Play with Java Files Method in "Groovy" (Auto Completion)

Hello ,

Can we use the Auto Completion Feature on the Java Class Methods in Groovy
files ?
Suppose I want to call the "getPartyName" of PartyHelper.java class.

So If I import the package by  "import org.ofbiz.party.party.*;" in my
*.groovy file then
How can I enable auto completion feature that works(by Ctrl + Space) on Java
files that I imported previously in Eclipse IDE?
I already installed Groovy Plugin in Eclipse but as I found its not working
for me.

Please Help.

David,

Thanks for the pointer.

The second option don't look feasible to have in real life.
Although If first feature is their then I think we are fine for now.

You have to declare/cast types in order for the plugin to figure it out.

In other words if you do this:

GenericValue party = delegator.findOne(...);

then you'll get auto-completion on "party.", but if you do this:

party = delegator.findOne(...);

you won't. In other words, the plugin could be smarter but at the  
minute it seems not to be.
