I'm not sure how to translate eclipse buildids to specific versions yet, so can you tell me which specific version and package of eclipse you are running?
Version: 3.7.0
There's the problem.
The BrightScript plugin was developed and informally tested under Eclipse 3.6. It does not yet work under Eclipse 3.7.
So far, the most obvious problem is that Eclipse 3.6's update sites pointed to DLTK 2, while Eclipse 3.7's update sites point to DLTK 3. The DLTK 3 API is not 100% backward compatible with DLTK 2.
I'll be working toward testing and bugfixing for Eclipse 3.7 over the next few weeks, but in the meantime, if you want to use the BrightScript plugin and get support on this thread you'll have to use Eclipse 3.6 instead.
Alternatively (note - without support yet), you can try to use Eclipse 3.7 by:
a) Uninstall the BrightScript plugin
b) Explicitly install DLTK 2.0 (only the DLTK Core Framework is needed) from the DLTK update site: http://download.eclipse.org/technology/dltk/updates
c) Re-install the BrightScript plugin
This fixes the DLTK issues, but there may be other Eclipse 3.7 specific issue that I haven't yet encountered.
Cheers
