Description cberger 2004-02-04 20:22:29 UTC
Tiger alpha release has been available for download
for over a month now. Many PPL were using the
Generics prototype before.

The problem is that with a tiny program like:

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Map<String, String> env = System.getenv();
        for(String s:env.keySet())
            System.out.println(s);
    }

ALL LINES APPEAR IN READ (ERROR).

I'm not asking for complete support of the new
features, but it would really help PPL and make
the IDE more attractive if the error parser in
the editor would be more permissive with the new
syntax and the new commands.

Putting P1 because that's my main usability
problem with netbean 3.6 now (unless I've missed
some settings of course).

BTW: NetBeans runs fine with 1.5_ALPHA AFAIK, and
compiling the above program is easy by just adding
-source 1.5 and -target 1.5 to the compile line.
