   can you enable server tracing ("java.trace.server":"verbose") and collect the logs from the output view (Java Language server)?
   also try:

   • wait for a few seconds between the moment the completions show up and when you hit enter/tab
   • restart vscode

   Already tried both of your recommendations. Didn't do anything.
   And here is the log:
   output.log
   Everything in log is generated by steps written in 'Steps to reproduce'. If you need more, just tell

   I've found out, that when you wrap for-each loop after line "else if (directory.isDirectory() == true)" to '{' and '}', then IntelliSense works, as it should be.

   I'm not able to replicate this anymore. Used following code:

   public class MyFile {
       int x = Integer.MAX_VALUE;
       int y = Mytest5.VAL;
   
       public static void main(String[] args ) {
           String zzz = "hello";
           zzz.indexOf("h"); // one
           try {
               zzz.charAt(0); // two
           } catch(RuntimeException re) {
               re.getStackTrace(); // three
           }
           zzz.indexOf("h"); // four
       }
   }
   
   

   Autocomplete works at all of one, two, three, and four.
