Ronald Müller commented on JBIDE-23705:
---------------------------------------

Thank you for reviewing. My pull request was thought as proposal, not as final implementation. Its running on my maschine now and works so far (at least for me ;-) ). I'm sorry that didn't provide any tests for that, but i'm not familiar with plugin development and have not enough spare time for a deep dive.

Anyway the mentioned class/method should definitly be reviewed. There are serious bugs in there. The reflection part will not run in any case. See line 181 of jbosstools-freemarker/plugins/org.jboss.ide.eclipse.freemarker/src/org/jboss/ide/eclipse/freemarker/model/interpolation/NameFragment.java The condition there will never hold true.

regards ronald

> If your beans in freemarker templates are described by an interface, the code completion (content assist) will not work. 
> There two mechanism implemented to provide content suggestion: 
> # Bean-Introspection: this doesn't work for interfaces
> # Java Reflections: there are bugs which prevent any suggestions
> My suggestion: use only reflections - it will work for both and isn't that harder to implement.
> I'm working on a pull request for fixing this issue.
