Code completion requires the code to be set up to use Xcode's build system. Now, that doesn't mean you have to build your code that way, but the closer you get it compiling correctly with Xcode, the more likely you are to get code completion to work. It's not at all obvious how well you'll be able to get this to work. If there are lots of dependencies in the system headers on hardware, you may not be able to get very far at all.
