Code completion for expressions

[j-maly]

Do you plan to add support for suggestions for expressions? Is something like that (type safety) even achievable with thymeleaf?

What I mean is if I type "${person.", the IDE would suggest firstName + lastName.

Like IntelliJ 14? This would be great ;-)

I think it's achievable in Eclipse, but I don't think I'll be able to get around to implementing this enhancement. I find myself using IntelliJ more these days, so don't spend as much time on the Eclipse plugin like I used to.

Always happy to accept contributions though hint hint :)

Has there been any progress in implementing this feature？

I think the biggest issue for that might be where it is supposed to get information about the available objects from. What might work is to first require a hint for the types in comments (something like <!--/*VAR someVariable:java.lang.String */--> and later add another feature to automatically detect these in Spring projects (specifically look for Model#addAttribute and ignore all other ways to add attributes which would require a dependency on JDT and would be incomplete but it would be a huge improvement).
