#4137 jEdit 5.7: bundled Macro Misc/Buffer_to_HyperSearch_Results doesn't run

[Robert Schwenn]

Hi,
macro Misc/Buffer_to_HyperSearch_Results.bsh fails due to several errors, which I'm not able to fix:

• setAccessibility()
• Can't find constructor: org.gjt.sp.jedit.search.HyperSearchResult( org.gjt.sp.jedit.Buffer, int )
• hyperSearchNode.addOccur() doesn't exist

The macro runs fine in jEdit 5.6.

System: jEdit 5.7, Eclipse Adoptium JRE 21.0.4+7-LTS, Windows 11 Pro 23H2

Was able to replicate this on jEdit 5.7.0, Java 25, macOS 27.2, so it doesn’t appear to be specific to Windows or Java 21.

Replication steps:

Open any file in jEdit.
Choose Macros -> Misc -> Buffer_to_HyperSearch_Results.

Result: a “BeanShell Error” dialog appears immediately:
org.gjt.sp.jedit.bsh.Capabilities$Unavailable: Accessibility unavailable at org.gjt.sp.jedit.bsh.Capabilities.setAccessibility(Capabilities.java:82)

In my test only the setAccessibility() error appeared. The constructor and addOccur() errors listed in the report did not show up, possibly because the macro stops at this first error before reaching that code.
