Javascript plugin for Eclipse

I waas looking for a Javascript editor and came across JSEclipse plugin from Interakt. Its a beautiful plugin and even has a all-features-enabled free version :).

The best things I like about JSEclipse are:
  • Code completion for JavaScript function and classes.
  • Code completion for JavaDoc.
  • Function and class names are displayed in the Outline panel for the currently open file.
  • Open declaration i.e. the famous F3 functionality
  • Error reporting
  • Warning reporting
  • Code wrap
  • Support for major JavaScript libraries
  • Code completion uses Rhino for better accuracy
  • Use of JSDoc and inline parameter comments to detect parameter type
  • Suggest parameters to be filled
  • Project dependent code completion
  • Reads all classes in current project
  • Reads classes in currently opened files
  • Scan current file for words
  • Reads XML files for class definitions
  • Add your own XML with class definitions
However, it works on Eclipse 3.1.x versions only. I have multiple Eclipse installations. It didnt work on Eclipse 3.0 ("Editor could not be initialized."). However with Eclipse 3.1.2, it was a breeze to work with it. Either create an Eclipse project, or add JS files to your existing project, and you are ready to go!

It appears to work based on usage - it remembers how an object is used and completes based on that.

Have u guys (and gals) used any other editor for Javascript? Do share your experiences here.

Installing Bugzilla on Windows

Bugzilla is the Bugs/Issues Tracking Tool from The Mozilla Organization. Version 2.18 is the latest stable release. There are couple of resources which guide a User installing Bugzilla on a Unix/linux machine. However, this entry describes a way to install Bugzilla on a Windows machine (W2K to be precise). This document guides you step by step through the installation process. First, get Administrative access to the machine on which you want to install Bugzilla. It should be a simple step. Usually, Users are given Administrative rights on Windows machine. However, if you dont have, contact your Administrator. Get Bugzilla Then download the Bugzilla from http://bugzilla.org/download.html . There are two ways of gettng it - through CVS or direct downloading the tar file. Remember there are no Zip files. However, any zip utility should be able to untar the Bugzilla. I download the tar file and untarred it using WinZip. I placed the untarred 'bugzilla' directory in my c: drive. So...

What are the different type of JDBC drivers?

There are four types of JDBC database driver: The JDBC/ODBC bridge driver (Type 1) A piece of native C-code that translates a JDBC call to an ODBC call. Use this driver for development, not for industrial-strength application environments. Note that you have to have an ODBC database driver manager + an ODBC database driver installed on the server in addition to the JDBC/ODBC bridge. Though useful for learning JDBC and quick testing, bridging solutions are rarely appropriate for production environments. Native API partly java driver (Type 2) A piece of native C-code that translates a java JDBC call to a native database call level API. Use this driver for development and deployment. Due to its native code, this driver can only be used by Java Applications with full computer access (i.e. not Applets). Type 2 drivers generally provide the best performance, but they require the installation of native libraries on clients that need to access the database. Applications using Type 2 drivers ...
