Any way to provide Eclipse auto error-discovery feature in Vim/Emacs?

Question

I know that Vim/Emacs offers some enticing mouse-free capabilities for typing out programs. I have tried both and I love these facilities. But when coding Java, especially when using the libraries extensively, the auto-complete and error-highlighting features of Eclipse are too useful to be set aside. Is there a way to combine the best of both worlds?

Answer 1

maybe something like this: Eclim ?

Answer 2

Vim JDE (script) does this for vi, Eclim tries to make vi do everything Eclipse does in that sense, but also requires you to run Eclipse in headless mode while you're using vi.

For Emacs, you can try JDEE.

Good luck!
