Update 0.2.9 of the new jEdit NetRexx plugin is available for testing

Kermit Kiser
The test version of the new NetRexx plugin for jEdit is now updated to version 0.2.9 on Kenai.

This is probably the final format and functionality change for the combined compile/interpret console window (unless someone has a better suggestion :-). Only one of the buttons for interpreter parse output and compiler error output now appears as is appropriate from context. The Android IDE modules are now compiled for performance and no longer need the "preparse" mode to run. Support for jEdit 4.2 had to be dropped as expected. Buttons should work much better now.

I may take a run at combining the compile/interpret option screens before a final release. Otherwise only bugs and performance mods will happen.

The usual install instructions follow:

The binary module can be downloaded from the NetRexx Plus project:

http://kenai.com/projects/netrexx-plus/downloads/download/jEdit%20NetRexxPlugin/NetRexxPlugin.jar

The plugin runs with the latest NetRexxC.jar build of the development branch of NetRexx which can be downloaded here:

http://kenai.com/projects/netrexx-plus/downloads/download/Experimental%20NetRexx%20Build/NetRexxC.jar

These files replace NetRexxDE.jar, NetRexxScript.jar, and NetRexxC.jar in the jEdit jars directory.

On Windows the user jEdit jars directory could be C:\Documents and Settings\useracct\.jedit\jars
On Linux the user jEdit jars directory could be /home/useracct/.jedit/jars
(Where "useracct" is the actual userid, of course.)
It is recommended to delete any old "NetRexx" directories in the jEdit profile directory (~.jedit\NetRexx) and macros directory (~.jedit\macros\NetRexx) before running the new plugin.

Some features for this plugin include these:
  • A new combined compiler and interpreter window handles both NetRexx modes
  • The updated Android/NetRexx IDE for SDK R20 is included
  • An updated NetRexx mode file that can handle highlighting nested comments is included
  • The console Run button runs a program that has been compiled or interprets it if it has not been compiled since the last change
  • A new option allows compiled programs to run as jEdit macros or as standalone Java modules
