#199 Error when closing editor window

[Mario Bruckschwaiger]

I get a pop-up message and the following stack-trace in Netbeans log file after closing an editor window. It does not matter, if I close it with the (x) on the tab or with ":w". As you can see in the log below, I am using Netbeans 15 on Windows (10).

ALL [null]: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect

[Ernie Rael]

Thanks very much for the report. (I'm on Linux now, no Windows testing)

With v2.0.9 jVi saves the cursor position when a file closes, and uses it to restore the cursor position if the file is reopened. Vim uses a buffer mark named ", jVi uses the same name.

This ends up creating a preferences node named of double quote, which is legal, accd to the jdk docs

The only restrictions on this name are that it cannot be the empty string,
and it cannot contain the slash character ('/')

So I'd say this is a NetBeans bug since it is their implementation of Preferences. I'm curious if the jdk implmementation has the problem on windows.

An option viminfo: max buf-marks was added in 2.0.9, but it looks like saving this mark by-passes that. oh well.

But all that hardly matters, it's jVi's bug now. I'll try to get something out quickly.

Instead of " I'm going to use @; since it represents your location in a file, at sign feels good. Any problem with a Windows filename having that char in it? If I don't hear of any problem soon, it's going in.

[Ernie Rael]

I've uploaded https://sourceforge.net/projects/jvi/files/jVi-for-NetBeans/NetBeans-12_JDK-11/nbvi-2.0.10.rc2.zip/download

Give it a try if you get a chance. If I don't hear anything negative, I'll upload to the jVi update center tomorrow.

Hi, I just tested it on Windows, and it works. Thanks!

[Ernie Rael]

Got hold of a windows system. Found a couple more windows issues

• clipboard handling both on Linux, broke windows clipboard handling
• :e*, :cd,:e path handling issues with '\' in filename (was treated like an escape)

v2.0.11 is now available and fixes these issues
