Hi,
I'd like to update the internal JLine used by JShell and jjs to JLine
3.9.0. Two notable advantages of this version is multi-line snippet
editing and better UI on Windows (escape sequence support on Windows).
As a consequence, this patch drops EditingHistory, as it does not seem
to be needed anymore.
JBS:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8214491
The full patch is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jlahoda/8214491/webrev.00/
To make the changes more clear, I've split it into two:
-replacement of existing JLine with the new on in jdk.internal.le, no
changes to JLine code:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jlahoda/8214491/webrev.00.replace/
-tweaks to JLine (repackaging, eliminating references to j.u.l.Logger,
adding hooks to wrap input streams with our stop-detecting input stream,
adding unicode escapes to unicode characters, support for Windows
without JNA), adjustments to JShell and jjs (unfortunately, 3.9.0 is not
compatible with the JLine 2 branch, so the changes are substantial):
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jlahoda/8214491/webrev.00.update/
Any feedback is welcome!
Thanks,
Jan
