Zend Studio: How to fix Code Completion, when it stops working

I have ran into an issue/bug with zend studio/eclipse IDE, every once an a while code completion will stop working. I have not been able to pin down what exactly causes the problem, but here is my fix.

Delete the following file in the Zend Studio workspace:

Zend/workspaces/<your workspace name>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.dltk.ui.prefs

Thank you very much man… I had to delete all the Workspace folder in mine as there were a bunch of org.eclipse and I didn’t know what to do -rebuild the whole workspace did it.

One question, if I just delete the contents of .settings will I have to rebuild the workspace?

thanks again

Got it!

The file is

Zend/workspaces//.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime/.settings/org.eclipse.dltk.ui.prefs

Thanks anyway!

@tierrarara
Make sure you were looking for “org.eclipse.dltk.ui.prefs”.
