Hi.

I think it is annoying that abstract classes is shown in the auto completion list.

If you write



and then start to instantiate a object



then the code completion list pops up, but it shows abstract classes, and since you can't instantiate an abstract class, I think they should not show.

It's a good idea, but on the other side if you have a single abstract base class and have to derive a lot of classes from it you will have to type the base class name each time because it wouldn't be shown
For people writing frameworks or something that "functionality" would be annoying.
Perhaps when it can be turned off... I don't really like my editor to decide what I get to see and what shouldn't be shown.

True, but it should be possible to see the difference.

If you extend and abstract class the token in front of your class name is "extends"

If your are instantiating then it is "new"

So it should be possible not to show the abstract classes when you instantiate an object, but show it if you wan't to extend it.

PS. Don't we all write frameworks

One after the other

Anyway sure, if the parser actually goes as far as keeping in mind the keyword before the code completion popup then that would be a good solution.
I don't think that is the case atm though, since the popup contains pretty much everything after you type extends

thanks for your report. As of 5225 it works appropriately:

BRILLIANT
