Enabling Syntax Highlight for Velocity Files in Eclipse

Posted by edgars on August 30, 2006 at 12:11 PM | Comments (5)

Hi Forks,

I've been working with a new Greenbox module, which will allow Eclipse developers to use Greenbox Framework easier.

I that worked, I did a really nice thing, I associate a *.vm file with Java Editor, and in a few seconds I had Velocty Editor with All syntax highlight necessary to create and edit Velocity templates for Greenbox.

Take a look how to Enable it on your enviroment:

I hope this could be as useful as it was to me!

  • Edgar, the word is syntax.

  • Hi, my friend at work pointed me to this excellent resource called Eclipse Magazine. Thought I should point this out for the good of the larger community. The inaugural issue of the magazine is available for FREE. You can download it from here: http://www.eclipsemag.net/ecm/ecmservices/psecom,id,5,nodeid,4.html. Once you register, you also have FREE access to the magazine for the months of September, October, and November 2006.

  • Hi Edgar,
    I have been studying plugin-development in eclipse to do the same thing but I prefer the greenbox approach. My plan was to use the eclipse-apt to initate & execute code generation but I really like the concept behind greenbox. I will like to be involved in building eclipse-plugin for greenbox. I have applied to be a developer on this greenbox team. I look forward to working with the rest of the team.
