INSTALLATION

I highly recommend using VAM (vim-addon-manager): http://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager Then put into your ~/.vimrc: call scriptmanager#Activate(["vim-haxe"])

alternative way (Pathogen, manual, ...): See vim-haxe-addon-info.txt See key "dependencies". Install all those plugins in some (manual?) way. You'll find all those plugins on my github page.

If you have any trouble contact me.

Use to get completion (based on HaXe) Example: this. -> this.addChild(

Use to get completion (based on tags. This completes both: class names and functions)

Example: gC -> haxe.io.File.getContents(

Use to define a local command

place cursor on error line in Quikfix Window then type i to add a missing flash import

vim-haxe will ask you to checkout sources for both: haxe and flash_develop lazily.

CONFIGURATION:

TODO, get a list of options by: grep -r vim_haxe .

let g:vim_haxe_haxe_src_dir='directory' if you don't like the default PLUGIN_ROOT.'/haxe-src'

ctags language support see:

http://haxe.org/com/ide

Vim will then automatically checkout haxe sources and tag the std .hx files for you

EXPLANATION

QUICKFIX DETAILS:

See vim-addon-actions. (Eg use :ActionOnBufWrite or to assign an action such as compile to -js -neko -cpp -php The fastest way to do so is just type "hxml" or "cpp" or "neko" or "php" and the list will be filtered. If you select the hxml target you can choose a custom target. c-tags will be generated for you automatically - and tags are added to &tags depending on target which is the reason that --next will never be supported. When using "hxml" you have to choose the .hxml file completion depends on (tab completion supported). The other default targets write a tmp.hxml temporary file.

Use snipmate and snippets/haxe_hxml.snippets snippets to write .hxml files faster.

Additional notes: This VimL lib also contains a very basic .hx file parser. At the beginning I based some of the completions on it. But it was too slow. Using tagfiles and HaXe only now. Its still used to get the package name.
