Eclipse Community ForumsNo Outline Information for Lua Files
https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/mv/msg/369376/901467/#msg_901467
This is doubly odd as the project is a mix of Lua and XML, and the XML files are outlined properly despite there being no XML editor on offer.
I am quite willing to believe that the problem is my own stupidity, but I have been scrathcing my head over this on and off for days now and can't progress.
However the Lua files are syntax coloured and the outline frame it white with no message, presumably meaning that it can show an outline but there's nothing to show. Also, when I try to use 'Open Declaration' on an identifier it pings mw and does nothing. I'm making sure to use global variables to test this.
It's possible I have added the files to the project wrongly as I've been using Eclipse for only a couple weeks. I used File/Import/General/File System. But I can't a better way to do it and the documentation seems to say I've done the right thing]]>Rob Dixon2012-08-12T20:06:43-00:00Re: No Outline Information for Lua Files

Unfortunately, the current outline is quite limited. Only two things are handled by the outline :
* first level local variables and functions ("first level" means locals that have file scope)
* Any module, function and types commented using luadoc
If you don't have neither of this, your outline must be empty.
