I want Eclipse to automatically suggest to me all possible options, while I’m writing some variable/class name or keyword, like in Flash Develop or Visual Studio.
Is it possible?
If not, with which Java IDE can I get this?
I’m specifically asking about a way to automatically get the same thing I get using CTRL + Space, while I’m typing.

Answer
You can also set auto completion to open automatically while typing.
Go to Preferences
> Java
> Editor
> Content Assist
and write .abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
in the Auto activation triggers for Java
field.
