Thanks Andrew. I did file a bug report on April 3rd, <rdar://5842431>.
In my experience, java code completion *did* work with Xcode 2.5,
when I had just Xcode 2.5 installed. I do not currently have 2.5
installed, only 3.0. I am extremely reluctant to install 2.5 because
I at least have subversion working with Xcode 3.0 and don't want to
do anything to mess that up.
Fwiw, in the past, Xcode had problems doing code completion inside
java static methods (though it worked fine in 2.5, iirc). So that's
why, in my bug report, I mentioned that I created a new method and
code completion still did not work.
If possible, I would avoid using Xcode for Java development. Xcode is
great for C/Obj-C, but the Java support feels like an afterthought. A
few of the bugs that I've filed on Java:
4961655 - Xcode shows warning dialog while opening Java project
4961617 - Xcode hangs while editing Java source
4430362 - CHUD 4.3.2 doesn't like being unable to find java source
4430338 - CHUD 4.3.2 doesn't show line-level samples for Java inlined
methods
4383469 - CHUD 4.2.3 can't automatically locate Java source files
These remain open in Apple's database, although I haven't checked them
lately. I use Eclipse when I'm writing Java, which has many nice Java-
centric features, including excellent code completion.
