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
