### Eclipse Scala IDE
-For Eclipse users, we recommend using Scala IDE 3.0.3, based on Eclipse
Kepler. While this is a slightly older version,
-we found it to be the version that works most robustly for a complex
project like Flink.
-
-Further details, and a guide to newer Scala IDE versions can be found in
the
-[How to setup
Eclipse](https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/docs/internals/ide_setup.md#eclipse)
docs.
-
-**Note:** Before following this setup, make sure to run the build from the
command line once
-(`mvn clean install -DskipTests`, see above)
-
-1. Download the Scala IDE (preferred) or install the plugin to Eclipse
Kepler. See
- [How to setup
Eclipse](https://github.com/apache/flink/blob/master/docs/internals/ide_setup.md#eclipse)
for download links and instructions.
-2. Add the "macroparadise" compiler plugin to the Scala compiler.
- Open "Window" -> "Preferences" -> "Scala" -> "Compiler" -> "Advanced"
and put into the "Xplugin" field the path to
- the *macroparadise* jar file (typically
"/home/*-your-user-*/.m2/repository/org/scalamacros/paradise_2.10.4/2.0.1/paradise_2.10.4-2.0.1.jar").
- Note: If you do not have the jar file, you probably did not run the
command line build.
-3. Import the Flink Maven projects ("File" -> "Import" -> "Maven" ->
"Existing Maven Projects")
-4. During the import, Eclipse will ask to automatically install additional
Maven build helper plugins.
-5. Close the "flink-java8" project. Since Eclipse Kepler does not support
Java 8, you cannot develop this project.
+**NOTE:** From our experience, this setup does not work with Flink

In the beginning of this paragraph it says "The Flink committers use
IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse IDE to develop the Flink codebase.". This should be
changed as well since we cannot help to get a working setup.
