Dot completion in Xcode?



What kind of code completion for Java does Xcode 2.1 actually support?

I want something like this to work:

Vector v = new Vector;
v.[and here I want a pop-up with a list of all available functions]

However, all I get, when I press ESC, is a list of word that begins with the letter(s) I already have typed. In the example above, if I press ESC after I have typed v it suggest:

v
var
void
volatile
Vector

This is rather useless. If I press ESC after typing the dot, nothing happens.

Even more ridiculous is this:

System.out.println("abc");

ESC works while I am typing 'System', but nothing happens when I am at any of the dots. And most stupid of all, when I am typing 'out' and press ESC I get 'No completions found'! :-(

I have RTFM:ed about code sense but it doesn't say anything about dot-completion. However, I am pretty sure that functionality similar to dot-completion is available for Cocoa/Objective-C.

Any suggestions?
