recently I've been getting a weird error message whenever I press '>' (i.e. shift and /)...

Everything works fine though, the angle bracket is ouputted, so the error is more of an annoyance then anything, but it is really annoying. Anybody have any ideas?

This has been broken (at least for me) since 4.3pre8 or so. I was hoping that 4.3pre10 would fix it, but I'm disappointed to discover that I still can't use $ to match the end of a line. Since first encountering this problem, I've been matching on newline characters. It's not perfect; for instance, it doesn't work on the last line in a file. Is there a better workaround or fix I can try?

I rely on autosave. I ordinarily don't manually save my text files in jedit at all, until I need to open those files in other programs, since jedit automatically saves my changes. If jedit or my computer crashes, it's no problem, since when I restart jedit, it automatically finds the autosave files and offers to load them.

However, this safety feature recently failed catastrophically. I'd had jedit running for a couple weeks, and had made many changes to some files. Then my computer crashed, and when I restarted it and started jedit back up, I discovered that one of the autosave files, for a file to which which I had been making many changes every day, was empty! I lost a lot of irreplaceable data as a result.

I investigated, and found the problem. I had pasted some text which included an umlaut letter into the file, and jedit couldn't save it using the particular encoding which I had selected (windows-1251). As a result, it wrote a blank autosave file, and from then on, all of the text which I entered was stored only in memory, which was a disaster waiting to happen. I confirmed that this was the problem by creating a new file, pasting the offending letter, and trying to save it; I got this error:

I/O Error
c:\Users\Andrew\Documents\test.txt:
The following I/O operation could not be completed:
Cannot save: java.io.CharConversionException: Failed to encode the character
'ä' (U+E4) at column 1 in line 5 with the encoding "windows-1251".

It's true that that letter can't be encoded in that encoding. However, silently failing to autosave the file is a major fault of jedit. Furthermore, when I paste the offending letter into the file and then wait for the autosave, jedit writes "Input/output complete" in the status bar as usual, making me believe that the autosave was successful!

Automatically switching the autosave encoding to unicode (and notifying me of this fact) would be one solution to the problem. Another would be simply to display an error message alerting me to the fact that the autosave in my chosen encoding failed. But silently failing is absolutely the wrong thing to do.

A text editor's absolute highest priority, with no exceptions, is: never lose (or corrupt) the user's data. Sorry for ranting, but this is a bug which should not be allowed to remain.
It is present in both pre9 and pre10.

Jedit has a useful feature that if it crashes (or my system crashes), then the next time I start jedit, it will see my autosave files, tell me that it crashed, and offer to load the autosave files instead of the manually saved (old) versions.

When I first installed it, I had it assigned as the default program to handle txt files. However, I discovered that when I already had it running, and had some unsaved (but autosaved) files open, then if I tried to open a txt file from windows explorer, then a second instance of jedit would start, and tell me that it thought it had crashed (because it found autosave files), and offer to load the autosave files. This worried me because it apparently was unaware of (or unable to coordinate with) the instance of jedit which was already running, and I was afraid that in that case, one instance might clobber file changes made by the other instance. To be safe, I changed the default program for txt files to wordpad, to prevent a second instance of jedit from starting when I open txt files from windows explorer.

Why does jedit not recognize that the presence of autosave files is due to an already-running other instance of jedit rather than due to jedit having crashed?

In order to avoid the problem, is there a way I can set jedit as the default program for txt files but have it open those files in the already-running instance rather than open a new instance?

I'm getting null pointer exceptions. I tried upgrading to the latest jvm and latest jedit, but that didn't solve the problem. Here are some logs from before and after I upgraded.

(BTW I can't put this info in the bug tracking system because I'd have to create a sourceforge account. I already created a jedit.org account yesterday and had to wait until today to get login info emailed to me; don't want to create another account somewhere else and keep waiting.)

This is apparently the same bug as #1584436. http://www.jedit.org/CHANGES43.txt says it was fixed in 4.3pre10: "Scrolling up broken after content removing (#1584436) (Matthieu Casanova)". But it apparently wasn't fixed; I'm still getting the error, and somebody else reported it again as #1763932. The changelog for /jEdit/trunk/org/gjt/sp/jedit/textarea/TextArea.java says #1584436 was fixed in revision 8999. The diff to the previous version shows that all that was changed in this particular file was that a null pointer check and the corresponding error logging were deleted. They included the comment "FIXME - we need to reset the state of this window so that it has the right dimensions again." The offending line of code (both before and after the change), which is causing the null pointer exception, is attempting to dereference a pointer (named "point") which was returned by the function offsetToXY, but offsetToXY is returning null, apparently because screenLine is -1. Hopefully somebody who is familiar with the code can investigate what went wrong.

I just upgraded to pre10 (hoping to get a fix for the cpu-goes-to-100% problem), and suddenly C-`, which used to switch to the most-recently-visited buffer, no longer does anything. I'm pretty sure this was a core key-binding, as I think I learned it from the startup hints. Since I tend to switch between two buffers a lot, this was an easier (and less carpal-inducing) alternative to the RecentBufferSwitch plugin...

Just switched to pre version 10 and now my perl colorization is screwed up.
Where do I look for the formatting controls to switch back to the version used in 9?
I have tried switching to the perl.xml in modes from 9 and that isn't working.
Any ideas?
The issue seems to be the handling of / inside a quoted string.
Specifically when I have a string that contains a URL things get all screwed up.
so
my $url = "http://www.jedit.org";
messes things up for me.
I can't seem to find anything else on the error, so any and all help is appreciated.
PS,
I have also submitted as a bug, but I could use some help going back to how it was before so that it is more useable for me.

Thanks

I can't type an uppercase 'C' when I do it does nothing and beeps when I press another key, after that I can type ok. I noticed when I go to "Shortcuts" in the configuration and attempt to press Shift + c it says its already taken by "C prefix". Any ideas what may be causing this, I'm getting tired of copying and pasting uppercase C from Text Edit.

(this is a repost from FreeMind forum on SourceForge... I really need help!)

I do hope the FreeMind patrons/artisans can help me! I've only recently had a machine with enough RAM/free cycles to consider really using Java apps seriously. I've taken a shine to Eclipse (natch!) FreeMind and more recently jEdit.

So today when I went to open a .mm file I created on Friday (it's Monday night now) I was distraught to find FreeMind wouldn't load. I figured I must've done something wrong. But as I clicked and clicked away at the dock icon which had worked fine for months (!) I realized I hadn't changed anything -- my guess is and automatic OS X update is the culprit, and I install those almost without a thought.

To back up my "something changed and I didn't do it" theory, I tried running jEdit. Same deal. Basically, the icons for these apps will bounce in the dock to indicate they are launching, and then simply stop, indicating a failed launch. BUT! No error code, no message of any kind.

To further confuse things, Eclipse is loading fine.

I've tried upgrading to the most recent Java (apparently SE 6? Or J2SE 1.5... I've always hated Java numbering schemes), playing with the various Java Preferences apps in OS X (I have 4 installed, one for each of the previously-mentioned versions and one for 1.4.2, one for 1.3.1...) and nothing. I've tried wiping out the /usr/bin/java dir but can not install older versions (I'm sure there are just other dirs I'm missing to allow for a clean install, but I worry about Apple Auto updater even after that...)

Has anyone else had this issue? I'm really pulling out my hair here!

The problem started with Xubuntu 7.04. If I start JEdit with the -nosettings switch then JEdit starts right up. I've also removed and added plugins with no effect. These lines are problematic: [notice] jEdit: An error occurred while connecting to the jEdit server instance. [notice] jEdit: This probably means that jEdit crashed and/or exited abnormally I've never noticed any messages indicating that JEdit closes incorrectly?

I downloaded a ubuntu iso yesterday and somehow, I'm not sure how, when I start jEdit I now get an I/O error message -

The following I/O operations could not be completed
E:\downloads\ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso
There is insufficient Java heap memory to complete this request.Try increasing the maximum heap size.

Not surprising, since the iso file is about 700Mb.

But my problem is that I don't know what needs to be done to get rid of the message.

Thanks in advance

I installed this in hope of being able to work with python in jedit (i need something to check for errors) on the "error list" window it only shows

"1: Python Source Insepctor launch error = IOException when building process : CreateProcess: ....." then theres a long string of different file locations then at the very end it says error=2

I think something is setup wrong but I went through every menu to see what setting might be wrong to cause this and I couldn't find anything. This shows up even if the file is empty or if all it says is print 'hi' or something.

Any ideas? or alternatives to python error checking in jedit?

I'm getting an error after I do a find/replace in files. Is jEdit still under development? Is a final 4.3 version on the way?

I get this exception when I try to quit:

Hi All

I am a noob with jEdit and quite impressed with it. I have it installed in both Fiesty Fawn and M$ XP.

All seemed well at first then while working out an issue with a user on Pidgin the CPU locked up & I noticed the fan going full. Power KILL was the only way left available to recover control.

I've since paid more attention and it seems I get between 30 & 10 minutes operation of jEdit before I notice the fan and task manager reporting 100% CPU usage. Memory usage seems to remain at normal levels.

Terminating jEdit restored CPU usage to normal levels immediately & I can reload with out issues. Doing this several times today I began to be aware the runtimes were getting shorter. Finally it got down to under 10 minutes.

At this point I re-installed this time ensuring all the install options were included (Complete Install). I also selected to install the launcher that starts at boot.

In approximately 12 minutes I noticed the CPU at 100% and the fan running. I saved my work and exited the program. This time the CPU usage remained at 100%. I then killed the jEdit (sp) process. CPU usage returned to normal levels and I built the config data block I'll include near the end of this post. ~30 minutes with no CPU issues.

Are others seeing this behavior?

My Config:
Processor thread over run
jEdit version 4.3Pre9

HI, I can't start my jedit appliction in my fedora os.

Error I get is

GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
Exception in thread "main" GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
GC Warning: Out of Memory! Returning NIL!
*** Catastrophic failure while handling uncaught exception.

what shall I do?

thanks in advance, Patrik

I am running Jedit 4.2 on a Suse system. I think it is running with JRE 1.6 (That's the jre on my path), but I'm not sure how to confirm which version jedit is running with.

My machine is configured with a Dvorak key mapping. This works fine when I'm typing into jedit buffers, but my shortcut bindings seem to use a qwerty layout. For example, us dvorak users get into the habit of physically hitting Ctrl+I instead of Ctrl+C for copy (our 'I' key normally types a 'C'), but that gets literally interpreted as Ctrl-I.

I realise this might be desired behaviour for some users (especially those new to dvorak), but is there a way of having keyboard shortcuts interpreted the same way as normal keystrokes (the way every other app works)?

I haven't used Jedit in a while but I needed it yesterday and every time I typed a 'C' or an 'a' the computer beeped at me. I could see that there was a 'C' or an 'a' at the bottom as if I was typing in some sort of key combination and it was awaiting the next key. How do I fix this?

I just upgraded to 4.3 and I have the same problem

I am running Java 1.5 on Linux

Thanks

Hello,

I'm back to using jEdit after a couple of years away from coding. I wanted to use SQL plugin, so I set up a MySQL connection in Project Viewer plugin. At first it works, but after some time the SQL plugin seem to loose the connection setting - it disappears from the "Choose the server" dialogue. The connection remains in Project Viewer.

Please advice.

Hi all,

jEdit has been broken for me for the longest time, but I'd like to get it back up on its feet so I can play with it again.

I'm running the latest 4.3pre and on startup (and every other second as the program continues) I keep getting a "bsh.InterpreterError: null variable value" error window popping up (stack trace pasted below).

A similar error pops up when I hit backspace or enter in the editor. Try and browse through the jEdit preferences (they're all empty for me) ... pretty much any action I take is hosed.

I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm on an Intel Mac (10.4.9), Java 1.5, my environment vars are set appropriately (JDK_HOME, PATH), I've blown out my ~/.jedit folder over and over, nothing I do works.

Has anybody ran into this problem before? I searched on the boards + mailing list but didn't find anything.

Thanks,
-steve
