Nb. the following is *only* relevant to people who want to help out
with developement of the Scala IDE for Eclipse, not to people who just
want to use it.

For the development time workspace (ie. the outer, hosting one) that's
true. Unfortunately you do still need a config.ini for the runtime
workspace (ie. the inner, hosted one). The section "Creating a
config.ini file" here,

  http://lampsvn.epfl.ch/trac/scala/wiki/EclipsePlugin

should get you going.

Great to hear that you want to work on JUnit integration! If you can
cope with the pain of the current state of trunk, I'd very much
appreciate it if you worked there rather than on the 2.7.x branch ...
it'll make it a lot easier to integrate anything you can contribute to
the next release.

Cheers,


Miles
