Hi,
I was trying to configure JDE using the jde-mode-hook function
and noticed a minor (but critical) typo in the User's Guide.
Below is an excerpt of the relevant section of the JDE user's guide.
You can customize the JDE by defining a JDE mode hook
function in your .emacs file. The following is an example of
how to do this:
(defun my-jde-mode-hook ()
(message "my-jde-mode-hook function executed"))
(add-hook 'jde-mode-hooks 'my-jde-mode-hook)
The preceding example defines a JDE mode hook function named
my-jde-mode-hook
and adds it to the list of JDE mode hook functions, using the
Emacs Lisp
function add-hook. Now, whenever you open a Java source file,
jde-mode
invokes the function my-jde-mode-hook.
I copied these three lines to my .emacs file, but couldn't see this
message. It took me a while to figure out that the third line should
be (add-hook 'jde-mode-hook 'my-jde-mode-hook)! Software programs
can be sooo picky! :-) Maybe this would have been obvious to some
one more proficient in Emacs/Lisp.
Other than this, my experience with JDE so far has been excellent!
Thanks,
Suresh
