Automatic content assist in CCS

Hello,

I used to play around with the Tiva Launchpad for a while. I´m using Code Composer Studio for programming the Launchpad.

When I start to write a function there is the possibility to activate the content assist with pressing Ctrl+Space then a window with all possible functions pops up. Is there a possibility to let this window appear without pressing Ctrl+Space? I want to activate this window everytime i start to write a function or a variable without pressing Ctrl+Space all the time. In my opinion it´s very inconvenient to press Ctrl+Space all the time. Thank you for your help!

 

 

 

 

  • Depending on what you are typing it may be auto-activated or you may need to hit Ctrl+Space. Please see the CCS Online Help section on Content Assist for details (CCS menu Help->Help Contents and search for Content Assist).

  • So there is no possibility to pop-up the window everytime you write some code (without pressing ctrl+space). I couldnt find the answer in the Help Contents.

  • This is a feature that comes from Eclipse and is the default behavior. I'm not sure if newer versions of Eclipse have updated this behavior to be able to bring up content assist without pressing Ctrl+Space, but there a couple of threads (this and this) I found on the internet that may be of interest to you.

  • Unfortunately I didnt find a possibility to auto-activate the content assist (especially when programming C instead of Java) in CCS.

    But I found another way using another tool. If somebody also wants an automatic content assist in CCS with C here is the link: http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/52546-automatic-content-assist-in-eclipse-and-ms-visual-studio-c/

    However thank you very much for the help and the quick response.
