Hi
I am a very satisfied user of JDE (b10 on Emacs 20.4.1 on Win 98).
It compares very favourably to all the other IDEs I've used. However, some
of them, such as Visual Studio and JBuilder, have a nice feature where they
show hints for method name completion.
For example, if I was typing
Socket so = new Socket(
... at this point, the IDE will pop up a menu showing each of the overloaded
constructors. I find this useful because it acts to both reduce typing and
serve as a memory-jogger!
Would it be possible to add this functionality to the JDE? I assume it'd be
via the BeanShell. Or, if not the JDE, is there some other package that can
do this sort of thing?
Thanks in advance - both for any answers to this question, and for a great
package!
Regards
Glenn.
P.S. I do know about dabbrev-expand, which has been mentioned here recently;
however I'm after something that actually parses the JDK documentation.
