#1927 SuperAbbrevs 2.0-pre8: fails in 5.7.0
Hi everyone,
Since upgrading to jEdit version 5.6.0 and continuing into version 5.7.0, the SuperAbbrevs plugin (version 2.0-pre8) has encountered issues with template variables and later abbreviation management.
Template Variable Replacement Failure (jEdit 5.6.0 and above):
When using SuperAbbrevs in jEdit 5.6.0 or later, the plugin fails to replace the variables in the templates as expected.
For example, the template private ${2:Type} ${1:field}; is supposed to dynamically replace ${2:Type} with "Type" and ${1:field} with "field", and toggle between these fields using the TAB key. Instead, the plugin inserts the template text directly without replacing the variables, i.e., private ${2:Type} ${1:field}; is typed as-is, without the variable selection functionality.
Abbreviation Management (jEdit 5.7.0):
Starting from jEdit 5.7.0, in addition to the issue with variable replacement, the plugin also exhibits a problem within the Plugin Options menu under Plugin Options > SuperAbbrevs > Abbreviations, it is no longer possible to add new abbreviations or modify existing ones. The interface is non-responsive for these action.
Attachments
I am attaching the log files from both jEdit versions 5.6.0 and 5.7.0 to assist in diagnosing the issues.
