Hi Paul,
Thanks for your quick response. Unfortunately, I'm a bit confused, namely,
"msg" doesn't seem to be nil. The following code shows this:
;; To be used as a hook at the end of a java compilation
(defun end-of-java-compile (bufname msg)
"To be used as a hook at the end of a java compilation"
(if (not (eq (string-match "finished" msg) nil))
(progn
(message "This works here.")
(message msg)
(jde-run)
)
)
)
The output:
This works here.
finished
^^^^^^^^
error in process sentinel: Wrong type argument: stringp, nil [2 times]
It seems that the "messages" work fine, only "jde-run" doesn't want to run
for some reason.
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Daniel
P.S. When you suggested to use "jde-compile-finish-hook" did you mean like
this:
;; Set function to be called at end of java compilation
(setq jde-compile-finish-hook 'end-of-java-compile)
