From: paulk AT mathworks DOT com (Paul Kinnucan) Subject: Emacs JDE 2.0.2 Released 22 Jun 1998 23:04:03 -0700 Message-ID: <358E8551.E6FD2C36.cygnus.gnu-win32@mathworks.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: jde AT sunsite DOT auc DOT dk, ntemacs-users AT cs DOT washington DOT edu, gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com Version 2.0.2 of the Java Development Environment for Emacs is available for downloading from the JDE home page http://sunsite.auc.dk/jde/ or its mirror http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Lakes/1506/ JDE 2.0.2 provides new features and fixes some bugs in previous release: New Features ============ * Abbreviation Mode The JDE optionally allows you to define and use abbreviations when editing Java source buffers. The JDE defines abbreviations for most Java keywords. You can modify and/or define additional abbreviations. See the JDE User's Guide for more information. * Automatic startup in debug mode You can now specify debugger commands to be issued to the debugger at startup. By default, the JDE issues commands to set a breakpoint at the beginning of your application's main method and run the debugger to that initial breakpoint. See the JDE User's Guide for more information. * More code templates This release addes code generation templates for - mouse motion listener - toString method * Customizable breakpoint marker regular expression The regular expression used to detect breakpoints in debugger output is now customizable. This provides flexibility for supporting debuggers besides jdb. See the JDE User's Guide for more information. Bug Fixes ========= Release 2.0.1 fixes the following bugs: * JDE opens spurious source buffers when the stack is dumped. The current release defines a new default breakpoint marker regular expression that matches markers contained only in jdb breakpoint messages. This eliminates spurious matches. * Console template command generates jfc template instead. * Buffer-change detection function hooks every keystroke This release makes post-command-hook buffer-local. About the JDE ============= The JDE is an Emacs Lisp package that provides a highly configurable Emacs wrapper for command-line Java development tools, such as those provided in JavaSoft's JDK. The JDE provides menu access to a Java compiler, debugger, and API doc. The Emacs/JDE combination adds features typically missing from command-line tools, including: * syntax coloring * auto indentation * abbreviations * source code generation * compile error to source links * source-level debugging * source code browsing The JDE supports both Emacs (Unix and Windows versions) and XEmacs. It is freely available under the GNU public license. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
