Parse JS file of tern doc with monitor about tern.java HOT 10 CLOSED

What is this issue about?

from tern.java.

My idea was to parse JS files with tern on background side with a monitor instead of parsing it when completion, hyperlink, etc are done.

Done with async tern completion https://github.com/angelozerr/tern.java/wiki/New-and-Noteworthy-0.9.0#async-tern-completion

Is it possible just to add more options into list when they arrive?

or make first line selection as "Retry" command

from tern.java.

Is it possible just to add more options into list when they arrive?

Asyn tern completion is done every time. When tern server starts quicly (not a lot of JS files), the completion shows the result directly otherwise it shows in the completion that tern server is working.

I'm not sure that it was your question?

I just seen implementations where suggestion list content grows (user sees more options as they are added). So user does not need to press anything, just wait. When the full option list is shown above line "Processing..." disappears.

It is just other user experience.

Was it eclipse? If so, looking at how it was done would be very interesting and I guess we could apply similar solution to tern.java.

That IntelliJ-based Android Studio giving suggestions inside Java class.
Java inside IntelliJ IDEA CE is open source, but I won't think it is worth looking at.

BTW with Android API it is quite common to have data in a List that is displayed in Adapter, then underlying data is updated and UI elements are notified to be updated. Isn't it so with Eclipse APIs?

Today it seems that "asynchronous ContentAssist" is not possible with Eclipse. I have created an issue at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=463210
