RE: jde integration with hippie completion

Hi James,

 

Thanks for this contribution to the JDEE. I have integrated it into the
JDEE by adding your completion functions to the
hippie-expand-functions-list in the jde-mode function However, I am
having trouble getting it to work correctly. If there are multiple
possible completions for a method, it always chooses the first method.
Trying to get the next method by invoking hippie-expand again results in
a completion error. For example, suppose that you want to complete

 

String x = new String("foo");

x.getC...

 

Possible completions include:

 

x.getChars

x.getClass

 

However, invoking hippie-expand always gives you:

 

x.getChars(int,int,char[],int)

 

Reinvoking hippie-expand results in:

 

"Cannot complete return type of x.getChars(int,int,char[],int) is
void.")

 

I'm not that familiar with how hippie works so maybe I am missing
something.

 

Paul

Subject: jde integration with hippie completion

 

i use hippie completion in emacs, which does everything that the
standard completion (dabbrev) does, and so much more.  ever since i
first tried it, i loved it.  anyway, always bothered me that jde
completion had no hippie completion integration.  so, i finally got
around to writing it.  i'm passing this on so others can enjoy hippie
goodness with jde completion.  i wrote it against 2.3.5 version of jde,
so hopefully it'll work with 2.3.5.1.  maybe it could be integrated into
the jde-complete package...
