[ jEdit-devel ] What's wrong with JavaRefactor? - The Author

[Danny D. <dan...@ya...>]

Hi all,

I've been busy with my final thesis and then I've been
out for some time. When I have returned I read about
people complaining about JavaRefactor. What's wrong?
On my machine everything runs nice. Indeed there are
some limitations that bother me:

1. First you have to set up the input and output
directory. Once you do it you don't have to bother
except you want to change the settings. 
2. Sources must be compilable!!!! 
3. There is no such an option like synchronize: that
is once you started the refactoring every change you
do by typing in sources will not be seen by
JavaRefactor. Just restart JEdit.
4. Extract Method works fine. Just select the text,
then fill in dialog information: the name of the
method were the selected text belongs (this should be
avoided if somebody tells me how to get such
information from JEdit), the name of the new method.
Click , click!!!! 
5. REcoder does not keep any information regarding
white spaces. So that formatting might be different
than the original one. No problem with so many
beautifiers!!

Glad to help and Glad to be criticized,

danny dig
