Hi Steve I'm testing your experimental versions of the following packages: jde-1.25-pkg.tar.gz semantic-1.05-pkg.tar.gz eieio-1.01-pkg.tar.gz - seems to work Here a couple of problems with your versions of semantic, and jde: First of all jde-1.25-pkg.tar.gz is missing jde-package.el/elc. If I copy that from the normal jde distribution jde starts up. JDE and JDebug docu are not found through menu. This is because first, JDE docu is missing from your tar.gz file and second, the lisp code is searching for the html files under the wrong directories. This fixes the directories: diff -c /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/jde/jde.el~ /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/jde/jde.el *** /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/jde/jde.el~ Sat Mar 10 23:05:58 2001 --- /usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/jde/jde.el Sat Mar 10 23:05:58 2001 *************** *** 1289,1295 **** (if jde-dir (if (and jde-xemacsp (locate-data-directory "jde")) !

This results in not loading the applet in the JDE help files. o The import class and implement interface wizards give errors of the following kind: Imported java.applet.Applet Invalid function: (macro . #<compiled-function (token) "...(6)" [token semantic-overlay-start semantic-token-overlay] 3 ("/usr/local/lib/xemacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/semantic/semantic-util.elc" . 1624)>) This seems to be related with the byte compilation of semantic. It used to work with semantic when it's not byte compiled. Anyway both commands produce the desired output but the error messages are annoying. Ciao Volker
