The code assist/ hover and other things will not work in a specific situation. Create a projects with separate source folders (not using the project itself as a source folder) will break the functionality.

The cause is very simple but may indicate a bug in the new dltk indexer. However the indexer will index every file. It build some kind of "Category". Seems to me that every fill will be connected to a specific category. and every type is connected to a specific file.
However if you use separate source folders and not using the project itself as a source folder there will be multiple categories.

Looking why the Hover and code assist does not work at all indicates that every search will contain a WHERE condition that does not contain the correct categories. However PDT creates some kind of search scope and the search scope itself is correct.
Class org.eclipse.dltk.internal.core.index.sql.SqlSearchEngine, Line 71 in current cvs snapshot will only ask for the zip and project itself (scope.enclosingProjectsAndZips). And it will never find any type that will reside in a separate source folder.

Did I make a mistake when building pdt from source or can you confirm the bug? Should this bug be reported to dltk-team? Maybe you (the pdt team) already know but i did not find any bug in the dltk. I think it should be fixed before releasing 2.2
