Hi guys,

I am reading the buckminster book. In section "Editing RMAP" there is a last paragraph stating the following:

to help you with automatic code completion, validation, and valid attribute values (see the section
called “Configuring Eclipse for XML Editing”).

This section exists, but says nothing about how to configure Eclipse for XML Editing.

Thanks for pointing this out. 
Over time, the importance of this has been greatly reduced as there are now EMF based editors for all artifacts. I think these should be documented instead of the more general how to edit XML artifacts with Eclipse, but I am happy to include how to do it the XML way if someone wants to document the required steps to perform XML editing supported by the Buckminster schemas.

Hi Henrik,

No I agree that would not be needed. Maybe just remove the section from the document. Is this document crowd-sourced somewhere?

Unfortunately no.
