In NetBeans 6.7 we can get code completion as we type. Normally we must invoke code completion with Ctrl+Space. To get auto popup code completion we go to Tools | Options | Editor | Code Completion. We select Java from the Language combo box. The option dialog window shows the option Auto Popup on Typing Any Java Identifier Part (What is in a name?). We must select the checkbox to get auto popup code completion.
Now when we write code in the Java editor the code completion popup window shows when we stop typing characters.

Sadly, I want the code completion to kick in when I start typing. It feels more natural to me.
Is there any way to do this?
this is good but it should kick in automatically when you type, but its good for me as i dont type fast so i always see it. All in all VS and Aptana does it right
