why Eclipse cannot autocompleete a distmarker in annotations?

[Drachenbauer]

Hello

 

I noticed, if i use annotations like

@Mod.EventBusSubscriber(Dist.CLIENT)

or

@OnlyIn(Dist.CLIENT)

Eclipse cannot autocompleete the "Dist" in the brackets.

it only tells me, that it does not know the word "Dist" and does not give me this import as a click-option:

import net.minecraftforge.api.distmarker.Dist;

Everytime i have to find, copy and paste this import manually.

 

Why the autocompleete does not work here?

hmm it works for me

I'm confident this happens due to annotation compiler settings in Eclipse.

I never had this problem until I reinstalled Eclipse recently and used default settings.  In my previous installation i had played around with annotations, and therefore enabled options to auto compile annotations or whatever.

do not use @OnlyIn, there's no reason for it, it is only meant for the vanilla classes to say what classes don't exist on a distribution

I'm pretty sure you need to pass your modid and the event bus to the eventBusSubscriber annotation aswell

 

also, your issue has more to do with eclipse than forge
