Description trvs2cool 2009-04-22 20:04:21 UTC

When I create a new Java Code Template (via options->Editor->Code Template->New), the new template never appears in the
code completion popup.

However, if I edit an existing one, the existing one works as expected (including the changes I made).  

Looking at
$userdir/6.5/config/Editors/text/x-java/CodeTemplates/org-netbeans-modules-editor-settings-CustomCodeTemplates.xml, it
appears that the user created one does not have a context set, while the existing edited one does.

If I hand edit the xml and include a context on the user created one, everything works as expected.

So, either a context has to be set automatically on user created code templates or code templates without a context need
to be shown every where.

Additionally, it would be nice to know what contexts are available in the Java editor since they are just arbitrary
strings. 

I believe this is probably the same issue as mentioned in 160771, but that was incorrectly marked as an enhancement so I
created a new bug.

Ideally the context should be selectable in Tools-Options -> Editor -> Code Templates. As you said it's the same problem
as issue #160771.
