Description Johannes Lerch CLA 2011-02-24 10:08:56 EST 
In test case CompletionOnSimpleTypeNameWithVariableName of fixture project org.eclipse.recommenders.tests.fixtures.rcp.codecompletion.templates we define that completion in this situation should work:
Button b<^Space>

So I'm expecting that
Button b <^Space>
will also work, what is not the case.

JDT api does not allow us to fetch that information easily as it's a different completion node. It looks like we would need to do some code parsing ourselves which I think isn't worth the small usability enhancement. Therefore I close this one with wontfix. If someone steps up and wants to fix it, a good patch is welcome.
