Definitely an issue in 8. My hack is to call everything an `int`, write the statement, and go back and let IntelliJ handle the proper name, adding the import, etc.

I understand though, that in more recent versions of Java this is taken care of for you.

Why not just write the statement and write `.var`? Like if you write

myService.getSomething().var

and press tab, it will autocomplete it to

Something something = myService.getSomething()
