Code Completion

Code completion provides context-sensitive completions and is enabled with Ctrl+Space. (NOTE: eclipse has simple text-completion by default in emacs-style with Alt+/).


Now, how to use it:

If you want to configure something, you have to go to Window->preferences->Pydev->Code Completion.





After setting the preferences, you have to set the PYTHONPATH you want to use for a certain project. To instructions on how to do it, check the FAQ.
