Titanium Autocomplete Eclipse

[charbarred]

This is excellent. Anyone knows how to do the same thing in Apatana 3?

There is no longer a references tab.

[jamesdlow]

@charbarred Yea it doesn't have the references tab, so I couldn't figure out how to get it to work. I started writing a full plugin, but I don't think I'll keep developing it since Appcelerator bought Aptana and have just released their Titanium Studio IDE.

This is awesome. I'm just starting to dabble in mobile development (always been a Flash/Flex developer), and having code completion really helps. Thanks for this.

Fantastic job on the code complete! It's worth noting that you can also perform the video updates directly to the Aptanta Web Studio (eclipse fork) if you are not using Eclipse directly.

Great video! You go way to fast, there are many versions of Elipse so which one do I download? I got the Java script one and when I try to create a "new profile" the option isn't there so I'm assuming I got the wrong one. I also downloaded AptanaStudio which you say we could do but since your video is only for Eclipse I'm not sure how to configure it. It's a great video for what seems like an excellent solution but not easy to follow. Any further assistance?

Hello all can someone tell me where this timobile.js is coming from? is it coming from titanium or someone else developed it to make it easier?

Also struggling to run apps using eclipse so i do al the dev on elcipse but i need to run it i need to do it through titanium developer

[jamesdlow]

@tosiuk Hi, its not from Titanium, though they link to it from their site. I've developed it, I basically take the official Titanium api.json file from Titanium and create and create a ScriptDoc header file for use with Aptana.

You still need to compile through Titanium Developer, its just helpful for editing JavaScript files in Eclipse.

@jamesdlow Do you have step-by-step instructions for creating the ScriptDoc header file? Without these instructions it is hard to take fully advantage of your otherwise excellent instructions.

[jamesdlow]

@editlift If you follow the link to my website on the description of this video you get a link to the ScriptDoc file already compiled.

[jamesdlow]

@editlift If you want to create the ScriptDoc file for yourself, I also have a link to the PHP file which you just run in the same directory as the api.json file from Titanium/Appcelerator.

Hello,

I am using the JavaScript plug in dont think it matter much but i need to how to add the Titanium API's to the library when developing in eclipse

Great job on this James. The time saved is well worth the optional donation of $5 through paypal! Thanks!

You can also use this in Visual Studio by adding

/// <reference path="<<path-to-timobile­.js>>" />

to the top of your working JS file. And visual studio is a DAMN GOOD javascript IDE

Hi James

Nice demo, but the link you have to your website isn't working

Do you have an new site where I can get the timobile.js?

[samwareactive]

i may have just answered my own question:

do a google search for timobile.js and you'll find the google project page where it is hosted (i can't post the link here because youtube won't let me!)

[jamesdlow]

@samwareactive Hi, my website was moving servers recently. I twas down for me this morning too, but it works for me now. Try again later.

[svelamanden]

Nice one..! Thanx

[dmitridb]

thanks :)

Excellent !

[jamesdlow]

Just used this for the latest iPhone/Android app I did, and it hugely speeded up development time, decreasing the number of inputted key strokes, and catching javascript compile errors before building the apps.

[Jocke72]

Excellent!

I have one wish and that's to provide your tutorial in HD.

But two fat thumbs up for your efforts. Going to try it out in Aptana.
