Description Lars Vogel

If I use code completion to create an anonymous inner class based on an abstract class or an interface the required methods do not get implemented. 

This results in an syntax error and I need to use Ctrl + 1 to create the required methods.

I think it would be better to generate the required methods directly. This is also how IntelliJ does it and there users seem to appreciate this.

3.8 M5.

Have:

package p;

abstract class Abstract {
	public abstract void doIt();
}

public class Testle {

	void a() {
		new Abstrac<content assist here>
	}
}

==>


package p;

abstract class Abstract {
	public abstract void doIt();
}

public class Testle {

	void a() {
		new Abstract() {
			
			@Override
			public void doIt() {
				// TODO Auto-generated method stub
				
			}
		};
	}
}
