Can nightlies of the Eclipse plug-in be used with Beta1 of the library?

Try doing a full clean and see if that sorts your problem.
I have one project where I'm working with the nightly plugin and maven-supplied 2.8 beta 1 on my classpath, things are generally good for me except for the otherwise known issues in eclipse.

However, Miles recommends using nightlies of the Eclipse plug-in, which has a newer snapshot of Scala-2.8.0

Is it ok if I use the Scala-2.8.0.Beta1 in the classpath (I'm using M2Eclipse and am using Scala library from Maven Dependencies, not the one provided by the plug-in)

I get an error "no-symbol does not have owner" in one project and I'm wondering if it might come from incompatibility between the compiler and library versions.

I've done that 10s of times, no help.

This has become a risky proposition since the substantial refactoring of
the compiler after Beta1. I'd recommend either sticking with an IDE
build from before the refactor (what I have been doing) or setting up a
system where you rebuild all your Scala dependencies with the nightly of
the plugin you intend to use.

Best,
