I have been happily using the XRefactory plugin for my java browsing for a while (completion of methods, going to definitions of methods, seeing all references to a method / variable) and am frustrated by the lack of Java 1.5 support. I'd like very much to start getting my hands dirty with 1.5's new syntax, but without these 3 features I am not willing to go very far.

Is there plugins doing all these three things that works with Java 1.5 ?

Hey folks, I've isolated this issue to the XML plugin. I love the XML plugin, but when I have it on, after some amount of time, say 10 min., I notice my processor is chugging and I look at top - and there's java, at the top of the list, consuming like 95%+ cpu. I'm running Sun JDK 1.5 on linux and jEdit pre7.

Maybe it's an option in the plugin manager? Any other linux jEdit users running with the XML plugin?

PS - Did I mention I love jEdit?

When writing code I would very much like to use language-specific folding for language structures in addition to expclicit folding for logical groups of lines. Is that at all possible? If so, how?

thx alot

Hi All,

I did some searching around these forums and found only little bits and pieces of what I'm looking for, but nothing seemed all that conclusive to what I'm after so I figured I'd post a topic. If this has been answered elsewhere, I apologize for the repeat post and would hope you could point me in the right direction.

I currently work with Intellij IDEA (http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/) on a regular day-to-day basis. However I am interested in also writing Java on OSX platform and IntelliJ has the uncanny ability to suck up a LOT of memory, (and is of course, rather on the high dollar end).

Considering there are dozens and dozens of plug-ins out there, I find it very difficult to find features that suit my needs directly. Many have descriptions that seem like they might do what I want and then after installing them I find that they lack one thing or another and I'm forced to go fishing for an alternative.

I really like how IntelliJ has code completion, code highlighting, an expandable directory tree for the project I'm working in, and the ability to set up ant build and tomcat such that I can compile with the click of a button.

Does anyone use any of the aformentioned features who may be able to point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance.

The title says it all. What is jEdit Server and what does it do?

Two questions.

1. Does CodeLint actually do anything? I installed it, built antic and jlint and set the paths, and it still does nothing at all when I do Plugins -> Codelint -> Lint Source.

2. Is there a plugin that does C/C++ syntax ERROR highlighting?

3. I lied, three questions. Is there a subversion plugin in any state of active development?

Hi. I need to upload a graphic into the graphics folder in my web directory... It's a simple GIF graphic.

Can't seem to figure out how with J-edit? can it be done?

Hi there,

I want jEdit to autoreplace my inputs depending on the Buffer Mode I'm in.

Example: When in PL/SQL-mode I want jEdit automatically replace the text 'ndf' with 'NO_DATA_FOUND' the very moment I type it. How do I do that?

Thanks

Keyword highlighting is controlled by mode files specified in the file "catalog". For example: The MySQL keywords are specified in the mode file mysql.xml, and the standard SQL keywords are in tsql.xml. So when editing a MySQL file (*.sql), I want to have the MySQL and SQL keywords highlighted: But only the second one listed takes the fact,as if it overrides the previous one. How do I get both sets of keywords to be highlighted (short of manually jamming the two files into one, which surely can't be the best solution)?

Hi!

When I start jedit with this command:
java -jar jedit.jar -reuseview filename.txt

(I'm using '-reuseview' to avoid that strange default behavior that a new jedit window opens with all the files opened so far plus the new one but the window previously used stays open, too.)

This way it is loaded in the existing jedit instance and no new window opens (very good), but the jedit window itself doesn't get activated. Which drives me mad, because I always have to select it with the mouse or alt-tab for half a minute until I find it. Is there any way to have that jedit window activated? What I've been thinking of is e.g. running jedit like this:

java -jar jedit.jar -run=On_Open_File.bsh -reuseview filename.txt

where On_Open_File.bsh would activate the window. I'm a complete beginner at BeanShell, so no idea about how to do that.

I'm using KDE on Linux, so a Linux-specific solution (activating the window from the command line or whatever) would do as well.

Thank you very much!

P.S.: This select box ("Forum:") on my browser behaves a bit strangely, I wanted to select the "-Using jEdit" option, I hope I managed to.

Hi, I'm sure this came up a hundred times before and no doubt mighty Jedit is able to do it easily, so I'm sorry but I couldn't find an answer. I want to put tags around highlighted text using a keyboard shortcut. I tried Macros -> Text -> Insert tag, but using this macro I always have to type the tag name. Kind regards Martin

Hello out there !

After a severe crash i had to put up an new system, and thought that i give 4.3 pre6 a try.
Looking good, goin' good - so far.
What i am missing is the JCompile-Plugin. Nowhere to be found an the Plugin-Managers "Install" Tab.

Has it just evaporated, replaced, obsoleted or am i just beeing blind ?

I quite miss it a lot - Newb that i am, i rely very much on the "Console"-Plugin and got so used to have the "JCompiler" in the pull-down-Menue; i usually work with two floating instances of "Console" - one for "System" the other, well "JCompile".

What happened ?

By the way - meanwhile i changed back to 4.2 (cause i had work to get finished) and find myself unable to get the "Jcompile" running properly.

The message is always the same :
.
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: console.Console.setShell(Lconsole/Shell;)V
.
.

The message is quite a few lines i don't want to litter this forum with; if the complete message is needed i will put this in here later on.

When using the "compile" command within console, it goes on and on and on and on....nothing ! Not even an error-message.

As far as i see, there seems to be something wrong with the Console-Plugin (according to the message). Console seems to be unable to find the recent buffer-path automatically..hrmfp. Why ? No clue so far. When invoking "javac" by hand the path of the recent buffer is suggested within the "commando"-Box.

I tried to uninstall and reinstall the needed plugins - so far with no use.

I hope anyone stumbled across a similar (or the same) problem and was more sophisticated than me and solved it :/

Thx in advance,

I am trying to get hold of the jEdit Snippets for Ruby on Rails as seen here:

http://synthesis.sbecker.net/articles/2006/03/20/jedit-snippets-for-ruby-on-rails

But unfortunately the link appears to be down. Does anyone else have a copy of these snippets they could send to me or upload somewhere?

Many thanks,

Charles

I'm having trouble getting the XML plugin to use an XML catalog to locate the schema referenced by my document. Can anybody help? Assuming all three documents (document to be edited, referenced schema and XML catalog) are in the same folder, I would expect the following to work:

root element of edited document:
<Ace
xmlns="http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb.xsd"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>

catalog element in catalog document:
<catalog xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:entity:xmlns:xml:catalog" prefer="public">
<public publicId="http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb" uri="acedb.xsd"/>
</catalog>

If http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb.xsd is not available, I would expect the editor to look up http://www.birdstep.com/xml/schemas/acedb in the catalog and so find acedb.xsd in the current folder.

What actually happens is that the editor returns HTTP 403. I've tried endless variations on the above setup, all with no luck...

PS. I have added my catalog to the list of catalogs in the XML plug-in's options.

Hi,

I am using AntFarm to compile CodeBrowser and i get the following error, it seems that ant is trying to compile with jdk 1.4 and i have 1.5 installed on my computer, I checked in my path and classpath and i have nothing that mention jdk 1.4, i never get it installed on my computer...Anyone have any idea??

I use JEdit on Windows. For software that let's you set an external editor 'helper', I like to use JEdit, but frequently have trouble figuring out how.

In particular, I'd really like to use it with WinSCP. Can anyone give me instructions on how to do it for WinSCP? Or any general tips or instructions for doing this generally on windows with jedit?

[The fact that it's a java app instead of a normal .exe is what is at the root of the problem, I guess.]

I can't seem to find the configuration options to disable the auto-completion of quotes and parenthesis/brackets. I find it often creates the closing character at the wrong times when I'm editing. Can anyone point me to where I can change that option?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi All

I have a really dumb problem, I can already see the solution must be a simple switch somewhere, but can't find it.

After installing jEdit 4.2final on Windows (corporate environment, old Java version 1.3), I was initially able to change the window size in the usual way. Must have inadvertedly flicked some interface switch, now it always stays maximized, no matter how many times I toggle the "maximize/restore down" button in the window corner.

Anyone know how to switch it back?

I'm new to jEdit and just love how its code-folding works in ASP pages (both the VBScript and the HTML can be folded). But there's one thing I'd like to have that would make the two languages easier to differentiate:
How would I specify a different background color for VBScript in an ASP page?

Ok, I'm brand new to jEdit as of about an hour ago. I'd like to set my file associations, but cannot find the option to do that. Now, it may be staring me in the face, or maybe somewhere, perhaps obvious on this site, BUT, I can't find it... My eyeballs are getting shorter in my old age. Can someone please help me out here ??? (With the file associations that is.. lol)
