Incompatibility between Eclipse Code Recommenders and Groovy-Eclipse (restart helps) #123

Hi,

as a committer to Eclipse Code Recommenders, I’d like to bring Eclipse Bug 470406 to your attention. It causes content assist in the Groovy Editor to stop working – until a restart. Thereafter, everything is fine: the “Groovy Content” and “Java Proposals (Code Recommenders)” proposal kinds happily co-exist on the default content assist list (Java > Editor > Content Assist > Advanced preference page).

I am not entirely sure what’s going on yet. Our IntelligentCompletionProposalComputer enables and disables a few completion categories EnableContentAssistCategoryJob and DisableContentAssistCategoryJob, but Groovy-Eclipse’s computers are not among them. The fact that a restart fixes the problem suggests some kind of problem with propagating this preference change, though.

Does Groovy-Eclipse query the content assist preferences in any way?

(If possible, please continue the discussion over at the Eclipse Bugzilla.)
