I was going to download the JCompiler and Console plug-ins so I don't have to open a command line to compile and run my program. But during the download I got I/O error and I don't know why. I'm assuming the download failed. How can I tell if I have these plug-ins installed?

Hi,

I've just started using JEdit - excellent product!

Is there any way to make the "Search and Replace" dialog dockable? It would definitely making editing multiple buffers easier.

Thx,

Frank.

I'm certain I had this problem fixed once, but I can't find whatever documentation I used. I've just come back to JEdit from Netbeans, so I can't quite recall what changes I made. I'm using JEdit 4.2Final.

If I'm typing a Java file, and I enter a Javadoc, followed by a class or method declaration, when I press <enter> on the line, it indents to the * on the javadoc. Example:

I type:

/**
 * javadoc comment
 */
public class MyClass {

Jedit automatically indents to:

/**
 * javadoc comment
 */
 public class MyClass {

inserting the space at the beginning of the line. I don't want this to happen. Can anybody tell me what I need to do to fix it; I suspect I'll have to edit the java mode file, but I'm not overly familiar with the syntax. I looked at the java mode, but nothing popped out to solve this issue.

Thanks,
Dusty

I downloaded JBuilder but it looks pretty complicated for me and I may have to switch to something simpler. I might download a text editor like jEdit and then install that along with Java 1.4. Is that all I need to do then to start writing programs? When I install jEdit will it automatically link itself to Java 1.4 or do I have to go through some manual configuration process to link the two together?

And what is a plug-in? Do I need to install any plug-ins? Or can I use jEdit just the way it comes in the download?

Hi there,

I have been watching this community for a few days and looks like no serious communication takes place. I as a lot of other people am looking for sharing knowledge and information on using jEdit.

Is there any other place out there where this is done ?

regards

I wonder if there is a way to save HyperSearch results in a separate file.

If you find the icon for the move / drop operation gets in the way and obscures where you want to drop selection try this solution:
This is using j2re1.4.2_06 - the problem may not exist in other versions
Find file "motif_MoveDrop32x32.gif"
in
/usr/java/j2re1.4.2_06/lib/images/cursors/motif_MoveDrop32x32.gif
or wherever your jre folder is
Open in gimp (may have to change read/write permission)
Select white area - leave just little bit of white around edge
Make it transparent
Save.

This will, I expect change icon, in all java apps.
You could also try editing "cursors.properties"
I'm sure there might be better wys but this seems to work!

Is there a way to not display the "." period at the end of each line. I find it very hard to edit anything with jedit because the language I use already uses periods at the end of line. Having to periods at the end kind of throws me off. Any help appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi, I know there is a way for Jedit to outline the matching tag with any color given, but is there a way to have it set a background color for the matching tag instead of just outlining it?

Thanks.

Is there a way to move jedit's profile directory under windows from "C:\Documents and Settings\username\.jedit" to another location ?
Since the profile space is restricted to 20 MB in our network, I've got to (partially) delete it before I can log off.

I have problem when using javac. Errors from javac are recognized as warnings in ErrorList plugin. JCompiler doesn't have that problem.

With jikes there is a problem in showing errors in edit pane. Whole line is underlined as error, but it should underline just a part of line that jikes is showing like this: D:/work/SomeClass.java:105:22:105:34:
1. number is beginning line, 2. is beginning column, 3. ending line and 4. number is ending line of error.

Hi,
although I chose "Indent with: Soft (emulated with spaces) tab" in the global options, the smart indent uses tabs. Why?
Thank you
Massimo

the JCompiler plugin provides a command to compile a java file, that I can associate to a button.
But how do I create a button to execute the current java file ?
I can't believe that I have to write the "java ..." command in the console to do that.
I've look at the FAQ, I've not found this question: noboby uses Jedit to develop java applications ?

I do not know how to see Console Error patterns for Python 2.4. I do not know even regexp! I have searched this message board for answer but did not find him, just unanswered questions. So help us please!

Error and worning look like this:
D:\> python $f

__ means leading spaces.

I am sorry for my not good English.
Console Plugin allows users to set compiler and interpreter for each buffer format.
I need to set the following program to be the interpreter for Haskell buffers.
C:\Program Files\Hugs98\winhugs.exe (a Windows program path)
To do that, I opened Console Plugin option, and the option dialogbox displayed the following options for interpreters:

none
ant
diff
hugs
java
... etc..

There was "hugs" in the list, but no "winhugs". In this case, what should I do?
What will make the winhugs.exe to appear in the list?

Thanks in advance.

can anyone help me. I've tried the settings but they don't seem to work. I just want to have multiple browsers rahter than one.

Any help

I want to run JUnit as an Ant task and have installed AntFarm and JUnit.

My class path lets me _compile_ JUnit tests OK via AntFarm.

However, when I try to make JUnit _run_ as an Ant task, I get an error in AntFarm:
Invalid build file: Unexpected element "junit"

Any advice? Thanks in anticipation.

Build file is at http://www.tomoakley.net/java/build.xml

When I edit perl and there is a function with very long argument lists and arguments, like so:

$thisIsSomeObject->andThisTheFunctionToCall("Here comes a long argument, number 1","And here another one, which is even longer than the first argument is","And yet another very very very very long arument, yes this is really quite long");

I would like to place the arguments indented the normal indentation space like this (in my case, two characters from the current indentation):

$thisIsSomeObject->andThisTheFunctionToCall("Here comes a long argument, number 1",
  "And here another one, which is even longer than the first argument is",
  "And yet another very very very very long arument, yes this is really quite long");
#next statement should not be indented, of course

However, jedit does it either like this:

$thisIsSomeObject->andThisTheFunctionToCall("Here comes a long argument, number 1",
"And here another one, which is even longer than the first argument is",
"And yet another very very very very long arument, yes this is really quite long");
#next statement should not be indented, of course

(no indentation at all) or like this, if the "deep indent" option is used:

$thisIsSomeObject->andThisTheFunctionToCall("Here comes a long argument, number 1",
                                            "And here another one, which is even longer than the first argument is",
                                            "And yet another very very very very long arument, yes this is really quite long");
#next statment should not be indented, of course

Both ways jedit does this have obvious disadvantages if you are already at a deeper indentation level and/or if the arguments are really long or deeply nested themselves. Is there *SOME* way to make Jedit indent the arguments just two spaces and not the same number of spaces as the function name is long? Is it possible to configure this? Is it possible to edit some mode file to achieve this?

I am using 4.2final on Linux and everytime I start jedit it opens as many windows as were open the last time. Since I have checked the apropriate setting for not to load the files used in the last session, all these windows show empty buffers. I would like jedit to only open a single window though -- this must be easy but somehow I cannot seem to find out how.
