Umm, should not be hard to do. The problem will be with <> chars that are part of conditions (eg. in 'if' statement), because the braces matcher does not have semantic information. IIRC, we already have an enhancement for this. Unfortunately, I think it is quite hard to do - parse trees are not available during bracket matching. |
Netbeans should support highlight matching brackets for Generics <> brackets the same way it currently highlights matching block braces {}.
