It would be nice to support abbreviations, and other usefull templates via code completion. I.e: for| Crtl+space will offer templates for "for" cycle like: for (int i=0; i<VAR; i++){ } or i.e. template for iterator: while (iterator.hasNext()) { type_decl var_name = (type_decl)iterator.next(); } after template substitution into the document there should be possibility to change dynamicaly the variable names, iterator name or type declaration at once. For example if you are changing the type_decl before var_name, it is dynamicaly changing in casting also.
I would like to see a separate shortcut for abbreviations and code completition (or possibility to choose between separate and single shortcut). Something like JBuilder has: Ctrl-J and a listbox of abbrs comes up. And of course possibility to switch off automatic abbr expansion.
Changing subcomponent to "code completion"
Already implemented.
