sbteclipse

Plugin for sbt to create Eclipse project definitions. Please see below for installation details and the Documentation for information about configuring sbteclipse. Information about contribution policy and license can be found below.

For sbt 0.13 and up

• Add sbteclipse to your plugin definition file (or create one if doesn't exist). You can use either:

  • the global file (for version 0.13 and up) at ~/.sbt/0.13/plugins/plugins.sbt
  • the project-specific file at PROJECT_DIR/project/plugins.sbt

For the latest version:

addSbtPlugin("com.typesafe.sbteclipse" % "sbteclipse-plugin" % "5.2.4")

• In sbt use the command eclipse to create Eclipse project files

  > eclipse

• In Eclipse use the Import Wizard to import Existing Projects into Workspace

Multi ScalaVersion support

Since Scala IDE 4.0 multiple scala versions are supported in a single eclipse workspace. The Scala IDE uses by default the highest supported scala version, 2.11 since Scala IDE 4.0 and 2.12 since Scala IDE 4.6. The default can be overwritten at workspace level or at project level. The latter is stored in the file .settings/org.scala-ide.sdt.core.prefs. This file can be generated with sbteclipse.

For sbteclipse 5.2.5 and up

Given Xi.Yi is the default Scala installation version of your Scala IDE, and Xp.Yp.Zp is the targetted scala version of your project, you add following in your sbt build file:

EclipseKeys.defaultScalaInstallation := "Xi.Yi" // "2.12" is the default
ScalaVersion := "Xp.Yp.Zp"

In case Xp.Yp < Xi.Yi, the lower scala.compiler.installation is configured at project level.

When you're using ScalaIDE-4.6.0 up to 4.7._ (until a new major scala version is the default), and x.y.z matches with one of the pre-installed scala compilers in the IDE, it should work fine out of the box.

For sbteclipse 4.0. up to 5.2.4

In case Xp.Yp = 2.10, the lower scala.compiler.installation is configured at project level.

When you're using ScalaIDE-4.0 up to 4.5._, and x.y.z matches with one of the pre-installed scala compilers in the IDE, it should work fine out of the box.
