Chain Completion Engine
Our chain completion supports the instantiation of types. It takes the programming context and searches through out all members and member's member until the specific type is found. The chain from the programming context to the search result are stored as a proposal. All proposed chains can be chosen to instantiate the type.
Completion on this
Completion from static types
Completion on method returns
Completion with type cast
Templates Completion Engine
Our templates completion engine provides dynamically created source code snippets on completion requests. The templates we propose are obtained from frequent patterns found in framework usage, i.e. the user is instantly served with the most common practices. For this not only the object type is considered, but also what has already been called on the variable - our templates are context-sensitive! You can see how they adopt to different occasion in the following screenshots. With this the new templates completion engine provides dynamic shortcuts for frequent code blocks and is also able to guide framework novices with relevant examples.
Completion for Local Declaration
