Configure Eclipse to show Content help (intellisense) in Java

If you are running Eclipse for first time for Java, you may not get content assitant help while pressing Ctrl+Space saying “No Default Proposals”. To get Content Assist Help (like Intellisense in Microsoft Visual Studio), you have to configure it at first.

In Eclipse IDE, go to Windows -> Preferences. A new window opens.

In left pane, click Java -> Editor -> Content Assit -> Advanced.

Now, in right pane top box, you can select Proposals to be shown in Default Proposal of Content Assist.

Finally, Click Ok to save the configuration and you are done.
