jedit and java 1.5
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 29 December, 2004 - 15:49
How do I use jedit with java 1.5? Can't seem to find any plugins or anything that help. Will it be long before jedit is released with 1.5 support?
Highlighting problem
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 29 December, 2004 - 16:02
Hello,

I created a edit-scheme which should recognize everything
between a * and a ; as a comment if there is only whitespace between
the preceeding ; (in the same line) and the beginning * .

Example:

i=3*j; *comment1; *comment2;

Here I want the signs till the first ; not to be considered as comment.
The two following parts between * and ; should be considered as comments.

I defined RULES with the SPAN_REGEXP command, but highlighting works
only for the first comment in the line. Somehow the ending ; of the first
comment is not considered as the begin of a SPAN_REGEXP.
Now I introduce a second ; in my example like follows:

i=3*j; *comment1;; *comment2;

Here also the second comment is recognised by the the SPAN_REGEXP:
[;][[:space:]]+[*]

Does anybody know a solution to this problem?
Thanks a lot in advance

PHP edit mode (php.xml v2005-03-18 by blueyed)
Submitted by blueyed on Thursday, 30 December, 2004 - 05:19
Merged the version from Scott with the CVS version and wrote a PHP script to extract the functions, classes and aliases from php.net/zend.org automatically. Besides there are some more changes I've made with help from Scott regarding the handling of variables in literals and class variables/methods in general. A raw definition of token type usage:
  • FUNCTION: own functions
  • KEYWORD1: language constructs (__FILE__, break, extends, ..)
  • KEYWORD2: internal functions (PHP, xdebug, SimpleTest/PHPUnit), DTD tags
  • KEYWORD3: variable names (plus true, false, null)
  • KEYWORD4: class relevant things (definitions, methods, vars)
  • LITERAL1: literals
  • LITERAL2: HTML entities
  • COMMENT1: "#", "/* */"
  • COMMENT2: "//" and HTML comments
  • COMMENT3: PHPdoc

XML Plugin [HELP!]: "Not an XML File" Error"
Submitted by gravyak on Saturday, 1 January, 2005 - 18:45
I'm a noob on XML Plugin, and I can't seem to get it to work properly. I'm trying to write a Console/Commando xml file (started with a different, valid Commando XML file), but the "XML Insert" panes are empty (i.e., don't contain valid element lists), and functions of the XML Pluging like "Edit Tag at Caret..." return an error dialog titled, "Not an XML File". This is puzzling because I know that I have a well-formed XML file in the selected buffer, and it's in XML editing mode on the jEdit status bar.

I think I must be missing something very basic, because the plugin loads fine, but it seems simply non-functional for editing. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Fortran 77/90/95 Syntax Highliting Improvement (fortran.xml v0.2 by Raffaele Borrelli)
Submitted by lello on Tuesday, 4 January, 2005 - 19:17
This file contains several improvements of the "very basic" Fortran mode which comes with jEdit. I have added all the new F90 intrinsic functions and used some SPAN_REGEXP for a correct highlighting of the END DO, END SUBROUTINE sequences. Hope this helps the (small?) Fortran community. Lello.
typing in action bar is invisible
Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday, 4 January, 2005 - 20:24
I just started using jedit 4.2final and when I move to the action bar to type something it doesn't echo or appear on the screen, although the commands work. I tried using the utilities->global options->appearance to 'use jEdit text area colors in all' places but it didn't work and the typing is still invisible. Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

SourceControl plugin 0.7 beta release (SourceControl_07.zip v0.7 by Mirco Bova)
Submitted by mirco.bova on Wednesday, 5 January, 2005 - 09:17
The 0.7 version of the SourceControl plugin features an embrional support for CVS. It also includes a number of bugfixes and improvements to perforce and VSS implementations from different authors. BR, Mirco
SourceControl
Submitted by mirco.bova on Wednesday, 5 January, 2005 - 09:32
The SourceControl plugin provides integration with source control systems, such as MS Visual Source Safe, Perforce and CVS. In time it will allow integration with a range of source control systems. At present just MS Visual Source Safe is supported. To add a new system just implement the SourceControlInterface.java interface and create an options panel for any settings required by the new system.
jEdit4.2final: "Restore previously open files on startup" doesn't work
Submitted by uln on Wednesday, 5 January, 2005 - 18:11
Because I have had version problems when installing XML plugin, I updated jEdit from 4.2pre9 to 4.2final.
I decided to update also Java VM form 1.4.2_03 to 1.4.2_06. Now "Restore previously open files on startup" doesn't work, although selected. A Bug? OR have I change another option, too?

Loss of indent when using shellscript mode
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 5 January, 2005 - 19:51
When using braced variable names on an indented line, entry of ${Varname} causes the line to lose it's indent. e.g. for Line in $(ls) do print ${Line} <- as soon as the opening brace is typed the line shifts back to column 0 done Any ideas on how to fix this??? TIA
Wrong glyphs for some unicode characters in Java
Submitted by Anonymous on Wednesday, 5 January, 2005 - 22:55
In Linux I use a customized keyboard mapping which gives me access to unicode characters I often need to type. But some of them, strangely, are wrongly displayed in jEdit. For example,
\u012b is displayed as \u03ef
\u016b as \u03fe
\u014d as \u03f2
\u0101 as \u03e0
\u0111 as \u01f0
\u0113 as \u03ba
etc
So for each of these cases I need a work-around by redefining the key that generates the wrong glyph with a shortcut to a macro which writes the correct character. For instance the shortcut Alt-a activates a bsh macro containing the line
textArea.setSelectedText("\u0101")
which prints "Ä?" (a macron) instead of \u3e0 which is Greek sampi!

I checked with other Java GUI apps having Unicode support (such as JabRef): the very same bug occurs again! So this must be a general Java bug (some mess in the Unicode tables?) Yet might it be possible to fix this in a future version of jEdit by somehow circumventing this mess through an appropriate patch? Sorry if I can't help much myself, as I am not a Java programmer.

Any idea?

Thanks,
François

PS: I run J2RE 1.5.0_01-b08 on Linux. The problem also occurs with J2RE 1.4.2_06-b03.
