RE: [ jEdit-users ] jEdit 4.3pre1 now available

[Robert W. V. <bob...@ve...>]

After switching to 4.3pre1, I have encountered the following problem:

The contents of the current buffer are not always displayed.  Sometimes
another buffer's contents are displayed instead.  But the current buffer
contents are somehow known to the program - for example:

Say you have files A and B open, and are currently in file A, but (due to
this bug) the contents of file B are displayed instead.  You search for the
text "blah", which is contained in file A, but not in file B.  It will act
as if it has successfully found "blah", and will highlight the text in file
B that is at (I think) the same byte offset in file B as the actual text
"blah" in file A.

I'm using the Buffer Tabs plugin; switching to a different tab and then back
to the one you're interested in seems to get the proper file displayed.

I'm sorry I don't know how to reproduce it, but it seems to happen soon
after switching sessions (I'm also using the Sessions plugin).

Thanks,

Bob Vesterman.

Subject: [ jEdit-users ] jEdit 4.3pre1 now available


Hello everybody,

jEdit 4.3pre1 is now available from http://www.jedit.org.

Thanks to Cameron Morrison, Igor Lesik, Jim Lawton, Marcelo Vanzin,
Nicholas O'Leary and Trevor Harmon for contributing to this release.

Changes since 4.2final include:

{{{ Search and Replace

- When invoking "Find", "Incremental Search for Word" or "HyperSearch
   for Word" actions, if regular expression search is on, any special
   characters in the selection are automatically escaped.

- Find dialog box now has fields that accept multi-line input. Pressing
   ENTER activates the "Find" button; press C+ENTER to insert lines in
   the field.

- Variables such as "view", "buffer" and "textArea" can now be used from
   BeanShell replace expressions.

}}}
{{{ Syntax Highlighting

- Literate Haskell syntax highlighting (Cameron Morrison).

- Updated D syntax highlighting (Jim Lawton).

- Forth syntax highlighting.

- Motorola 68000 assembler syntax highlighting (Igor Lesik).

}}}
{{{ Scripting

- Macros written in the UTF-8Y and UTF-16 encodings are auto-detected.

- Added Macros->Repeat Last Macro command. This used to be in 4.1, but
   got removed in 4.2, and now its back due to popular demand.

}}}
{{{ Miscellaneous

- jEdit no longer runs with Java 2 version 1.3. Java 2 version 1.4 or
   1.5 is now required.

- If the wrap margin is set to 0 and soft wrap is enabled, wrapping is
   now performed at the text area width. This used to be in 4.1, but
   got removed in 4.2, and now its back due to popular demand.

- Rename Autosave & Backup option pane to Save & Backup, move some
   options from General pane there (Marcelo Vanzin).

- Added Ant target for building a MacOS X .app package (Trevor Harmon).

- Added Register and Marker dockables (Nicholas O'Leary).

- "Rectangular Selection" command now changes the state of the current
   selection to match the flag.

- "Select All" preserves current scroll position.

- When closing jEdit, open buffers are not added to the "Recent Files"
   list if the "Restore previously open files on startup" option is on.

- View.goToBuffer() will try to find a non-zero height text area if
   possible.

- Pressing TAB now preserves the tall caret, if there is one.

- When a directory is reloaded, it is no longer moved to the top of the
   file system browser's history list.

- Added View->Splitting->Restore Split action -- it recreates a
   split pane configuration as it was before the most recent 'Unsplit'.

}}}
{{{ Bug Fixes

- "Backup directory" feature now works if the file being edited is on a
   different filesystem than the backup directory (Marcelo Vanzin).

- Don't use two-stage save if the file's parent directory is not
   writeable (Marcelo Vanzin).

- Minor fix for handling of the recent buffer when the current buffer
   was closed.

- Fix StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when opening files with a
   malformed XML PI.

- Removing open files from the favorites list didn't work.

- calling readNextChar() no longer clears the status bar after the
   script returns.

- Fix potential ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException when indenting lines
   containing unmatched brackets.

- The "deselecting this plugin will deselect dependencies" message did
   not give the actual list of dependencies.

- Fixed NullPointerException when selecting QuickNotepad menu items
   before opening QuickNotepad first.

- Register persistence was broken and didn't work in many cases.

}}}
{{{ API Changes

- New org.gjt.sp.jedit.gui.HistoryTextArea class can be used by
   plugins.

- Removed EditPlugin.JAR, deprecated since 4.2.

- Removed Buffer.getRootElements(), Buffer.getParagraphElement() and
   Buffer.getDefaultRootElement() methods, deprecated since jEdit 4.0.
