Re: Unable to edit Scala files in Eclipse...?

Hi Vijay,

This sounds like a problem of not using Java 1.5. The plugin is only supported 
(and will only 
work under) Java 
1.5. This is a big problem, and there doesn't seem to be a way in Eclipse to 
prevent users 
from installing the 
plugin if they are running Java 1.4. I'll try to improve the documentation 
somehow so its 
more obvious (maybe 
put it in the title of the download).

Thanks!

Sean
