You should be seeing member completion at least. If you're not, could
you open a ticket in Trac with a minimal example that reproduces the
problem.

Miles,

Yes, member completion has been OK for a while as far as I have noticed, but
class name completion has not been implemented yet, I assume.

I update the plugin almost daily. The evolution since the 2.7 plugin is
rather impressive and this really aids development, especially for people
making the switch to Scala from Java and the "perfected" IDE support they're
accustomed to.

Do you have a roadmap of what new functionality you would hope to deliver in
the coming releases?

Hello,

please, how do I update the eclipse plugin?

I'm using the update site for 2.8 beta (Scala 2.8 Beta -
http://www.scala-lang.org/scala-eclipse-plugin-beta-preview) - it says that
there is nothing to update...

and the actual version I'm using is 2.8.0.r2067.

Thanks,

Marcos Ackel

If you want Scala IDE builds which match the nightlies of the command
line tools then you should use the following update site,

http://www.scala-lang.org/scala-eclipse-plugin-nightly
