This is also an enhancement. I'll investigate this for a future release.
However
this is almost out of scope for a simple highlighting editor pane.

Hi Ayman,
I'm the founder of photo album software Jalbum (http://jalbum.net). I would
like to
use your editor inside Jalbum in order to simplify editing Jalbum's template
files.
For this I'd love to see the exact same enhancment. This is why:
Users editing Jalbum template files really don't remember all the (say 100)
Jalbum
skin variables. If the editor was smart enough to present a pop up menu with
multiple
choices when there is an ambiguity in the code completion (like most IDEs do),
that
would help tremendously.
I know you don't want "creeping featurism", but such an addition would in my
opintion
make this component very versatile.
I'd also love to see Combined html and Java syntax support (jsp style,
sensitive to
<% scriptlets %> )

Thanks for your interest.
Intellisense is a bit tricky. It's more than just a menu to be popped up.
When you
have that "menu", it should narrow down as you type, and it should dynamically
change
with characters as you type. Otherwise it will look really crude. I'll try to
have
some tests for that and see how it feels. I'll surely upload that test as well.
As for jsp support, it could be done by a new Lexer. I just did not have time
to add
that. I'd love if somebody else can do that, and i'll gladly put it in the
main release.

Forgot to mention that in the meantime, you should be able to use the
preliminary
completion feature like in JavaSyntaxKit. The completions are in
jsyntaxpane.javasyntaxkit.completions.properties

Just because, I'm currently working on the UI for Intellisense. I initially
used an
editable combobox, but it was not that easy to work with, and did not provide
all the
functionality. I ended up creating a textbox and a list box frame that is much
better. It is kinda crude, but does the job pretty well for its size.
I'll wrap up and clean the code, then add some completions to test the UI.

Reflection and Abbreviations should do the job for now.

Are there any plans to further integrate reflection and intellisense?

Possibly. But that requires full parsing of the language to be
usable. I researched that a bit, but it was a bit complicated.
Adding a parsing library will be doable, but will be a substantial
change. A google project "javaparser" seems like a good fit. but not
right now. I'll add an Enhancement and see how many votes it gets.
Vote for this if you think its worth the effort. It will blow up the size of
the jar
and take us into a new territory.

Code assist functionality would be amazing, but it's not practical (or even
beneficial) for a project like this. In order to be useful, code assist would
need to be aware of the build tree, including all linked libraries, build
paths, etc. This would require in-depth knowledge of the environment, which
would destroy jsyntaxpane's portability.
It would be a much better design to use an external code assist library (such
as JDT) and once you've generated your list of suggestions, feed them into
JSyntaxPane to be rendered.

Well, that is why no more work was done for this. It would be too much for
this kind of utility library.
