Hello,
Xemacs 21.1.3 (NT native) seems to be working ok with JDE 2.1.6b4, except
for the BeanShell and doc-browser. I have built XEmacs for X:\XEmacs, where
X: is a SUBST alias for "C:\Program Files" - spaces in pathnames don't work
with JDE/BeanShell at all.
With jde-run-java-vm-w set to "java", console-mode apps run ok with
C-c C-v C-r (though not GUI ones).
However, BeanShell is still awry: M-X bsh <enter> gives
----
BeanShell 0.96 beta - by Pat Niemeyer ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
bsh % System.out.println ("hello");
hello^M
bsh %
----
i.e. it's functional, but appends "^M" to every output line, which gives
problems processing subsequent lines.
Using jde-wiz-override-method _nearly_ works -- it correctly finds the
super class, and works out whether there's a method by the specified name
to override. However, I get
Wrong type argument: sequencep, 0
on executing the wizard even with point correctly positioned.
JDE, bsh and jde-wiz-override-method all work fine under GNUEmacs (NTEmacs)
20.3.1 (and very wonderful they are too!), but overall I find XEmacs a
good deal easier to use (I'm sure this is mostly personal taste).
---- Browse JDK doc ----
jde-browse-jdk-doc works fine in NTEmacs - jde-jdk-doc-url is
"file:///F|/jdk1.2/docs/index.html"
Under XEmacs, this is looked up as
'-remote openURL(file:///F|/jdk1.2/docs/index.html)'
(that's what's displayed in the Netscape URL box) which attempts a dial-up
to "keywords.netscape.com". Manually dropping just the URL into Netscape
brings up the index page as expected.
Are either of these likely candidates for fixing?
Would I be better with a 21.2.x build instead?
---- Debugging tips? ----
Please can someone advise me how I can debug some of this myself? I can't
see how to set breakpoints or to single-step through (e.g.) jde-wiz.el or
jde-browse-jdk-doc - where do I look for documentation? Setting
debug-on-entry causes the code to be loaded when I start executing the
function, but I can't step through.
Thanks for your attention,
Regards,
Thomas.
NB: When run from the command line and redirected, java MyTest --
System.out.println ("hello") -- outputs
hello\x0d\x0a: this is shown correctly as
hello
<new line>
from within XEmacs.
