I’m new to Rails and need to get my Eclipse DLTK highlighting working.
It is occasionally giving syntax error, unexpected ':' for hash colon notation. Though the application runs fine.
I’m using Eclipse Indigo and the Ruby Development Tools.
So, unfortunately, this is still an issue in Eclipse, and it’s driving me crazy.
Both the Eclipse DLTK project (for both Indigo and Juno) and the Aptana Studio plugin for Eclipse — all have this issue.
Here’s the relevant bugs, still open and unaddressed:
1) https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=386350
2) http://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/APSTUD-4405
It’s enough to make me overcome the usual switching IDE inertia, so I’m currently evaluating RubyMine (it does not have that syntax error problem, as I just tested, and is an excellent Ruby IDE from everything I’ve been able to read).
[edit] For what it’s worth, I also just submitted a patch for this issue on the dltk.ruby github repo.
