Re: [vimplugin-devel] Some News

Hi,
 I think making vimplugin to use eclim is not that good idea, or
atleast following the way eclim implemented the things. Their case is
different, they have to implement each and every eclipse functionality
inside vim. Eclim people implemented the code for code completion
[abstractcompletioncommand.java i guess] and some other commands. they
also have vim scripts for displaying the data. We can just simply use
the code of the commands those we want implement. I'm trying to
implement code completion part by taking the code from the above
mentioned file.

Correct me, if I'm wrong or if you people have some other ideas.
