Edit a CSL file in Eclipse

mtstle
I'm trying to ease into Eclipse as my all around IDE. Does anyone know how to load and edit a CSL file or any sort of xml file really, into an XML editor, in Eclipse; the extensible Open Source IDE. Regards, mtcstle

    I'm not sure how well Eclipse does as an XML editor (for which you don't really benefit from an IDE that much) but have you looked at the advice here:
    http://superuser.com/questions/700204/how-can-i-open-an-xml-file-with-the-built-in-xml-editor-in-eclipse
    and here
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4590119/how-do-i-view-xml-in-eclipse-with-simple-syntax-highlighting
    does that not work?

    You should then look for a way to real-time validate relax ng XML schemas, which I don't think is well supported on Eclipse (but maybe there's some extension that does that well now).

    adamsmith, neither of these were very helpful, they both assume you have the default XML editor installed and I don't think I do because I have the version tailored for C/C++. But thanks anyway, you encouraged me to post in Stackoverflow and the Eclipse community forum. I'll probably get tips there.
