This version is fully functional and so far I didn't encounter any bugs. I guess that over the course of the next few days, as people start using this version, a few issues may come up. I'd be glad to fix these. I also took Mike's suggestion, Waterfromt's main window is now using a side-by-side layout.
Hi Itay,Very nice work on waterfront! I gave it a try on Mac OS X. It worked well and showcases many cool ideas.
I had a couple of issues:- when building on Mac OS X with Java 6 64-bit or Java 5 32-bit, I got errors like this one:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file to /sq/ext/waterfront/waterfront/ bin [javac] /sq/ext/waterfront/lab/src/net/sourceforge/waterfront/ide/ services/Main.java:92: method does not override a method from its superclass
[javac] @Override
[javac] ^
[javac] 1 error
in every case where @Override was present in the waterfront source.
I was able to build successfully by commenting all of them out.
- When using waterfront on Mac OS X, it appears that the control
characters intended to trigger menu selections (e.g. ^E) are being
intercepted before they reach the menus. In the specific case of ^E,
it is being interpreted by the text input field as "move to end of
line" which is a common meaning for it in Mac OS X. I suspect there is
a way to trigger menu items using the "command-key" on the Mac (while
still using the control key on Windows) and people using waterfront on
Mac OS X would benefit from a change to using that mechanism.
Thanks very much for waterfront! --Steve
