Not a valid command: eclipse (similar: help, alias) about sbt-eclipse HOT 6 CLOSED

Looks like you did not install the plugin. Did you create a global plugin project (build.sbt file) in the directory ~/.sbt/plugins where ~ is your home directory (not sure where that is on Win)? If so, did you restart the sbt session of your project where you want to use the eclipse command?

from sbt-eclipse.

I have a folder C:\Users.sbt\plugins with a build.sbt file, which contains the code snippet mentioned on the readme page.

Then I followed these instructions (in a different directory though):
tmp$ mkdir test
tmp$ cd test
test$ sbt

eclipse create-src skip-root

Quitting and restarting the sbt session between the last two steps did not make any difference

from sbt-eclipse.

I don't think that C:\Users is your home directory. Open a REPL or enter console in a sbt session, then execute System.getProperty("user.home"). Under Mac OSX this yields:

tmp$ scala
Welcome to Scala version 2.9.0.1 (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, Java 1.6.0_24).
Type in expressions to have them evaluated.
Type :help for more information.

scala> System.getProperty("user.home")
res0: java.lang.String = /Users/hseeberger

This is not an issue and is even not related to sbteclipse in particular. Please continue, if necessary, on the sbt mailing list.

I beg to differ:

C:>scala
Welcome to Scala version 2.9.0.1 (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, Java 1.6.0_26).
Type in expressions to have them evaluated.
Type :help for more information.

scala> System.getProperty("user.home")
res0: java.lang.String = C:\Users\reimer

from sbt-eclipse.

So you have a folder C:\Users\reimer.sbt\plugins and in that you have a build.sbt?
If so, it is still an sbt issue that this is not picked up, because that would then happen to any plugin, not only sbteclipse. Therefore please go for the sbt mailing list.

Did you every figure out what the problem was?
