Indeed. But I will highly recommend to use eclim additionally to that setup. > To be honest I couldn't even imagine doing real Java > programming in vim because I don't konw the libraries and > language support in Eclipse is perfect. (I mean where else can > you just press c-s-o to fix imports etc?) In eclim you can't (yet) do something like c-s-o, but this feature must be fairly straight forward to implement. (I miss it also all the time). But there are several basic things for this feature already here: 1) obtaining of the java compilation errors from the java builder (used to maintain quickfix list of the compilation errors on save the java file); 2) JavaImport command, which allow you to automatically import for _one_ identifier; 3) JavaImportClean command to clean unused imports; 4) JavaImportSort command to sort imports. We just need some "volunteer", who will combine all this into one new command, lets say :JavaImportMissing. > There has also been some projects to integrate vim in Eclipse > (see sourceforge) or to use Eclipse as server to provide code > completion features to vim (eclim -> > http://eclim.sourceforge.net/ see also related projects). > However be aware that running vim within Eclipse will be a pain > because you have to learn two ways to get an Eclipse feature: > The default one and the way to access it from within vim.. About "pain": it is the same as with learning vim: things which you do most of the time and very often, you just learn how to do efficiently with vim + eclim; things which are used not so often you continue to do in eclipse directly. Not complicated at all. Especially since recent eclim trunk, which (finally) allows to run eclipse and eclim simultaneously on the same workspace. -- Anton. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
