Hi, i do not know anything about Fortran support....=20 You have to know that ECB itself does not support any languages! ECB supports exactly that languages which are supported by one of the following parser-engines: - semantic (part of the cedet suite - see http://cedet.sf.net) - imenu - etags I do not know which of these support Fortran... But to get sure: How have you upgraded to ECB 2.27 - from the ECB- website or from the latest avaliable XEmacs-ECB-package? Which semantic-version is installed and which version is running. Could yu please file a problem-report generated by `ecb-submit-problem-report'?! This would probably help...

Subject: [ECB-list] methods buffer no longer works for Fortran Hi,=20 I recently upgraded to the most recent ECB (2.27) and the Methods buffer no longer works with my Fortran files. It just appears blank. It used to work fine, showing all the procedures, modules, and derived types in the file. I'm not sure what my previous version was but it was whatever came as standard with my XEmacs (from FC1 xemacs-21.4.14-3 RPM). The Methods buffer still works with C, Python, and LaTeX (I haven't tried it with anything else). Has Fortran support been dropped or is this just a glitch? Is there anything I can do about it?

Hi Klaus, Thanks very much for your reply: On Tue, 2004-09-28 at 12:16, Berndl, Klaus wrote: > i do not know anything about Fortran support.... > You have to know that ECB itself does not support any languages! > ECB supports exactly that languages which are supported by one of the > following parser-engines: > - semantic (part of the cedet suite - see http://cedet.sf.net) > - imenu > - etags OK, I was scratching my head about this on and off for a couple of days (Fortran is supported by imenu, but imenu had stopped working for me, so it obviously wasn't an ECB problem...) But last night I managed to crash my X server (for totally unrelated reasons), so was forced to restart my XEmacs. And lo! everything works perfectly now. So, I've no idea what the problem was but it seems to have been transient and was almost certainly not directly related to ECB. I _thought_ I had restarted xemacs after upgrading all my packages but maybe I hadn't. In which case, it's amazing anything worked at all :) Anyway, many thanks for ECB - it's a wonderful tool. However, one thing I'm not too keen on in the new version is that the history buffer gets sorted alphabetically. This makes it hard to work with lots of files because I have to remember what each one is _called_ in order to find it in the History buffer and then scroll down to find it, which is slower than using 'C-x b' and tab-completion. The older version used to sort the History buffer _historically_ which was great - at any one time I will be jumping between a handful of files and these would all be at the top of my History list where I can easily see them. I had a quick look at the documentation but I couldn't see an easy way to revert back to the previous behaviour. I already have ecb-history-menu-sorter set to nil. Is there any way to do it?
