I'm relatively new to the scala language (and programming in general). I recently installed the JDK and the Scala IDE (for eclipse). The setup went smoothly, but I encountered an issue upon trying to run a Hello World application. When I attempt to "Run As" the only available options are "Java Applet" and "Java Application". How do I proceed in trying to run as a "Scala Application"? Many thanks in advance!
Run As
-> Run Configurations
Scala Application
from Run Configurations
windowMain Class
: (for eg: if HelloWorld.scala is the object having main method, give it as HelloWorld)Make sure you have done all of the following steps:
New -> Scala project
. If you have already created or imported the project, you can right-click on the project's root directory, then choose Scala and then Add Scala Nature. Alternatively, if it's an sbt
project, you can use the sbt-eclipse plugin for sbt to generate an Eclipse project configuration for your existing project, and then reload the project in Eclipse.Try to click right button on the Scala object with main
method (not on the root project element). Then the "Run as... Scala application" menu item appears.
