[news.eclipse.newcomer] Content assist does not show member fields and types in other packages

Hey guys,

after working with VS for many years I recently switched over to Eclipse, so please excuse me if I'm asking naive questions ;-)

I'm working with Eclipse 3.4.1, which I downloaded in form of the Ganymede package. So my problem is that the 'content assist' feature does not properly work in my project's workspace. Here is a list of issues I'm seeing:

-More often than not, CA does not show field variables when I hit CTRL-Space. However, with some classes it works (though I haven't found the pattern yet).

-When I type in the name of a class defined as source code in another package within the same workspace, the 'quick fix' popup does not list these types. Types from java.* (like ArrayList) do show up.

-After defining a variable whose type is one of my classes in source code, when I type the . none of the methods that I defined show up, only the methods inherited from Object or whatever class my own class inherits.

So it seems to me, either something is screwed up with that content assist or I have configured something improperly?

Anybody any idea?

Thanks, Christoph
