Eclipse: Enable autocomplete / content assist

By default in Eclipse you only have to press Ctrl + space for autocomplete. Then select the desired method and wait 500ms for the javadoc info to pop up. If this doesn’t work go to the Eclipse Windows menu → Preferences → Java → Editor → Content assist and check your settings here
