If Eclipse can handle your language, then the eclim plugin will provide renaming, real autocomplete, etc. within vim. It just runs eclipse in the background and exposes functionality to vim.


Thanks for this! This should help out when I finally start hacking something for Android. I've been using vim for simple java projects before, and while NERDTree helps a bit with the forced split over too many files -- it always felt a bit painful.

I did try a few literate programming variants -- but it required a lot of discipline to keep the abstractions in the right place -- literate programming makes procedual/classical programming really efficient and easy -- but all that magic "transclusion" makes it easy to write something that is readable and structured in it's "natural" literate source form, but is pretty bad object oriented code.
