Thanks to Jean-Baptiste Nizet" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for reporting this and the following bug. * Now completes on inherited as well as declared fields and methods. * Fixed "Wrong type argument: sequencep, 0" bug that occurs when using completion with XEmacs. Thanks to Dr. Volker Zell for reporting this bug. * Now supports completion of fields declared at the end of a class as well as those declared at the beginning of a class. * Replaced jde-help-class with jde-help-symbol method. The new method gets help for the symbol at point. The symbol may refer to a class, an object, or a method or field. This method has some limitations. It works only for symbols declared in the current buffer. For example, it works for String msg = new String(); msg.length() but not for Status status = new Status(); status.msg.length() Also, this method does not scroll the class file to the place where the method or field is documented. These capabilities will come later. Thanks to Geoff Borgggaard, [EMAIL PROTECTED], for suggesting this enhancement. * Fixed bug where Display->Threads command was not enabled when debugger was attached to a process. Note: for instructions on installing and using JDEbug, read the entire ReleaseNotes.txt file from back to front, starting at beta5. * Fixed several incompatibilities between JDEbug and XEmacs. ============================================================================ About the JDE ============================================================================ The Java Development Environment for Emacs is a freeware Emacs/JDK-based IDE for creating Java applications.
