code completion, project scope
Hi,
I would like to know if the code completion behavior has been changed in
the new NB version (>=3.4).
I'm particularly interested in if NB provides code completion support
automatically (!) for the classes and packages which are visible in a
given Java class. (The current - 3.3.2 - behavior is a bit annoying: no
code completion unless parser database is updated but from then on the
given symbols are offered in any Java class being edited, no matter if
the class/package is imported or not.)
Thanks
János

Seconded. I'd have to say that this is the one area where JBuilder (for
example) is better than NB, because it will only let you see code completion
for classes and methods that are actually visible. Having said that, I
don't know about the newer versions of JBuilder, but certainly up to version
5 (community edition, because I don't have L4,000,000 to spend on updates
every three months) you had to compile the classes in question before code
completion would appear for them in other classes, which is also a wee bit
annoying, but less so than NB.
Otherwise the editor is great -- much nicer than anything else I've used,
and with loads of funky shortcuts.
Thanks,
Bart

Hi Janos,
Yes, NB 3.4 provides such functionality.
Whenever you mount a filesystem of Java sources or classes, those
classes are automatically added to the code completion database. The
code completion database is automatically updated for that filesystem
whenever a file is modified, saved and successfully parsed.
As for project scope code completion, it is planned feature for NB 4.0
Thanks,
Mato

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the reply! When approximately will NB 4.0 be available?
Cheers,
János
