Installation appears to be incomplete

I previously posted this on the Bitbucket tracker. Sorry for the duplicate, I'm not sure if it belongs here or there...

Using the Indigo J2EE distribution, I installed Xtext from the Xtext update site, then this plugin from your update site following the installation instructions. I added the Xtext nature to my project when asked by the IDE. I have installed Node.js and CoffeeScript, the CoffeeScript command line is working.

The editor is associated with .coffee files and opens them. However:

  • there is no syntax highlighting except for keywords like 'class', 'extends' etc.
  • parsing doesn't work, I get lots of warnings and errors about references not resolved and 'no viable alternative at input'. A simple script like the one from issue #4 is enough to reproduce this.
  • nothing is compiled even though the compiler is turned on in the preferences (using the default settings). There is no CoffeeScript builder or similar under 'Builders'.

I tried this with Xtext 2.2 (the current version) and 2.1, each time with all update site sub-elements, same result. Is there anything else that I need to install? Later I tried downloading the Xtext Eclipse Indigo distribution from xtext.itemis.com (eclipse-SDK-3.7.1-Xtext-2.2.1-win32.zip) to see if it's an Xtext issue. Same result. Do you have any ideas what I might be missing?

I faced exactly the same problems. There is no syntax highlighting and parsing doesn't work. I use Eclipse SDK Version: 3.7.1, installed xtext 2.2. I use Windows, if it's matter.

I'm sorry, guys, I'm quite busy at the moment. Syntax highlighting and parsing are supposed to work. Compilation is not yet. I'll look into this issue as soon as I have some time for it.

Fine, thanks for reaction. I might not know how to configure eclipse exactly? (added your plugin and xtext)
