Has anyone experienced code assist just stops working? In the Java editor, my code assist just stopped working. I have no idea why. Anyone else experienced this and has a solution? My productivity has ground to a halt without all my custom templates.

The Java editors is provided by the base Eclipse install. My first suggestion to you if it “just stopped” working is most likely a memory issue. Try having a peek at our tip here:

This has just happened to me as well. I have two workspaces – one of which is fine, code assist works, but in another it doesn’t. Both contain a number of Java projects.

I had already increased the memory settings as proposed in the posting linked to above:

-vmargs -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M 

…which doesn’t appear to have made any difference. Interestingly if I select the “Show Heap Status” option from the MyEclipse menu nothing happens…

This is quite frustrating. Does anyone have any ideas?

Camden,

Sounds like your workspace has “gone bad” for a bit. It’s usually because some of the metadata get’s corrupted so to fix it I’d try two things. First shutdown MyEclipse and restart wtih the -clean flag:
eclipse.exe -clean …rest of normal args…

Once restarted, force the workspace to do a full rebuild by cleaning all projects from the build (or is it projects) main menu. The menu where you turn autobuild on or off.
