I've recently moved to Leopard and Xcode 3.1.3. I'm editing some C+
+ code, but my code completions don't seem to work. I've checked
the Preferences pane, and tried setting completions to appear
Immediately, or after various Delay settings, but I never get any
code completions popping up, no matter what settings I choose.
After typing in an object name and the trailing period, or a
pointer name and the trailing arrow, shouldn't a list of completions
(member names) pop up?
I've tried using the control-menu at that point, selecting
Completion List, and double-clicking on the member I want to select,
but doing so inserts a carriage-return before entering the function
or member name I want.
Is this broken in 3.1.3? Or is there some setting I'm missing
somewhere that will fix this? I really miss having code
completion. As it is, I need to go to the header file and copy and
paste the member name I need (to avoid misspelling or capitalization
errors). Not fun!
After some digging, I found the help pages that explained how to get
that list (by pressing Esc[ape]). In Xcode 2.x, the completion list
popped up automatically (provided it was set to do so in the
Preferences pane). I'm not too happy that change.
What's even worse is that using the Help menu to Search for "code
completion" gave me no results. I had to dig into the Apple Xcode
Workspace Guide, and navigate down to "Completing Code". Should that
be indexed in a Help search? Typing in "completing code" in the Help/
Search field yields no results. Not very helpful, if you ask me!
