Editor/IDE plugins |
|
Below you can find syntax highlight definitions and other plugins for text editors and
IDE-s that help you working with FreeMarker.
We encourage everybody to develop and send syntax highlight definitions or other
plugins for his/her favorite editor or IDE.
If you know of another product that should appear
here, drop us a
note.

Part of the JBoss Tools Project. Install like this:
In Eclipse, "Help" / "Eclipse Marketplace...", search for "JBoss Tools", "Install".
A tree of checkboxes will appear, uncheck all (by unchecking the root) except "FreeMarker IDE".
(On old Eclipse you may have to use the
JBoss Tools download page instead.)
If the plugin comes with a different FreeMarker version than the one your app works with, it
will mark the usage of too fresh language features as errors, or the other way around. To fix this:
Find freemarker*.jar under <yourHome>/.eclipse/.
Exit Eclipse, and overwrite it with the jar you want (the file name must remain the same, with the
now false version number in it).
Note that downgrading or changes in the 1st or 2nd version number can (in theory)
break the plugin.
