Description Petr Pisl 2016-04-05 13:13:17 UTC

There should be code completion after string literal and should offer fields and methods of String object.

Example:
"string".upperCase()

Comment 1 Petr Pisl 2016-04-06 11:37:03 UTC

The same should be applied for regex literals.

Code Completion for String Literals

Now NetBeans offers code completion after a string literal. It offers nonstatic fields and methods from String object. 

Also the signature file is updated to fit ECMAScript 6 specification. Some methods marked as deprecated, some added.
