Eclipse content assist (JavaCompletionProposalComputer) not triggered

I have a plugin that implements a content assist hook using JavaCompletionProposalComputer. Upon that event, I compute something and the update my view. The problems is that the view stays on and I am not able to trigger content assist and thus my handlers. When I minimize the view, I am able to use it again normally. Is this some kind of focus problem? How to solve this? Any help appreciated.

it seems that my problem was related to focus. For some reason, the focus was lost whenever I "showed" a view. I resolved the issue by replacing

IWorkbenchPage.showView(view_id)

with 

IWorkbenchPage.bringToTop(view)

Hope somebody will find this useful.
