Few featues in JDev 10.1.3 code editor

Few code editor feautes I would like to see in JDev 10.1.3
Reference : http://help.eclipse.org/help30/topic/org.eclipse.jdt.doc.user/whatsNew/jdt_whatsnew.html
1) a method parameter, to assign it to a new field
2) a method declaration. to create the method in a supertype
3) highlight source code according to its semantics (for example: static fields, local variables, static method invocations
4) Highlight method exit points (really helps)
5) Mark locations of thrown exceptions (Easy look up of exceptions)
6) Parameter mismatches in constructors or methods
ex: Quick fixes offerd to cast, swap, add, or remove arguments or method parameters.

EA1 - Right gutter scroll bar in the Code Editor doesn't work?

SQL Developer version 4.0.0.12, Windows XP
I'm opening package body in Code Editor. In previous version of SQL Dev after pressing CTRL and moving mouse over the right gutter I could see a few lines of the code from mouse pointed position in the source.
Now it doesn't work.
Link below - section "Working in the Procedure Editor":
http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2012/01/viewing-plsql-compilation-errors-in-oracle-sql-developer/

Hi,
It is true the right gutter's general scrolling window view capability no longer exists in 4.0. However, if code errors exist, then small blue squares (uncompiled code) or slightly larger red rectangles (compiled code) appear in the gutter representing the relative positions of the bad code. Hovering the mouse over those produces a pop-up display of the offending code and, in fact, the pop-up will not display if the Ctrl key is pressed at the same time. Of course, clicking on the rectangles or squares moves the editor's current line to that code as in earlier releases.
So it is not clear whether this is merely the new, intended behavior, or if more of the prior behavior remains to be implemented in 4.0. As far as I can tell, nothing important has been lost here, but that is just my opinion.

Java code editor bug

JDev Team
The code editor highlights the string inside split() in red. The message displayed is " String literal contains illegal escape character '.' "
String prodID = "10.5.1";
String[] prodLevelId = prodID.split("\\.");
Thanks

balar1,
Thanks for the feedback. I checked your testcase in more current builds and the error is no longer present, so this issue is isolated to the preview. Thanks again for making us aware of this problem.

Customizing Code Templates for the Code Editor

Our customer wants to have a standerd code edit environment for developers using Jdveloper. Therefore, there is a need to customize the Code Template for the Code Editor. The question is once after it is customized, whether it is possible to export the template to the Jdveloper setup for all the developers, and if yes, then how to? Thanks!

Just distribute the java.tpl file from the <jdev_install>\jdev\system9.0.x.x directory. That should do the trick.

Ugly fonts in code editor

I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0 with Win 7 or Win 8 and the font I choose (Consolas 12) does not display well in the code editor. The text in sample text looks good, but in the editor it's not the same. You can't distinguish the m in bold. See screenshot with anti-aliasing enabled. With and without the anti-aliasing, it's the same.
See https://www.dropbox.com/s/g6f0pma9z92nh4r/jdev.png

I choose Consolas because it's the one I used to use in Eclipse, and it's a good programming font. I also try to use Inconsolata or Source Code Pro. The first one is installed on my Windows but does not show up in the list, and the other one displays all characters as crossed square.
I also noticed that the sample text display looks good for all fonts but in the code editor, the rendering is different. Is it just me or my eye?
What monospaced (fixed-width) font do you advise?
Thanks

JDeveloper Code Editor doesn't do ClearType font anti-aliasing

I can't seem to get the Code Editor in JDeveloper (11.1.1.5.0) to do ClearType sub-pixel font anti-aliasing. Everything else in the IDE is doing proper sub-pixel anti-aliasing, it's only the Code Editor that's not doing it. It's doing "normal" pixel anti-aliasing which isn't nearly as good and still leaves the font looking quite jaggy.
I've got the following lines in my jdev.conf:
AddVMOption -Dswing.aatext=true
AddVMOption -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd
And I've checked "Enable Text Anti-Aliasing" in Preferences->Code Editor->Display.
Is sub-pixel antialiasing in the JDeveloper code editor possible? If so, how? I'm running Windows 7 btw.

No problem Timo.
I don't think it's worth opening an SR for this. It looks like sub-pixel anti-aliasing isn't supported in the JDeveloper Code Editor, which is a shame, because that's the place where it's most needed.

Moving lines in code editor

Are there any simple shortcuts in the JDev Java code editor to
- delete a line
- move line up
- move line down
I did find an older post (Re: [Survey] What are the top 3 improvments you would like to see in JDeveloper asking the same question.
I comde from an Eclipse background and am a newbie on JDev (v. 11.1.1.6).

The short cut command is
'Move Up' to move to move the line up and
'Move Down' to move the line down.
Both commands are in the 'Code Editor' category. There are no shortcut key assigned after installing JDev, but you can Assign whatever key you like.

Changes on code editor code style are not applied on restart

Jdeveloper 11.1.1.3.0
Tools > Preferences > Code Editor > Code style > Edit > Modify "Indentation Size" > OK > OK > Close Jdev > Open Jdev => modified "Indentation size" not applied.
Any solution?

hi user474075
I have noticed something similar for which I have created service request 3-1764420131 ,
which resulted in bug 9740870 , "CODE STYLE USE TAB CHARACTER ISSUE"
for which "... We are waiting for the review process of the bug to be completed. ... "
So, if you can create your own service request (at http://support.oracle.com ) and refer to bug 9740870 that might speed things up.

Inconsistency in the context menu of Code Editor tabs

Hi,
This is something I ran in to a couple of times since I migrated to jdev 9.0.4.12.80, therefore I felt the need to post it here.
Whenever I right-click on a code editor tab to close a source file, which is NOT the currently active file, the corresponding file is closed as expected. The same holds for most options. But when I select 'Run in sql*plus' (in case of a SQL file) or 'Source Control', jdev will use the currently active source file instead of the file corresponding to the tab that I clicked on. It is quite confusing when another file is processed than the file which tab I selected.
I hope this is clear enough and that it can/will be fixed in future releases.
Regards,
Patrick.

Hi Patrick,
This sounds like a weirdness (read: bug) in the document bar in 9.0.3 and 9.0.4. It seems that when support for these menu items was added to the document bar, whoever implemented it forgot to pass the correct context to commands when they're invoked from the docbar. So the commands behave just as they would if you invoke them from a main menu - i.e. the file they process is based on the currently focussed dockable.
In 10g 9.0.5, the document bar is no more, so this bug is sort of fixed.
Thanks,
Brian

Real code analyze bar in code editor

Hello all,
I talked with one of developer download the JDev, he told me that he saw a real code analyzing bar in code editor, somehow, it went away, he could not find that anymore, and he think that is great feature.
Any one have seen it? Do you know how to set that up?
Thanks.

Available Code Editor Fonts

Where does JDeveloper get its list of fonts available for the code editor (in the preferences) from? I've a fixed width font which I wish to use but it's not listed. Thanks.

Hi John,
JDeveloper gets the list of fonts to use from the JDK call:
java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment.getAvailableFontFamilyNames()
Which platform are you on? If not on Windows, I'm not sure how to setup the JDK so that it picks up the appropriate fonts. Let me know the platform (if Unix) and I can ask our resident Unix experts. If Windows, the JDK should be able to pick up any installed fonts.

File not visible in Layout Editor, but okay in Source Code Editor & Preview

I just finished editing this page, and uploaded. It is visible on www, but when I go to edit it in Layout Editor, the cursor is blinking on a white background. Nothing appears to be there. However if I change to Source Code Editor or Preview, all my data is there. Here is the link to it - www.engraversnetwork.com/uls_lasers.html.

Wow! I figured it out. I was cleaning up my meta tags and left the ">" bracket off of the end of the line. Maybe that will help someone later on

How to add a font for use by the code editor

Version 3.0.04 windows
found Preferences -> Code Editor -> Fonts
Did not see the font I would like to use in the list. The font is terminal. The font can be displayed in Control Panel -> fonts in windows.
In the help I found Edit Font Location but could not find the dialog box described in the help
Is there a procedure to add the font so SQL Dev can use it?
Thanks

Hi Dag,
Apparently editing Font Location in 3.0 applies only to ...
Tools | Preferences | Database | Export/View DDL Options | PDF Format

How to change background color in code editor?

Hi. Some of the pre-selectable Schemes under Tools->Preferences->Code Editor->PL/SQL Syntax Color (e. g. Ocean) have a "global" default background color that applies to all styles. How can I edit this color for my own color scheme?
(SQL Developer version 3.1.07)

Jeff,
if you try to change all the plsql keywords to the same background color (that is not either white or black or blue) via the options panel in SQL Developer (Code Editor > PLSQL syntax colors), you will get the new background color in the worksheet only for the areas with plsql text, while the areas without any text will have the same background color as the base color scheme you started with. This means that there is no way to change the "general background" color via the options panel, but you have to use the same background color of one of the predefined color schemes.
This seems to me a bug, but probably it's not considered high priority, so it will not be fixed for the time being.
I would like to stress the fact that being able to change the color scheme of the development environment that you use every day about 8 hours a day can make quite a difference on your eyes at the end of the day.
Thanks,
Paolo

Is there a way to restrict the cursor at the end of a line in the source code editor??

In the source code editor, the cursor will always follow where I click. But I wanna restrict it at the end of a line, just like other text editors do. Is there a option or sth? I can't put up with it any longer.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello morphe!
The source editor in the LabWindows/CVI environment is constructed under the concept of virtual space.
At the moment, in the current version of LabWindows/CVI, this is the default behavior, which cannot be changed from the editor preferences dialogs.
