Hi there.

Two days ago my Eclipse IDE stopped to react on CTRL+SPACE (code completion) in Java Editor windows. I'm not sure what could be the cause so I need some suggestions. Pressing CTRL+SHIFT+L shows me all shortcuts and there is CTRL +SPACE listed and if I click it the code completion works. Other combinations work, too, but I haven't tested them all. I can't see any new entries in the error log, and I already tried to start eclipse clean and cleaned all projects, too. I also updated Eclipse and all plugins. 

Any suggestions?

I guess you installed Mylar and then moved over to a newer build.
Reset the advanced code assist preferences.

Bingo.

Thanks for the help.
