You should not be setting customization variables by hand nor do you need to do this. Customization "works" for me in JDE 2.2.9beta7 and NT Emacs 21.1. If it is not "working" for you, it is because there is something wrong in your setup or in how you are using customization. As for jde-help-docsets, the data type of this variable changed significantly from 2.2.8 to 2.2.9. When variable data types change, you have to reset them to their standard value in the customization buffer, kill the buffer, and then recustomize them, using the customize-variable command. In the future, please describe your problem specifically, e.g., "Emacs segvs when I select the Save for Future Sessions menu item" instead of using information-poor phrases like "does not work." Better yet, use the JDE's Submit Problem Report command. If you had done this, I would know whether you have set jde-help-docsets correctly and therefore be able to offer you an exact solution. Regarding ant, I do not use ant and the JDE's ant support was developed by others. Maybe they can offer some! help. - Paul
