NetBeans Plug for 2.8 BETA1?

Hi Sciss,

The netbeans plugin:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/erlybird/files/nb-scala/6.8v1.1.0rc1/
works with none problem with Scala-2.8.0 Beta1.

I've also upgraded the plugin source code to Scala-2.8.0 Beta1, but
not release it yet, there is a new affect which may cause parsing
fails (although rarely happens), I need a bit time to resolve it. And
I have also to resolve some issues that were found during past 2
months, most of them were related to Windows environment.

The one word is: use current plugin for 2.8.0 Beta1, it's good enough.

For the incremental building, if your project is split to several
sub-projects, the best practice so far is managing them via Maven
instead of Ant, please take a look at:

http://blogtrader.net/blog/how_to_setup_dependencies_aware2

In most cases, invoking "Build with Dependencies" works enough for the
dependency graph, and knows the dependencies between source files.

My current working project has 12 sub-projects, with cross
dependencies, maven handles them very nice, the building time is cut a
lot comparing to eld Ant based one.

Cheers,
-Caoyuan

hi caoyuan,

i've got my libraries as jars and they don't need to be touched. but right now i have around 100 files of the actual project, and when i change a single character in one of them, i press "build", the compiler fails with more or less random errors about missing symbols, so i need to recompile all 100 files all the time.....

i just checked out the latest IDEA, and it works very smoothly there, it really just compiles a few files and hence is a magnitude faster.... i guess both use the standard scalac in the background, so i wonder if this problem cannot be fixed in netbeans.

thanks , -sciss-

I don't know if this is related, but I need to open all source files for the syntax checker to work. It will stop and error highlight all references to classes that havn't been opened in the editor yet. Also, sometimes when I edit and introduce an error, the syntax checker will return to this previous error state and I will need to open all source files again for it to continue.

I've also separated out each class in it's own file, as you mentioned in another thread.

hi trond,

interesting. does this solve the problem with the incremental compile?

i have no problem popping up all my documents. (and yes, i have the problem with the syntax checker not seeing stuff unless their corresponding doc is open). but i will have huge problem have each class in a file :-/

thanks, -sciss-

I just write the ant buildscript myself and run it manually, so I do complete re-compilation each time.

Also, when I said I needed to open each sourcefile manually, I actually meant "visiting" each sourcefile, since it also applies to opened ones.
