I have installed Netbeans 6.7.1 with Scala plugin as described here. I got my "Hello World" project to compile and run.

The problem I have now is that there is no documentation available for Scala functions and classes, all I get is No document found.

In the Scala Platform Manager I have both sources and javadoc not empty and directories listed there exist. What can be wrong?

    How is the scala plugin aside from documentation? The eclipse plugin is weak. – Stefan Kendall Oct 06 '09 at 19:14

    I have just started using it, too soon to tell. – Ula Krukar Oct 06 '09 at 19:19
  • The Scala plugin for IntelliJ IDEA is very good, for the record. Considering JetBrains now offers a free, open source edition of IDEA I think everyone should be using the best IDE around (IMO). Give it a try, you will be pleasantly surprised! – Jesse Webb Dec 01 '10 at 17:37
  • 0 down vote I have tried different combinations of NB 6.7, 6.9 and 7.0 with Scala 2.7, 2.8 and 2.9. From my experience, the following work nicely: Scala 2.8 (nightly build) with NB 6.8, and Scala 2.8 with NB 7 The other combinations also work but with some tweaks. – Jus12 Jul 05 '11 at 13:18

If you can upgrade to Netbeans 6.9, you could try http://scala-forum.org/read.php?22,2120,2127#msg-2127 :

I think the project location has changed several times since the start of the NetBeans plugin which causes a lot of confusion. In addition most documentations, blog entries and articles are out-of-date. I've searched myself for quite some time for a new version of the plugin.

BUT the plugin for NB 6.9 is available at Sourceforge! Just try it. It works for me with NetBeans 6.9.1 almost without problems. Though there is still plenty of room for improvements as I said.

Good Luck.
