***************************************************************

* Now caches the class list for each project. This avoids the
  need to rescan jde-global-classpath everytime you switch
  projects.

  Thanks to Matt Conway ([EMAIL PROTECTED] ).

* User can now force the JDE to use either wget or url-file-exists 
  to verify existence of a remote file.

  Thanks to Luis Miguel Hernanz Iglesias 
  <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for suggesting this enhancement.

* Added jde-ant.el to distribution.

* Removed senator package from the JDE distribution. (The semantic
  package now includes senator.)

* Changes name of jde-show-class-source to jde-open-class-source
  and created jde-show-class-source as an alias.

* Adds jde-open-base-class-source command.

  This command was borrowed from the java-open library.

* Added else-if control flow template. 

  Thanks to "Javier Lopez" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Fixes import insertion point bug.

  Thanks to "Javier Lopez" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

* Fixed NT/XEmacs incompatibility in jde-package.el caused by XEmacs' 
  use of back slash as the directory path separator.

  Thanks to David Ponce.

* Fixes bug in completion of methods and fields of current class.

  Thanks to Javier Lopez.

* Adds a control flow template for a for iterator loop. 

  Thanks to Robert Mecklenburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

* Completion enhancements and bug fixes:

  -- Completion list now includes private methods of the current class 
     and protected methods of the super class.

  -- Now sorts the possible completions in alphabetical order.

  -- Handles completion on instances returned by constructors, e.g.,
     new Vector(). and of arguments passed to constructors, e.g.,
     v.add(get.
               ^

  -- Fixes bug that prevented completion of  super class methods, 
     i.e. super.ge...

     Thanks to Javier Lopez <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

  -- Completion now works for instances of inner classes in many cases. 
     The inner class must be declared before it is referenced for 
     completion to work. Future releases will fix this and other 
     deficiencies in inner class handling. 

     Thanks to "Evan Easton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

* The interface wizard now includes a valid return statement 
  in methods that return a value. 
 
  Thanks to "Craig McGeachie" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
