Stable Scala 2.8 plugin
eclipse, plugins, scala, scala-2.8
Solution
The main web site for Scala Eclipse plugin is now at www.scala-ide.org
You can try the plugin for 2.8.0 RC2 with this update p2 site (not browsable: copy `http://www.scala-lang.org/archives/downloads/distrib/files/scala-plugin-rc/`)
As for a truly stable version, that plugin is not there yet, but as Miles Sabin once told me (Sept. 2009): "Looking forward to receiving your contributions." And he was quite snappy about it too ;) But that was enough to convince my hierarchy that is was too early to invest in Scala at the time: too large eclipse user-base in our department, and no real Scala support/documentation at the time on Eclipse. In all fairness, the contribution and developer documentation is now much richer than it once was.
Problem
Does anyone know if there exists a stable version of the Scala plugin for eclipse, running with Scala 2.8 (any version of scala 2.8...RC or beta or whatever). I like the fact that it compiles 10 times faster than the netbeans plugin, but it is very unstable, and auto-imports doesnt work. Also, sometimes it cant find classes when I hit "run", then I have to clean it again. This is with some random nightly build of the 2.8 eclipse scala plugin. Is there a stable version? If so, can you link me to it? Thanks in advance :)
