What I did do get better integration with eclipse is to write a one line
.bat
like so...
gvim.exe --remote-silent %1
And associated the non java files to the bat file, that way it opens
non-java files in the same instance of vim, and with the tab plugin I
get close to what I wanted.
If you just want to open files in Eclipse in vim, you can just drag and drop
the filename from the package explorer onto an open vim window. If I have a
java file open in the editor and I have to type more than a dozen
characters, I right click an choose the locate in file explorer option, then
drag and drop that onto vim. The other thing you can do it select open with
system editor, which I've managed to set to vim. Only problem with this is
that it will become the default, so you'll have to reset it if you want to
use the Eclipse editor (which doesn have features vim doesn't).
