Erlang Plugin Version 1 for NetBeans 6.7 Released

I’m pleased to announce Erlang plugin (ErlyBird) version 1 for NetBeans 6.7 is released.

NetBeans 6.7 RC3 or above is a requirement.

What’s new:

• It’s rewritten in Scala instead of Java
• More reliable instant rename
• Display extracted document information from source comment when doing auto-completion.

To download, please go to: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=192439&package_id=226387

To install:

• Open NetBeans, go to “Tools” -> “Plugins”, click on “Downloaded” tab title, click on “Add Plugins…” button, choose the directory where the Erlang plugin are unzipped, select all listed *.nbm files, following the instructions.
• Make sure your Erlang bin path is under OS environment PATH, you can also check/set your OTP path: From [Tools]->[Erlang Platform], fill in the full path of your ‘erl.exe’ or ‘erl’ file in “Interpreter”, for instance: “C:/erl/bin/erl.exe”. Or open the “Brows” dialog to locate the erlang installation.
• When you open/create an Erlang project first time, the OTP libs will be indexed. Take a coffee and wait, the indexing time varies from 10 to 30 minutes depending on your computer.

Feedback and bug reports are welcome.
