[news.eclipse.tools] Code completion PITA...

["Scott Stanchfield" <thetick@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The code completion is driving me nuts... (Well, I was already halfway
there, so it's a short drive...)


If there's text immediately to the right of the cursor, the code
completion kills it.

If I have something like

  getFoo();

and I want to change it to

  foobleBlaster.getFoo();

I put the cursor before getFoo() and type:

  foob|getFoo();
      ^
     cursor

when I do code completion, it kills the getFoo(). Not optimal.

So I need to enter a space or dot before the getFoo(), move back, use
code completion, then kill the space.

Any chance to change it more like the way VAJ handles code completion?

TIA,
