• Bug fixes. Committed by ervandew.

Css

• Added css code completion.
  Requires the eclipse wst plugin. Committed by ervandew.

Dtd

• Added dtd validation.
  Requires the eclipse wst plugin. Committed by ervandew.

Eclim

• New graphical installer for easing the installation and upgrading procedure. Committed by ervandew.
• In previous releases of eclim, any time a command required access to the eclipse representation of a source file, eclim would force a full refresh of the current project to ensure that any external additions, deletions, or changes to other files would be automatically detected. However, this approach, while convenient and transparent to the user, comes with a performance penalty that grows as the project size grows.
  
  For some users this performance penalty has been more noticeable than for others. So in response to this feedback, eclim no longer performs an automatic project refresh. What this means for you is that any time you perform an action that results in any file additions, deletions, or changes, like a svn / cvs update, you should issue a :ProjectRefresh to ensure that eclipse and eclim are updated with the latest version of the files on disk. Committed by ervandew.
• :ProjectCreate now supports optional -p argument for specifying the project name to use. Committed by ervandew.
• Created new command :ProjectRefreshAll to support refreshing all projects at once, and modified :ProjectRefresh to only refresh the current project if no project names are supplied. Committed by ervandew.
• Added :ProjectGrep , :ProjectGrepAdd , :ProjectLGrep , and :ProjectLGrepAdd . Committed by ervandew.
• Added support for buffer local variable b:EclimLocationListFilter which can contain a list of regular expression patterns used to filter location list entries with text / message field matching one of the patterns. The main intention of this new variable is to allow you to filter out validation errors / warnings per file type, that you wish to ignore.
  Example which I have in my .vim/ftplugin/html/html.vim file:

            let b:EclimLocationListFilter = [
                \ '<table> lacks "summary" attribute'
              \ ]

  Warning

  This change will require you to remove all the old eclim vim plugins prior to installing the new set. A comprehensive list of plugins to be deleted is provided here.
  You may also use one of the following scripts to help automate the process. Just download the appropriate file to the directory where you extracted the eclim vim plugins and execute it. Please review the script before executing it so that you are aware of what it does. Please report any issues as well.

  • *nix users: upgrade.sh
    Be sure to either make the file executable
    $ chmod 755 upgrade.sh
    or run via sh
    $ sh upgrade.sh
  • Windows users: upgrade.bat
    Run via a command prompt so that you can monitor the output.

  After executing either of these scripts you may be left with one or more empty directories which are then safe to delete.
  I appologize for this inconvience, and hopefully this change will help ease future upgrades.

  Note

  The original implementation of :JavaImportClean was written entirely in vim (didn't require eclim server). To properly handle ignoring comments when determining what imports are unused, this functionality had to be reimplemented with server side help. However, the vim only version is preserved and will be invoked if the current file is not in an eclipse project.
