I wasn’t aware 2.7.4 was coming around the corner.
If it could just have autocompletion working, I would be so happy.

Otherwise, you mean using 2.8.0 plugin + 2.7.4 compiler.
I didn’t realize it was an option.
If it can be made to work, it certainly seems easier to stay up to date that way.

There will be a Scala 2.7.4 release next week or so (including the plugin). It’s still unclear what will be backported to that release. I suggested that trunk could be used but Miles didn’t think it would be wise[1].

I am unsure about doing a new backport for the reason he gives in that message, so I suggest we wait for 2.7.4 to see what it will contain.

If it’s not satisfactory, then I’ll look into creating a build of the plugin from trunk with the compiler and standard libraries from the 2.7.4 tag. How does that sound?

Best,
Ismael

I know Miles Sabin promised an official one, but it doesn’t looks like it’s coming anytime soon.

I uploaded it and updated my installation from it before I updated the blog.

I am seeing that one now.
But this morning, I was seeing only the one from the 19th.

I updated to r17139-b20090219…, and it doesn’t seem to copy the resources.
(Luckily for me, the maven builder does, so I am not burned by the bug)

No longer gets the errors I had previoulsy.
Seems OK now.

Thank you for your reactivity.

I didn’t manage to update to the new version, I get the infamous ‘No repository found containing: ch.epfl.lamp.sdt/org.eclipse.update.feature/2.7.3.r17139-b20090218162429′.

I’ve uploaded a new build compiled with JDK5u17. That is the only change from the previous build. Let me know if you still have problems.

I noticed quite some improvements, but I rapidly ran into this :
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.String.isEmpty()Z
at scala.tools.eclipse.wizards.NewResourceWizard$Page.createControl(NewResourceWizard.scala:83)
…

Seems you are building with Java 6 (which introduces String#isString()) so the plugin is using it directly and not RichString#isEmpty().

Could you rebuild for Java 5 ?
The scala plugin is supposed to require Java 5 or later.
