Timeline for updating plugins for Java 5: Tiger?

Submitted by Sawdusty on Wednesday, 27 October, 2004 - 17:17

I've started developing in Tiger and am having troubles with a lot of my favourite JEdit plugins. JavaStyle crashes on generics, enums, and static imports. SideKick (using Jane) is not able to parse the structure of files containing Tiger structures. Dot Complete also seems to be confused on occasion, but not so often that it hinders my work.

I know that these and other Java-Centric plugins are going to require a major overhaul to include the new Tiger features. I was just wondering if there's any timeframe in mind for when they will be supported or partially supported.

Thanks,
Dusty

A note,

I found out that the latest version of JavaStyle and JRefactory, as available here:

http://jrefactory.sourceforge.net/

support Tiger. I haven't tested it thoroughly, but it seems to work. It has a built-in code navigator that should work similar to sidekick or JBrowse, and that also works with Tiger.

I don't know why updates of this plugin aren't included in the JEdit plugins.

Were you able to get it to work? I tried very hard to get JavaStyle to format 1.5 syntax and couldn't get anything beyond a NullPointerException:

[error] JEditPrettyPrinter: java.lang.NullPointerException
[error] JEditPrettyPrinter: at org.acm.seguin.ide.jedit.JEditPrettyPrinter.run(JEditPrettyPrinter.java:107)

I'm dying for this to work! Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

It's a shame really that none of the major IDE's (I include jEdit in that) support Tiger yet despite the fact that the beta's have been out for ages, as I've been excited to get my hands on the new language features for ages now.

Perhaps I'll have to dig into the Jane code when I have some spare time...
