even tried it with javac 1.5
however I don't fully understand the line move part of the sed script,
can you explain what the results of the sed script would be on the
previous javac error for example?
Also FYI to replace characters you can use
tr -t '\t' ' '
My version of sed
sed --version
GNU sed version 4.1.5

Thanks for that, I am using the efm but finds it drops the first

Ok, I dont profess to know much about efm vim etc but I changed the %Z
to %A and it now gets the new line. something about multiline messages
I don't understand.
It sounds suspiciously like the sed filter script I included isn't
working properly. '%Z' signifies the end of an error, '%A' signifies the
start of one. Can you verify that 'makeprg' is set to use the filter:
(in vim, while editing a java file:)
:set makeprg?
makeprg=javac % 2>&1 \| vim-javac-filter
... and that it transforms javac output correctly? For example, with
this file:
(contents of example-javac-error.txt:)
org/datagrok/application/Application.java:20: <identifier> expected
d
^
1 error
... you should see something like this when you run the filter:
(on the command line:)
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/lib/java$ vim-javac-filter example-javac-error.txt
d
^
org/datagrok/application/Application.java:20: <identifier> expected
1 error
Also, are you doing anything else differently than I am? Calling javac
from a Makefile or an Ant script maybe? Anything that would change how
I expect the output to look?
This helped me debug the errorformat, you probably have some other
wizardry.
No wizardry here; I use 'tee' to save a copy of the output before vim
gets ahold of it, then I 'watch cat' that temporary file.
Good luck and thanks for helping me improve this.
