When I attempt to print a text file, I get a long Beanshell error (and no printing) that starts with:

java.lang.NullPointerException: null attribute
at sun.print.IPPPrintService.isAttributeValueSupported(IPPPrintService.java:1100)
at sun.print.ServiceDialog$OrientationPanel.updateInfo(ServiceDialog.java:2092)
etc. etc. etc.

Checking the "use old printing API" doesn't help.

This happens with jEdit 4.2 stable and with 4.3pre11, and with java 5 and 6. I'm using Kubuntu 7.10.

Any ideas?

I've never used JEdit and am relatively new to the Java community, so please be gentle
I need to provide a very basic text editor in my swing app. I don't think a commercial app would be allowed to distribute JEdit is my understanding but anyway the distribution footprint is likely too large for my needs...

Rather than reinventing the wheel are there any freely available fine tuned lightweight editors available in a jar that I can use for this purpose?

Thanks,

Tom.

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone here had used the xrefactory plugin? Its got some features that greatly surpass that of the javasidekick and projectviewer combination. The only problem is that its not currently being maintained.

Now I was thinking that maybe I could get some help attempting to update it to work with the current version of jedit, with the ultimate goal of maybe being merged into the javasidekick. What do you all think? I think that if we let the xrefactory plugin die, it will be a great loss for the community. With this plugin, jedit becomes a truly complete lightweight java environment. We need this. Is anyone interesting in helping me?

Hi,

I've recently installed 4.3pre11 on Windows Vista and I'm having trouble getting any play from -reuseview.

Previously I've used 4.1, then 4.2 + Ollie R's jEditLauncher to achieve the same effect, but this time I thought I'd brace myself and get jEdit using a single view without resorting to jEditLauncher. I don't seem to be able to do it though. I can see on the forum that other people have succeeded, which inspires hope.

My use case is:
open Windows Explorer.
navigate to a folder with some text files in it
select two text files
right-click the selection and choose 'Open with jEdit'
BAM - two jEdit windows.

jEdit server is set up to run on startup, and is running during the above use case:
"C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_02\bin\javaw.exe" -Xms64M -Xmx192M -jar "C:\Program Files\jEdit\jedit.jar" -reuseview -background -nogui
(when first installed the -reuseview option wasn't there, I added it in a forlorn attempt to circumvent the problem).

The 'Open with jEdit' command associated with '*' in the registry under HKCR looks like:
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\Open with jEdit\Command]
@="\"C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.6.0_02\\bin\\javaw.exe\" -Xms64M -Xmx192M -jar \"C:\\Program Files\\jEdit\\jedit.jar\" -reuseview \"%1\""
(this is as installed).

Can anyone help?

Cheers,
Tim

I'd like a Console command to run in the background.
If I enter & at the end of the line within the Console
window it works, but I get parse errors when I try to add
it in the Commando xml file.
I've tried:
buf.append('&');
buf.append('&&');
buf.append('\&');
and every other escape I can think of ... but no luck.

Thanks

I have some problems with this on Debian (lenny), KDE, Java 1.6.0_02.

1. When I try to connect from File Browser/Plugins/FTP the connection dialogue box isn't shown. (Same for both FTP and SFTP.)

2. Strange problem when switching to a session that contains remote (sftp) files. The connection dialogue box appears to have focus, but It's impossible to edit text in it. Clicking button works ok, so if I previously chose "save password" I can connect by clicking Ok button.

Connecting by choosing remote site from Favorites works totally ok.

Problem:
Activating and deactivating 'multiple selection mode' is easy to do and works well. The problem is, I am looking for a way to obtain multiple selections automatically via macro, without having to hand-click the selections I want with the mouse.

The goal is to:
1) be able to multi-select every occurrence of a regex match in the entire document;
2) be able to multi-select every occurrence of a regex match within a specified line range (or within current selection);
3) do all of this without having to use the mouse

TIA for any info or pointers.

Hi everybody,

I want to look over JEdit source code.
I download JEdit source code and built it. It need apache ant I add the project. everything is good. But ı did not find correct main function to start. I use main function of TextArea and JEdit but some thing is wrong. Is there anybody to help me.

Thanks.

When I edit PL-SQL files in jedit, with jedit set to PL-SQL (or any other SQL) mode, C-i removes all indentation rather than fixing it. For example

BEGIN
____select seq.nextval into col1 from dual ;
____return col1;
END;

becomes

BEGIN
select seq.nextval into col1 from dual ;
return col1;
END;

after C-i

How can I fix this?

(had to add underscores since the forum removed leading spaces and tabs)

Not sure what has happened, but after I updated to 4.3 pre 12 my templates no longer work.
Is there an update needed to the plug in to work with the latest release? (4.3 pre 11 seems to be fine).

... is updated for jEdit 4.3pre12 and recent versions of all supported plugins. The nessecary properties file can be downloaded here

I'm a huge fan of jEdit, and quite dependent on it for getting work done every day. I can't get my install to work any longer, and after hours and hours of work on it yesterday it still doesn't work. I'm desperate (there really is no substitute for jEdit - that I can find, anyway).

I'm working on Kubuntu Linux (ver. 7.10) - it's about my 4th day on Linux, coming from WnXP, so there are many things I don't yet know.

My install failed yesterday after an edit of the fonts in the text and interface areas, in Global Options. The launch would start, then crash. With help from someone in a Kubutu forum, I uninstalled my jEdit, and reinstalled. I did this multiple times. It still doesn't work. It crashes shortly after the splash screen appears. How far it gets into the launch seems to vary each time. Each time it crashes, it leaves a java instance behind, visible my localhost running processes list.

HOW can I get a successful install at this point? The install module I've been using is jedit_4.3pre12_all.deb

I would be so grateful for some assistant with this problem.

Hi All,

I am new to this forum.

I came to knew about JEdit through the Book "XSLT 2.0 Programmer's Reference, Third Edition by Michael Kay" which I bought last year.

From the date onwards I am using JEdit instead of Ultra edit on both of my "Windows XP" and "Ubuntu" Operating Systems.

It is incomparable even with any proprietary softwares.

First of all I thanks all of those who developing this Editor.

I have one doubt, very often I need to compare two documents. But I am not able to found any option for that purpose in JEdit.

Is there any option for that?

Srikrishnan

Hi All,

Is there any option to count and display the number of find/find & Replace done in the selected buffer/file?

I haven't been able to make TextAutocomplete plugin recognize Cobol procedure names in a format like:

000000-MAIN-ROUTINE

Since there are numbers and a dash this is ignored. According to the documentation I should modify the "Is word to remember" option but I couldn't make it work like it should.
