[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] Re: javascript dependency

[Dave Connerth <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Matthew,

I turned off JavaScript Syntax Validation in 
Window/Preferences/Validation.  This does not really fix the issue, but 
at least if you have a real error it would not be mixed in with hundreds 
of erroneous errors on the Problems View.

I am trying to set up a Drupal development environment using PDT.  I am 
hoping that there is some way to configure the drupal.js and jquery.js 
libraries on the one of the Eclipse paths - I have tried but nothing 
seems to work.

Do you know of any solutions for this issue?

Thanks,



Dave
