Using (Java) Eclipse abilities in other programming language

I use Eclipse mainly for LSL (linden Scripting language). The plug-in f开发者_运维技巧or this language does not provide things like templates or task-tag recognition. Is there any way that these kind of features in LSL-files (or any other generic file/code for that matter) can be used?

Take look at the XText project. If you can define the grammar of LSL there it will generate full Eclipse plugin for it, complete with syntax Highlighting, code Completion, validation and quick Fixes and more.

Another one to try (one i use myself) is LSL Editor

Full Syntax highlighting, code suggest, and even a off world run time environment. plus able to test multiple scripts by building test objects with prims.

Take a Look :)

LSLForge is being actively maintained, and has most of what you describe. If there's something missing, the developer is always looking for new challenges.
