and
hardwire
it (e.g. "git grep" the string in the UI and find out its
preference
value). (However, if you are worried about the students just
turning it
back on, it seems that they can obtain it from eclipse.org/downloadsand have the full functionality again.)

Hi,
I am teaching Java programming directly in Eclipse and my
students get
confused by the Eclipse proposals to fix compiling errors.
Although the functionality is great, the net result is that
students blindly
follow the proposals and end up with messed-up code.
Given I want them to learn Eclipse and Java development in
Eclipse, I am
wondering how to:
Suppress code proposals in the Java editor
Suppress template proposals in the Java editor
Completion is fine, but I want just absolutely no proposal to
fix compilation
errors.
Doing it via setting up preferences could be a good start,
but it will not be good enough, since students would turn it
back on...
So I would like to go in the code, build my own version of
Eclipse, and
disable the functionality entirely.
Can any one point me in the right direction in the source to
short-circuit
the proposals and templates.
Many thanks in advance.
