There's a Google Maps API v3 Visual Studio Intellisense Helper, which presumably works great for Visual Studio, but Aptana (based on Eclipse) uses a different JavaScript documentation format - ScriptDoc (.sdoc files). ScriptDoc is also the name of a VS utility to convert JS files with Intellisense comments into XML, just to confuse things.

I've tried adding the Intellisense files as file / global references in Aptana, but all this gives is completion for the word google and no completion or documentation in the google namespace.

Possible solutions:

  • Find someone who's already done this for Aptana. I've Google'd quite a bit already but couldn't find anything.
  • Convert the Visual Studio Intellisense Helper into a format Aptana can understand.
  • Scrape the API page and convert it into a format Aptana can understand.
