Developers depend on APIs of frameworks and libraries to support the development process. Due to the large number of existing APIs, it is difficult to learn, remember, and use them during the development of a software. To mitigate the problem, modern integrated development environments provide code completion facilities that free developers from remembering every detail. In this paper, we introduce CSCC, a simple, efficient context-sensitive code completion tool that leverages previous code examples to support method completion. Compared to other existing code completion tools, CSCC uses new sources of contextual information together with lightweight source code analysis to better recommend API method calls.
