Learning Python and using Oxygen Eclipse with PyDev 7.2. Noticed that when I try a simple multiply 2 * 8 that * is not displayed. After I type * and nothing is displayed, I need to press 8 key twice before 8 is displayed. Other characters are fine. Seems odd that * is not displayed.
Keyboard is fine because * is displayed in Word, Notepad and also in PythonWin.
thanks
Reinstalled Eclipse and PyDev and issue went away and now * is displaying as expected. That was an odd problem

I recently updated Netbeans from 12.0 to 12.1 on my Ubuntu 18.04 platform and I have noticed that code assistance has stopped working on C header files (*.h). Among other issues:
Selecting a hyphenated name like MY_C_MACRO by double clicking on it doesn't work; it only selects a token from the name ("MY", "C" or "MACRO") instead of the whole word.
Ctrl-clicking on a name doesn't switch to the definition of that name anymore.
Auto-tabbing doesn't work anymore (hitting ENTER brings the cursor to the beginning of the next line instead of placing it below the previous line's beginning.
Typing /** and hitting ENTER doesn't automatically insert the template for documenting the symbol below anymore.
Has anyone found the same problem and know how to fix it?
I can put any kind of jibberish tags in the file and no warnings/errors are flagged.
Also, ctrl + shift + / doesn't work for adding block comments.
I tried to use the JBOSS tools, but that didn't help.
I'm running the indigo release on Windows Vista.
I have set both the print margin in General -> Editors -> Text Editors and the maximum line width in Java -> Code Style -> Formatter to 100 characters, yet it is still determined to wrap my comments at column 80.
For example, when this is typed at the top of my file:
(longest lines are 90 and 94 characters respectively)
// This comment is over 80 characters long, but it is in no way over 100 characters long.
/*
* The same problem occurs in block comments as well. True, neither problem is code breaking,
* but it certainly is annoying all the same.
*/
It is formatted to:
(lines are 73 and 79 characters respectively)
// This comment is over 80 characters long, but it is in no way over 100
// characters long.
/*
* The same problem occurs in block comments as well. True, neither problem is
* code breaking,
* but it certainly is annoying all the same.
*/
I have tried restarting Java and have hit every "apply" button I can find, but to no avail. It does not appear to be listed as a known issue in the release notes. Is there something I'm missing? Something simple perhaps?
At least on Eclipse Helios (3.6), there's a separate "Comments"-tab on the Formatter-settings, which has its own "Maximum line width for comments"-setting.
In IDEA you had the possibility to put your cursor on all lines.
Is this possible in Eclipse?
Eclipse 3.5 should have a column mode (which is what I think you're asking about) - use Alt+Shift+A:
http://update.eclipse.org/downloads/drops/R-3.5-200906111540/eclipse-news-part1.html#Text
I haven't tried this since I'm stuck at version 3.4.1 for the time being. There's a patch that claims to work for 3.4.0 (http://tkilla.ch/column_mode/), but it's not working for my 3.4.1 install.
If you refer to the ability to select a group of lines (like a all function), you can use the outline view

From there, you can move/rearrange/delete all block of text.
If it is about column mode, see my answer here.

I'm a long-time eclipse user looking to use netbeans now that I've tried netbeans out a bit. I mostly like what I see, except there's a few aesthetics missing. Anyone have ideas on if the following are available in NetBeans?:
Eclipse highlights modified & inserted lines in the left margin / gutter
Eclipse highlights the currently edited function in the left margin / gutter
Eclipse highlights TODO / FIXME comments in the right margin
For example:
alt text http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/5471/forso.png
... any ideas on how I can get Netbeans to do this sort if stuff ?
If your project is connected to source control netbeans will show added lines with a green block at the beginning of the line, modified lines with a blue block, and deleted lines with a red arrow. It also marks these in the right margin/gutter. This is based off of compared to last commit, not last save however.
As for the other two I could not find a way to implement them but I may just be missing something
