Hi,
Using 2.5 all seems pretty much ok. Just something I realised though with
CTRL-SHIFT auto complete which would increase the "magic" factor... take
the following:
Vehicle is an interface
Car implements Vehicle.
garage has a getVehicle() method that returns a Vehicle.
Now take the following code ( underscore is the cursor pos):
Car c = (_
After the parenthesis you press CTRL-SHIFT. This gives you:
Car c = (Car)_
Now you type:
Car c = (Car)garage._
...now in IDEA up to 2.5 you press CTRL-SHIFT here and nothing happens.
There are no methods that return a Car, only Vehicle.
However, if IDEA could pay attention to polymorphism like this without it
really affecting performance badly, you should be able to get it to
suggest getVehicle() because it should be aware that we are casting, and
so anything that returns a "base" of Car is a possible match.
Of course this could cause problems in terms of huge suggestion lists
(Object is base of everything) but perhaps not allowing Object would
solve this � although it would exclude a lot of suggestions that might be
right � perhaps sorting them in order of "closeness" to the target type
would work? i.e.
Car c = (Car)garage.[getVehicle() ]
[getSomeObject() ]
$0.02
Cheers
