Class reference errors in Eclipse with Joomla

[Mapor]

I am developing Joomla in Eclipse. But Eclipse gives more than 12000 problems because it cannot find class references such as JProfiler or JFactory. Probably I have to do something with Include Paths, but sofar I was unsuccesful.

If you have the CMS repo checked out locally, run the `build/stubGenerator.php` script and stub classes for everything that was renamed at 3.8 will be created.

IDEs cannot resolve classes that do not exist in the project space or language specification.  All of the classes that were moved to PHP namespaces in 3.8 do not exist anymore, but for B/C are aliased at runtime through PHP's autoloader.  No IDE is able to parse our libraries/classmap.php file to automatically handle this mapping, so you need to generate a file that has these classes so the IDE can "fix" itself.

Thanks for your reply. Where can I get that script, and how do I run it?

Thanks.
