missing documentation.value in completion items on Linux

[Eskibear]

The issue was first mentioned by @muggell in #842 (comment)

The details are missing in completion items. The issue keeps occurring for @muggell no matter IntelliCode is enabled or disabled.

While I still get the suggestions, I can't get the "Read more.." information. It just loads the top spar showing the "Math" and nothing below it. It's driving me nuts. I really enjoy VSCode on my Windows Desktop, but I can't seem to get it working on my Linux laptop.
So would you mind sharing your solution? Perhaps that might help me out.

Edit: I do on the other hand get suggestions and further information when I use VSCode for .js files.

Environment

• Operating System: some Linux distribution, see the original issue.
• Java extension version: @muggell please also provide this.

VSCode version: 1.33.1
IntelliCode extension version: 1.1.6
JDK: openjdk-11 or java-1.11.0-openjdk-amd64

When trying to reproduce it in a clean installed Ubuntu 18.04, I myself also encountered the issue for some times, but only occurs in the first time I trigger completion after vscode-java is activated.

@muggell please follow this issue, @yaohaizh @fbricon might be able to help you out.

[muggell]

@Eskibear Thanks for helping out. To provide the last bit of information:
Linux distro: Pop!_OS 19.04
Java Extension Version: 0.7.1

@muggell see if eclipse-jdtls/eclipse.jdt.ls#1006 (comment) is relevant to you

[muggell]

Cheers @fbricon it was actually the same thing that was wrong. It did for some reason look up the wrong path for the documentation/sources. So I think that it might be fixed now.

@muggell Can you please elaborate on how to update this path? Knowing that hovering over a function shows the documentation correctly, but it is not showing any on code completion.

[Ortega-Dan]

If javadoc shows on hovering but not on autocomplete it should be a different reason, because the hover way is actually able to find the autocomplete ...

Im experiencing the same issue on Ubuntu 20.04 + OpenJDK-11
Here:
No Javadoc on typing:

But it actualy shows on hover:

This is really annoying since you have to type the different options for a method for you to see the documentation.

[Ortega-Dan]

I confirm here that in my case it just got fixed by disabling IntelliCode extension ...

it is working now ..

And @ahmedhamdy90 already opened an issue MicrosoftDocs/intellicode#263 which was already identified and will be fixed in a future PR 👍

[ahmedhamdy2121]

@Ortega-Dan Yes, it should be fixed in the next release of the IntelliCode. MicrosoftDocs/intellicode#263
