I thought I would ask, because although I have been told on the "FP for Eclipse" website that it is very much a work-in-progress, I figure that importing packages would have been implemented long before we got syntax coloring. Quite the opposite ... Syntax coloring is one of the simplest things you can do in Eclipse (although it is based on simple rules and very, very crude in our case ...). Driving the compiler is a more difficult matter, especially since it has to be platform-independent with Eclipse, and the whole thing is
Hi Geoff, you have hit a weak point there ;-) You cannot yet specify packages in the Eclipse plugin. It will be possible in the next release, though, which will allow to specify additional options that are passed to the compiler. I hope to get that version (0.5) out at the end of October. Meanwhile, it is possible to hack the plugin and make it use custom options, but this requires some knowledge of Eclipse development. Instructions how to do it are here: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1113486&forum_id=371922 planned to support different compilers/interpreters. Ciao, Leif
