I have the following code (exactly out of the Servlet template, almost): protected void processRequest(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, java.io.IOException { HttpServletResponse resp; // HERE } If, at the location marked HERE (on the next line), I type: resp.CONTROL- SPACE I get the usual pop up box of all the fields and methods. However, if I type: response.CONTROL-SPACE I get nothing. I can hit CONTROL-SPACE until I'm blue in the face and I get nothing. I can also type: request.CONTROL-SPACE and I get the proper pop-ups again. Trying this on another function in another class, I find the same behavior - auto- completion works for the first parameter in the list, but not the second. This is confirmed by KC Baltz <KBaltz@responsenetworks.com>.
No reason to mark this P1, IMHO. This is not a data lost, and there is an easy workaround (to write this code by hand w/o autocompletion)
I hate to disagree too much, but I really think this should be a high priority bug. The primary reason I, and many others, use IDEs such as this is the speed with which code can be written. The biggest benefit, bar none, in my opinion, is autocomplete. I recall when I was first introduced to it many years ago in Microsoft's Visual suite- it was _the_ reason to use it and not some other IDE. Hence, would you please consider increasing the priority? This bug alone is cause NOT to use 3.3.1, IMO.

Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
