Alexey Kazakov commented on JBDS-3553:
--------------------------------------
substring completion is just one of many, right?
Can someone outline the features we get beyond it ?
Yes. There are:
- % of most used calls for: Call Completion, Constructor Completion, Override Completion
- Subtypes Completion (disabled by default)
- Subwords Completion
- Chain Completion (e.g. getA().foo().setB().doSomeOtherStuff() etc.)
- Adaptive Template Completion (inserts group of methods)
- Mylyn Completion
The full list of features is here:
https://www.eclipse.org/recommenders/manual/
last I checked the big feature of code recommenders was about showing
the % of the likelihood of a completion being relevant for a given situation - afaik that
only works for SWT/Eclipse platform code. Not for Java/JavaEE in general. Can anyone
confirm ?
That's true. Afaik you have to provide your own remote model if you want to extend it.
For example Mars by default includes
http://download.eclipse.org/recommenders/models/mars
only. It's mostly about SWT stuff only.
The coderecommenders rely on a remote DB to be updated and I believe
thre might also be data sent to coderecommenders or eclipse - is that part of the default
code recommender suggested here ? if yes, how does that affect our online/offline story
(if at all) ?
Afaik Eclipse downloads the models listed in the model repositories view. So you probably
should be online to download them. Don't know if you can pre-download them and include
in the installation and use them as a cache.
Integrate/Enable CodeRecommenders substring completion in JBDS
--------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBDS-3553
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3553
Project: Developer Studio (JBoss Developer Studio)
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: p2-product
Reporter: Mickael Istria
Assignee: Mickael Istria
Fix For: 9.0.1.Beta1
Eclipse Mars release are shipped with CodeRecommenders enabled so that Java developers
can benefit from substring completion and many others:
https://www.eclipse.org/recommenders/manual/
JBDS doesn't have it enabled by default when installing from installer. Since it
provides a lot of value for Java developers, it should be on by default.
