highlighting and code completion are so-so, but better then nothing.
It works on Mac, Linux, and Windows (with jre1.4)
to activate code completion type <cf and it will show all the cfmx tags
(the attribute part works from time to time - bad rule somewhere), and
after you type a function it'll tell you the syntax for the function -
cooler still it'll actually tell you the return type :)
To install the plug-in do the following (after you download eclipse of
course http://eclipse.org):
1. Go to Help/Software Updates/Update Manager
2. In the lower left box (marked Feature Update) right click (control
click on Mac) select "new" then site bookmark
3. add Name: cfeclipse URL:http://cfeclipse.rohanclan.com click finish
4. that should have added a new item to the tree. In the tree, open the
cfeclipse, then Other, then click on com.rohanclan.coldfusion-feature
5. in the preview window (upper right) it should now list the plug-in
details - click the button that says install now.
When it's all done the framework will want to restart. After it has, the
new plug-in will be associated with cfm, cfml, and cfc files. Just open
any of those files and the plug-in will kick in.
There is nothing fancy about the plug-in just yet - its just the editor.
It only does syntax highlighting and code completion (mostly anyway),
but hopefully as time allows it will do more.
I am waiting for sourceforge.net to give me a project space and I'll up
load the code, if anyone wants to help they are more than welcome. I am
doing it under LGPL.
Cheers
