Hi. Just fired up Xcode for the first time today. Mildly disappointed
that Code Sense, Fix & Continue, aren't supported for Java.
Does anybody know if the old Project Builder feature of word-based
completion is still available in Xcode? I'm talking about that feature
where you hit Escape and cycle through a list of possible completions
based on nearby words in the same source file. The "Complete" key
binding in the "Text Key Bindings" preferences doesn't seem to be it.
Regarding the primitive word-based completion, I was surprised how much
I missed that too, after trying Xcode's "intelligent" Code Sense
completion.
You can get this behavior, and macro expansion as well, by installing
the Completion Dictionary from Objective Development (free). See this
page for details:

I believe the one caveat with Xcode (as opposed to Project Builder) is
that you have to actually install it in the Plug-ins directory within
the Xcode application package itself. But I have been using it for some
time without problems.
