Scala IDE Helium, Nightly
Helium is the codename of the Scala IDE’s next release. If you like staying on the cutting edge, make sure to install this nighlty.
New Features
Highlight Implicits Available
Implicit definitions are a powerful Scala construct, but it is often hard to guess when they are applied. With Implicit Highlight you get immediate visual feedback in the editor and, by pressing
Cmd/Ctrl+1, turn an implicit into an explicit call!
Semantic Highlighting
Coming Soon
Identifiers are colored based on their meaning, improving readability. For instance, a
val can be colored differently from a
var and a
lazy val!
Move Class, Object or Trait
Available
Move a source file between packages or extract a
class,
object or
trait definition (from a file with multiple definitions) to a new location.
Update Sites
Because it is currently not possible to install both plug-ins within the same Eclipse installation, you need to decide what version of Scala you want to be using and then choose the appropriate update site.
Requirements
-
JDK 5 or JDK 6 (JDK 7 is not supported).
-
Eclipse 3.7 (Indigo), including the JDT. Either “Eclipse Classic” or “Eclipse for Java Developers” is sufficient. (It can also be installed on Eclipse 3.6, but it may not work perfectly.)
