Cannot make it work on Windows #23

Open mm-tfx opened 8 years ago

mm-tfx commented 8 years ago

I would like to use this atom package on my Windows machine. However it seems like it is not working. What can I do to debug and make it work?

it is working for me on windows 7. If you are not seeing the Settings option for the plugin, then make sure you install elixir and may be enable the elixir plugins(autocomplete-elixir and language elixir). I am using latest atom beta version. If this does not work, try the atom-erlang-autocomplete as that does not require elixir.

I have installed Elixir and those two packages for Atom (autocomplete-elixir and language-elixir). Still this does not seem to work. I am trying with built-in functions but nothing happens. I can use some predefined snippets like case or fun but nothing more. I have tried atom-erlang-autocomplete as well but this also doesn't seem to work. I have created issue there as well.

Added: elixir autocomplete works as it should. I think the problem is with Windows erl console.

Did you add erlang to your system path? Also, the plugin is built for a previous atom release, so do you see the red "bug" icon at the bottom of the atom status bar? If so, click on the bug icon and will open a page that has a "build" button which you need to click.

I have rebuilt this for new version and this helped (Thanks for this tip) - well at least something has started to work. It works for lists, gen_server, gen_fsm, gen_sctp, gen_tcp, maps and some more but it does not work for io, io_lib, binary. That is a little bit strange for me. Is there a key kombination for activation?

It works fine for me even for io and rest of libraries. I am using erlang 19. There are no combo keys like in Vim to trigger auto completion.

How can I check why it does not work for several libraries? I have also Erlang 19 installed. BTW The same behaviour is on my Ubuntu computer.
