Eclipe/Xcode-esque Paramete Completion
How do I get the code completion in IntelliJ to act like Xcode/Eclipse?
This meaning, typing a method that takes parameters, and when you select the method from the auto-complete list:
intToString(int val);
In Eclipse, you'll get:
intToString( (val-placeholder) );
and similar in xcode.
However, in IntelliJ, all you get is:
intToString();
How do you get placeholders for parameters in IntelliJ?
The closest I have found to this is IntelliJ IDEA 9's SuperComplete but in IDEA 12 I don't get the whole group of parameters like in this blog post but I rather get single parameters at a time.

unfortunatelly intellij requires some extra keystrokes, one for choosing the method and one for choosing method parameters, so:
seeing this behaviour, I think Idea shold combine this into one action.Please a feature request, post a link so we can vote for it.
Hmm, it's funny because in AppCode (the Objective-C IDE from Jetbrains) it works exactly that way. I guess because people coming from XCode are used to it. And when I think about it I actually prefer the XCode/AppCode style myself too.
Don't know how hard it would be to port that feature to IDEA or how many people would like the change. Maybe you should create a feature request.
I understand this, but how does one concat parameters like in the blog post?
