Re: [nebula-dev] Search and auto-complete widgets

Hi Sascha,
You bring up a good point. I wasn't aware of the new field assist added
to JFace.

Hi,
I am very excited about the Nebula project and am looking forward to
some great contributions.
The only thing which irritates me is the constant mentioning of
"auto-complete" widgets, be it text-fields, combos or others. I am
just not sure if the creators of such widgets (and the Nebula team)
are aware of the package org.eclipse.jface.fieldassist which allows,
in a very general way, to attach auto-complete functionality to any
widget.
I do not want in any way to diminish the efforts of people who
implemented such widgets themselves, but for the sake of consistency
and not duplicating functionality, these "widgets" can (at least now
in Eclipse 3.2) easily by implemented by programmers themselves.
If those widgets should be available for Eclipse < 3.2 then, of
course, one has the create them "by hand".
Just some thoughts...
Sascha
