java plugin and comments

Post by bugsBunny »

I've just noticed that if I use the jacobe plugin for java source, the diff output nicely lines up the text, which it always did. What I don't understand is that single line ( // type ) and javadoc (/** */ type) comments no longer get skipped while (/* */ type) do, although checked in Ignore Comments. Not using the plugin, skips all types of comments (thus leading me to suspect that the regex for comments is not the issue), but formatting causes differences to be displayed. Is this a known issue with plugins?

thanks,
Robert

You are correct, it's a known bug. The fix appears in (not yet officially released) 3.4.3. Please download it from http://www.prestosoft.com/download/edpro343.exe and let us know the results.
