hello Paul,
please look at my answer below to someones jikes-parsing problem.
Maybe it would be useful if JDE contains a test similar the one i wrote
below to check if the variable 'compilation-error-regexp-alist'
is set correct for jikes and javac (This test could be done easily
with two example error-message of both compilers).
If the value is incorrect JDE could automatically add the needed regexp.
What do you think?

For me compiling with jikes and the option +E works. I´m using Emacs >= 20.5 onto
Windows NT and Solaris 2.6 and JDE 2.2.6.2.
Maybe your variable 'compilation-error-regexp-alist' is set incorrect. You can check it
with this little test i hacked quickly:
(defun jikes-test ()
(interactive)
(let ((tmp-list compilation-error-regexp-alist)
;; the following is a sample error-output from jikes +E
(str "AdapterAdministration.java:27:25:27:29: Error: Type
de/hvb/ha/adapter/Strin was not found")
(counter 0)
elem found)
(while (and tmp-list (not found))
(setq counter (1+ counter))
(setq elem (car tmp-list))
(setq tmp-list (cdr tmp-list))
(when (string-match (car elem) str)
(message "%d. Regexp of compilation-error-regexp-alist matched, File: %s,
Line: %s"
counter
(match-string (nth 1 elem) str)
(match-string (nth 2 elem) str))
(setq found t)))
(if (not found)
(message "Not found"))))
Hust put this into your .emacs file and reload it, then call jikes-test.
If your compilation-error-regexp-alist is set correct the following message should
appear:
"1. Regexp of compilation-error-regexp-alist matched, File:
AdapterAdministration.java, Line: 27"
(Maybe the number of the matching regexp can be different).
If the message "Not found" appears, your velaue is incorrect.
Here is the value of compilation-error-regexp-alist i use (it´s the default one of
Emacs
>= 20.5!):
