Initial Comment:

If there is a space or more between the method name and
the opened brace the method name doesn't appear
highlighted.

The same by method call.

jEdit version: 4.1

Message:
I committed a better fix in revision 14072.  My previous fix erroneously
highlighted "for", "if", "switch", "synchronized", and "while" as FUNCTION
rather than KEYWORD. This latest fix corrects that issue.  Also, I changed
the definition of "assert" from FUNCTION to KEYWORD1, since "assert" is a
proper keyword as of Java 1.5.

Message:
Fixed in revision 14046.  The fix to the Java mode allows any amount of
horizontal whitespace between a method name and the (.  Due to limitations
of mode files, the method name and ( must be on the same line for the
method name to be highlighted.

It's still the same in jEdit 4.3pre12.

And it's a simple hack to the mode file for supporting one space between
method name and the brace. I did it for the actual delivered java.xml
(attached).

But if this would not be a desired behavior, I think the bug could be
rejected and closed.

File Added: java.xml

Now (jEdit 4.3pre9) the MARK_PREVIOUS tag seems to match text consisting
of more than one character.

With the attached mode file method names with one (or zero) spacees
between method name and opening brace will be highlighted.

I'm not sure about the amount and kind (tabs?) of allowed whitespace. This
should be not hard to justify (see lines 80-86). Would a java freak check
this?

File Added: java.xml

The problem is in the mode xml.

for languages like C or JAVA the FUNCTION keywords are
defined using a MARK_PREVIOUS tag which does allow only of
single characters matching.

A new property for the MARK_PREVIOUS tag like
IGNORE_LEADING_WHITESPACES could eliminate the problem
