Spring Code Completion Scenarios

.

Phase 1 - Static completion values

.

Phase 2 - Resource values

.

Phase 3 - Values requiring XAM model

.

Phase 4 - Simple Java completion items

.

Phase 5 - Complex java completion items

.

Phase 6 - Smart Completion items

4<beans>/<import>/resourceDirectories and names of all beans configuration files in the current project, relative to the file being edited.Phase 2

.

5<beans>/<alias>/nameList of all bean names (and ids) of all beans that are accessible in the current beans context file. This will involve all bean entities as well as alias entity namesPhase 3

.

6<beans>/*/<bean>/classList of all packages as well as classes in the project's classpath.This completion will be similar to the completion in Java files.

<bean id="sampleBean" class="com.sun.foo.bar.FooBean"/>
In this scenario, when the user presses Ctrl+Space the first time, the package names should be offered for completion and then, with press of every "." the sub packages/classes should be offered. The completion in this scenario will be the same that is offered for the import statement code completion in Java files		Phase 5

.

8<beans>/*/<bean>/scopeList of predefined scopes (singleton, prototype, request, session, global session) + custom scopesAn example of custom scope being used after registration:

<bean class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.CustomScopeConfigurer">

<map>
<entry key="thread">
<bean class="com.foo.ThreadScope"/>
</entry>
</map>
