ANN: Name Change Plans
Hi All, Taking into consideration your feedback and on the advice of Richard Stallman, I have decided to accede to J.D. Edwards demand that I change the name of the JDE. I plan to send a letter notifying them of my decision tomorrow. I have decided to use JMode as the new name of the JDE because it has an Emacs flavor, is not trademarked in the U.S., and has received generally favorable comments from JDE users. I have asked Sunsite Denmark to provide me with a new set of domain, mailing list, and repository addresses based on jmode. To ease the transition to the new name, I have asked Sunsite Denmark to redirect the old addresses to the new. I will let you know as soon as the new addresses become effective. I will start changing the name on the JDE website pages and in the documentation over the next few days. I have not decided whether to change the name in the source code yet but I probably will ASAP to avoid confusion. If you can think of anything else that I can do to minimize the impact of this name change on you, please let me know. Regards, Paul

Yes, one possibility is to replace jde- with j- in symbol names, on the analogy of c-mode. Another is jmode-. Thus, jde-global-classpath might become j-global-classpath or jmode-global-classpath. I'd appreciate feedback on these alternatives. I think jmode- is much better than j- as prefix. The mode activation function could be called jmode though. Too bad you have to change the name, JDE is a well known name for Java programmers now. It's kinda scary that big companies can have such power of us small, hard working developers.

RE: jde-ant
Hi Douglas, This is also kind of a hack, but basically I advise the function `compile-internal' to put the value of `jde-global-classpath' in $CLASSPATH for the duration of the compilation. Has anyone else solved this problem of propagating jde-global-classpath to compiles more elegantly than this? (defadvice compile-internal (around njs-apply-jde-global-classpath-to-make compile activate) Hack compile-internal to apply the current jde-global-classpath as the make process's classpath. Also force load of jde project if not already loaded. (let ((process-environment process-environment)) (if (and (string-equal default jde-project-name) (jde-find-project-file default-directory)) (jde-load-project-file)) (setq process-environment (remove-if (lambda (x) (string-match ^CLASSPATH= x)) process-environment)) (add-to-list 'process-environment (concat CLASSPATH= (jde-global-classpath))) ad-do-it)) Now if you're going to need several different classpaths depending on the target, you're probably best off coding those classpaths into the ant build file.

JDebug question
What is the recomended way to debug servlets? I was just specifying the servlet engine as the application to be debugged and then setting breakpoints in my coe. However, this stopped working and I found that when I changed to using a port, it became too slow to work with. Should I change to use shared memory? Are there parameters I should tweak to give it more memory?

ECB v1.40 released!
ECB, Emacs Code Browser, version 1.40 is now available at: http://home.swipnet.se/mayhem/ecb.html ECB is a source code browser that displays directories, source files, methods and variables that can be navigated using the mouse (and keyboard). It supports parsing of Java, C, C++ and Elisp source code. It is completely written in Emacs Lisp and uses semantic to parse source files. Major changes since last version: - ECB now requires semantic 1.4beta8 or later! - ECB is now a global minor mode with it's own menu ECB and it's own keymap with prefix C-c .. - Better integration with semantic: - ECB now uses semantic functions to display tokens in the methods buffer. - Only changed tokens are updated in the methods buffer. - Can display any semantic token type in the methods buffer. - Added a token tree cache that stores recently opened buffers' token trees. This makes the buffer switching much faster and also saves expanded token tree nodes. - Better support for small screens: - A new layout, nr. 11. - New function to toggle visibility of the ECB windows (see 'ecb-toggle-ecb-windows').

Block comment indentation
I have some old files where block comments are not formmated the way I want. They are like this: /** * * */ The stars are flush left. Instead I want this: /** * * */ Now, JDE correctly indents this way when I type new comments. However, I would like to reformat my old code automagically using indent-region. This might have been working, I don't remember. But recently I changed my settings and downloaded a new JDE (2.2.8beta3), and now it's not working. Maybe it never did this, I don't know.

Re: Renaming Proposal
You are correct regarding enforcement. Hence the reason that they sent Paul the cease and desist notice. However, that only means that they took a cursory glance at JDE, saw that there might be a conflict and took the appropriate measure to notify the potential violator. They are probably unaware of the duration of time that JDE has been used as well as the details of what it really is and the fact that the full name is Java Development Environment. For these reasons it seems perfectly valid to provide them with the facts regarding the product, provide several possible solutions, and request further information with regard to their ownership of the trademark, and which sections of the law they are citing as a violation. Possible solutions: 1. Obtain permission from JDE to continue to use the mark. (The owner of a trademark is fully allowed to grant others permission to use the mark while still retaining rights to it.) 2. Don't use the letters JDE in the logo, or at least incorporate the full product name (which may very well be their largest objection). 3. Place a notice on the website referring users who errantly went to the page to the JD Edwards site. Again, I am not proposing replying to JD Edwards with a challenge. Rather, I am proposing a request for further information. It seems to at least be worth a try before jumping through a lot of hoops for something that might be amicably worked out. One could also point out the bad press companies have received for hitting open source projects and offer to submit a story showing JDE as a counter example to that general trend. I would not recommend asking them if JDEE is an acceptable name without first changing the name of the product on the web site and getting formal proof of use of the name (after which any future trademarking is irrelevant due to common law). Otherwise, they could submit an ITU trademark registration for the new name prior to that decision.

Anyways, it works -- if someone can let me know what I can do to not

Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression that the custom
tasks, the ones that I have developed need to be part of the classpath
that ant uses. So, if I were to start ant from the command line (not
under Emacs) I would include the ant.jar, parser.jar, and jaxp.jar plus
my.jar in the -classpath option to java. I believe that the example

project. How do I adjust the classpath for ant so I can add my jar
files.
Any help would be very appreciated.

Re: jde-ant

Options:
1 - You can use the jde-ant-args custom variable to pass in the classpath
you want to use.
2 - There is a custom variable jde-ant-program that points to the script
that runs Ant. You could also edit the script (or create a new one) that
passes in the classpath you want to use; however, this isn't particularly
elegant (or portable), and I generally discourage doing anything fancy in
the script you use to run Ant.
3 - Modify your custom Ant tasks to allow specification of the classpath
(for an example, look at how the javac task is implemented).

Hello,
Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression that the custom
tasks, the ones that I have developed need to be part of the classpath
that ant uses. So, if I were to start ant from the command line (not
under Emacs) I would include the ant.jar, parser.jar, and jaxp.jar plus
my.jar in the -classpath option to java. I believe that the example
below will not work correctly.
Am I missing something?
Thanks ...

Regarding your second issue, I typically do something like the
following in
my ant build.xml file
!-- Path element containing all jar files in lib directory
--
path id=lib.class.path
fileset dir=${lib.dir}
include name=**/*.jar/
/fileset
/path
Then, in my javac task, I have something like the following
classpath
pathelement location=${build.dest.dir}/
path refid=lib.class.path/
/classpath
BTW: I am in the process of making some (relatively extensive)
changes to
jde-ant (jmode-ant). One of the new features will be the ability to
create
a new build definition file from a template.

Hello,
After finally moving to ant to build my java apps I would like to
use the jde-ant feature (new name jmode-ant :-) I have played with
it
for the last few days. I found a potential problem using XEmacs. I
had to add the following code
from
(let ((temp last-nonmen-event))
to
(let ((temp (if (boundp 'last-nonmenu-event)
last-nonmen-event
nil)))
to avoid getting a
Symbol's value as variable is void: last-nonmenu-event
error.
Anyways, it works -- if someone can let me know what I can do to not
use this hack, that would be good.
Another interesting problem, I have custom targets in the ant build
project. How do I adjust the classpath for ant so I can add my jar
files.
Any help would be very appreciated.
