.. _2.18.0:
2.18.0 (Jan. 09, 2021)
----------------------
Eclim:
- Eclim updated for Eclipse 4.18 (2020-12), so java 11 or newer is also
required.
Removals:
.. note::
Since eclim's inception 15 years ago, some better alternatives have been
created, especially in the last 2-5 years. The creation of the `Language
Server Protocol`_ in particular provides the means for IDEs, etc to expose
their functionality to editors like vim. So instead of trying to solely
maintain all of eclim's features, I've decided to strip out much of the
stuff I don't use and refer people to actively maintained projects that
hopefully have the time and resources to keep their features current and
expand on them. So below I've listed several plugins/features that have been
removed from eclim.
- Android: google stopped supporting eclipse years ago.
- C/C++
- Php
- Ruby
- Groovy
- Scala: Metals_ looks like a good alternative that supports LSP + Vim.
- Vimplugin: this was never part of eclim's goal, just seemed like something
that was easy enough to include at the time.

there is more than one result.
- Updated eclim's sign support for quickfix results to now be disabled by

sign types on a single line and to avoid clashing with other plugins that
may be setting signs on the same lines as eclim.

| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.4.1) <2.4.0...2.4.1>`
.. _2.4.0:
2.4.0 (Aug. 24, 2014)
---------------------
Eclim:
- Eclim now supports, and requires, Eclipse Luna
- **:EclimSettings** renamed to **:WorkspaceSettings** to better reflect what
is being edited.
- Added :ref:`:VimSettings <:VimSettings>` command to make viewing/editing of
eclim's vim client settings easier.
- All eclim ``make`` based commands (:Ant, :Mvn, etc.) will now use dispatch_
if available. If you would like to disable this behavior, add the following
to your vimrc:
.. code-block:: vim
let g:EclimMakeDispatchEnabled = 0
- Lot of bugs have also been fixed.
Scala:
- Scala support is disabled in this release. I tried waiting for a final
release of ScalaIDE 4.0.0 for Luna, but I don't want to hold up the rest of
eclim any longer. If you want to use eclim's scala support, you'll need to
install the ScalaIDE 4.0.0 milestone and build eclim from the master git
branch.
| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.4.0) <2.3.4...2.4.0>`
.. _dispatch: https://github.com/tpope/vim-dispatch

| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.3.4) <2.3.3...2.3.4>`
.. _2.3.3:
2.3.3 (Apr. 06, 2014)
---------------------
Installer:
- Fixed running of the installer with Java 8.
Eclimd:
- Starting eclimd in the background is now done using the ``-b`` flag instead
of passing a ``start`` argument.
- Eclimd debug logging can now be enabled at startup using the ``--debug``
flag.
Ant:
- Fixed ant target completion for newer ant versions (those that require java
5).
C/C++:
- Fixed adding of includes etc. in the C++ sections of **:CProjectConfig**.
- Fixed searching to include macro results.
- TODO/FIXME markers are now ignored by validation.
Html:
- Fixed indentation after unclosed `` `` and ```` tags.
Java:
- Fixed possible infinite loop when adding imports using **:JavaImport**.
- Fixed an edge case which caused an additional empty line to be added between
imports that should be grouped together when using **:JavaImport**.
- Fixed **:Java** command if the main class has no package declaration.
- Fixed issue with large portions of code being re-formatted when applying a
correction suggestion.
- TODO/FIXME markers are now ignored by validation.

Python:
- Eclim's python support been re-written to use pydev instead of rope.
.. note::
Any exiting eclim python projects you have should be re-created with the
new ``python`` nature:
::
:ProjectCreate /path/to/project -n python
Scala:
- Disabled use of temp files which could cause some validation errors.
- Added support for automated imports.
Xml:
- Fixed validation of xml files with no dtd/schema to not raise errors on
missing dtd for non-english users.
| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.3.3) <2.3.2...2.3.3>`
.. _2.3.2:
.. _1.7.18:
2.3.2 / 1.7.18 (Sep. 12, 2013)
------------------------------
Installer:
- Fixed extraction of scala vim files when installing scala support.
Php:
- Fixed completion of php namespaces.
| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.3.2) <2.3.1...2.3.2>`
| :gitlog:`Git Log (1.7.18) <1.7.17...1.7.18>`
.. _2.3.1:
2.3.1 (Jul. 27, 2013)
---------------------

| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.3.1) <2.3.0...2.3.1>`
.. _2.3.0:
.. _1.7.17:
2.3.0 / 1.7.17 (Jul. 21, 2013)
------------------------------
Java:
- :ref:`:NewJarEntry <:NewJarEntry_java>` now accepts up to 3 arguments
allowing you to create the jar entry with the path to the jar, path to the
source, and the path to the javadocs.
- On javadoc search, all results, including results found in jar files, will
be fully translated to usable urls to be opened by vim instead of sending
jar results back to eclipse to let it open them. With this change your
chosen brower on the vim side will always be used.
- Fix for import grouping by package on Kepler.
Php:
.. warning::
**Reminder:** The format of the h2 database used for php searching and code
completion has changed in **Kepler** which may result in searching / code
completion not returning any results, both in eclim and in the standard
eclipse php editor. To fix this you'll need to stop eclipse, remove the old
index, and then restart:
::
$ rm -r /.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.dltk.core.index.sql.h2/
Scala:
- Updated to require 3.0.1 of the Scala IDE which now supports Kepler (for
eclim 2.3.0 only). Since this version of the Scala IDE seems to only support
Scala 2.10.x now, the option to install 2.9.x version has been removed,
however the indigo release of eclim (1.7.17) still supports the Scala 2.9.x
version of Scala IDE 3.0.0.
Xml:
- XmlFormat now uses the DOM3 APIs to improve the formatted result, honoring
your ``textwidth`` and indent settings.
| :gitlog:`Git Log (2.3.0) <2.2.7...2.3.0>`
| :gitlog:`Git Log (1.7.17) <1.7.16...1.7.17>`
.. _2.2.7:
.. _1.7.16:
2.2.7 / 1.7.16 (Jul. 14, 2013)
------------------------------
Java:
- Fix for some completions on Kepler.
- Fix for rare case where an invalid classpath entry could result in the
.classpath file reverted to the eclipse default.
- :ref:`:JavaCallHierarchy <:JavaCallHierarchy>` added to show the caller or
callee hierarchy of a method.
|br| Thanks to Alexandre Fonseca
Php:
.. warning::
The format of the h2 database used for php searching and code completion has
changed in **Kepler** which may result in searching / code completion not
returning any results, both in eclim and in the standard eclipse php editor.

restart:
::
$ rm -r /.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.dltk.core.index.sql.h2/
Ruby:
- Fixed the inserted completion text for some ruby libraries.
Scala:
- The graphical installer now includes a compiled eclim sdt bundle for both
scala 2.9.x and 2.10.x for which one will be chosen for you if you already
have the scala-ide installed, otherwise you can pick one and the appropriate
version of the scala-ide will be installed for you.
Vimplugin:
- The option to force focusing of gvim with a simulated click is now disabled
by default, but when enabled, it should be less likely to have unintended
side affects.
Cygwin:
- Performance optimization for user's with many projects.
Installer:
- The installer will now properly shutdown eclimd instances registered using
the old non-json format.
Docs:
- Expanded the :doc:`developer docs ` to include docs on
:doc:`creating new commands ` along with some of the
basics for :doc:`adding new eclim plugins `.

.. _2.2.6:
.. _1.7.14:
2.2.6 / 1.7.14 (May 18, 2013)
------------------------------
Bug Fixes:
- Fixed eclimd to prevent incorrect addition of -d32 on 64bit systems, which
prevents eclimd from starting.
- Fix potential conflicts between syntastic validation vs eclim validation
(syntastic validation will be diabled if eclim validation is available for
the current file type).
- Many more fixes.
Android:
- Updated for ADT 22.0.0
C/C++:
- :CCallHierarchy now support showing callee tree.
Java:
- :ref:`:JavaImpl <:JavaImpl>` now supports anonymous inner classes and will
also properly handle suggesting methods from a nested superclass.
Php:
- Eclim will no longer run php files through html validation by default (see
the Php Validation doc for settings to enable html validation).
Scala:
- Scala support updated for Scala IDE 3.0.0.
- Scala now supported on both versions of eclim (Juno and Indigo).
