Sorry, my focus has changed considerably since making a couple of promises here. I still have this on my todo list, but it's not right at the top right now (although it is rising again).
With respect to Ivy + Eclipse specifically you need IvyDE, see the Ivy site. Ross On 24/06/07, Gav.... <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

However I never got it working successfully, the main problem being I guess is that I am a noob where Eclipse is concerned and don't really know how to use it. I spent a fair amount of time trying to get it to work without success and was not getting much work done, so have delayed trying to get it to work for a while so I can move forward a bit. I will try again at some point but wont be for a while. Gav...
