Jim:

....further, if let's say Eclipse places the argument between the parentheses, 
a press of the Delete key will remove the parameter. The only down side to this 
is if there are more than one argument.

Also, CTRL + Space bar will bring up another list of options.

Subject: [program-java] Eclipse Discovery About Code Completion

Hi,

I made a discovery just now because I was writing some JAWS code to examine 
what was popping up in some Eclipse windows. This is about code completion.



As you are typing along in a Java program and you want to get a list of code 
completion choices, do this.



1. type part of a class, such as System, then a period.



2. As soon as you press the period key, immediately press the Tab key. That 
puts you in a list of choices.



3. Pick a choice and press Enter.



4. press the period key again, then Tab again.



5. Pick a choice.



I'm sure you get the pattern by now.



There's more to discover, such as what happens when you hit Control + Space and 
Control + Shift + Space, but I haven't figured out that yet.



Thanks.



Jim
