Any workaround, before we get that new package? Andy Piper wrote:

There are a lot of variables here, but basically attached is the backtrace I get for one case (I'm executing JDEbug->Exit Debugger). Version info: emacs version: XEmacs 2.14 (patch 10) on sparc-sun-solaris2.8 Solaris version: SunOS ketu 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-60 java version: java version "1.3.1_02" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_02-b02, mixed mode) JDE XEmacs package version: 1.38 updated all XEmacs required packages for JDE as of this morning using xemacs.org server. I did start up xemacs with "xemacs -q" I say there are lots of variables because: - I had at one point used pre-releases of XEmacs packages. I was thinking perhaps that had something to do with it, so I removed all pre-released packages and re-downloaded the released versions from xemacs.org Signaling: (void-variable old-assoc) #<compiled-function (assoc) "...(24)" [result old-assoc finish-cmd process jde-dbs-finish-process format "finish %d" eieio-oref id :process jde-dbs-cmd-exec jde-dbs-proc-move-to-morgue] 6>((1 .
