Eclipse/Java code completion not working

I've downloaded, unzipped and setup Eclipse 3.4.2 with some plugins (noteable, EPIC, Clearcase, QuantumDB, MisterQ).

Now I find when I'm editing Java projects the code completion is not working. If I type String. and press ctrl-space a popup shows "No Default Proposals" and the status bar at the bottom shows "No completions available".

Any ideas?

Thanks....

That was it! Somehow all were unchecked. Thanks VonC.

Ah! a classic... I spent hours on this one the first time I stumble upon that issue ;)

I'd give this two up votes if I could! :)

If you have installed Google Toolbar for IE, may be you can face the same problem. Because, the toolbar capture the shortcut ctrl+Space.
