For which programming language?
`eldoc-mode' does it for Emacs Lisp, and the ilisp package provides it
for Common Lisp. They don't actually use tooltips, but display the
information in the mini-buffer.
Something similar might be available for other languages -- for Java you
should probably look at the JDE package.
