I'm using macroparadise to generate methods and case classes in my project (the macros themselves are defined in a separate project from my core files where I use them).
Everything compiles and runs as expected, but Eclipse is unable to resolve variables and methods generated by my macros. However, when I close and re-open Eclipse, it identifies everything perfectly; I can hover over the classes and methods and get the correct info. But, as soon as I change anything, or even just close and reopen the file referencing generate methods, Eclipse underlines all the generated variables and methods and tells me "not found: value {name}" (where {name} is the var name).
Update
I've isolated the behavior to cases like the following:
- I start with an annotated object A in one file, and an object B that uses A.hello in another file.
- I compile A's file, which adds method "hello" to object A.
- Everything works fine, until(!) I reopen the file containing object A.
Question: What does Eclipse do when I open a file? Does it attempt to reindex a class based on the written file rather than the compiled one?
End Update
How does Eclipse resolve variables? Is it looking at the class files in my target/ folder? I have the *.class files for all my generated code, so if Eclipse is looking at those, these variables should actually exist.
Has anyone gotten Eclipse to resolve these variables properly? I tried IntelliJ IDEA, but IDEA can't resolve anything using implicit conversions and macros (I followed directions I found online with no luck).
