The "Scala Worksheet" feature of the Scala IDE plugin sounds pretty nice. Apparently it's a multi-line REPL, where changes automatically get compiled & evaluated upon save.
I'm having some trouble figuring out how to get it installed in my Eclipse, though. I already had an older version of Scala IDE installed, and apparently this is a fairly new feature. I tried the latest milestone, which is supposed to have it, but I don't see New --> Scala Worksheet when I try to create one.
Has anybody fought this dragon and won?
Edit: I have found my own answer. The trick was to use the following URL as the "update site" when installing ScalaIDE. When you do, the "Scala Worksheet" plugin will appear under the list of available software.

- nradov 14y agoUnfortunately the Scala IDE doesn't yet work with Eclipse Juno. Eclipse made a breaking API change. It's a shame they can't provide better backward compatibility; every new Eclipse release seems to break a lot of plugins. https://github.com/scala-ide/scala-ide/pull/145 https://github.com/scala-ide/scala-ide/pull/145
- eranation 14y agoI managed to install on Juno. I tried the following and all worked: http://download.scala-ide.org/ecosystem/dev-milestone-2.9/site/ http://download.scala-ide.org/ecosystem/dev-milestone-2.9/si... (includes both IDE and the worksheet, which I wouldn't give up on) Also the specific Juno one: http://download.scala-ide.org/releases-juno-29/milestone/site http://download.scala-ide.org/releases-juno-29/milestone/sit... but it doesn't have the worksheet feature both worked for me on the latest Juno release p.s. I did have some issues, and uninstalling and reinstalling did the trick
- zukhan 14y agoActually the first link didn't work for me on Juno (because of jdt dependency issues). The following update sites worked: Scala IDE: http://download.scala-ide.org/nightly-update-juno-master-29x http://download.scala-ide.org/nightly-update-juno-master-29x Worksheet: http://download.scala-ide.org/nightly-build-worksheet-scalaide21-29/site/ http://download.scala-ide.org/nightly-build-worksheet-scalai...
- ericssmith 14y agoI got it to work by using the 'nightly build' for Juno http://scala-ide.org/download/nightly.html#scala_ide_helium_nightly_for_eclipse_42_juno http://scala-ide.org/download/nightly.html#scala_ide_helium_...
- alook 14y agowhat do you think of "Scala IDE" vs. other JVM-friendly IDE's with Scala support (like IntelliJ)
- ramblerman 14y agoEasiest way is to just download the eclipse+scala ide all in one bundle from typesafe : http://typesafe.com/stack/scala_ide_download http://typesafe.com/stack/scala_ide_download
