line numbers

Post by rpcinmn »

I have a line of xml that looks like this:
<requestClassName>com.tlrg.nsa.jal.sso.impl.SsoTokenValidateRequestImpl</requestClassName>

This is all on one line of source code. Yet when it appears in EDP it is spread across two numbered lines, like this:
<requestClassName>
com.tlrg.nsa.jal.sso.impl.SsoTokenValidateRequestImpl</requestClassName>

When I am dealing with a file of several thousand lines of xml, this makes it very difficult to correlate between EDP and the same file as it's displayed in my IDE.

How can I make EDP display content using the same line numbering scheme that other editors or IDEs use?

I should add that I am using an evaluation of EDP, so maybe some things might works differently than a paid version?

Thanks.

What is most likely happening here is that the XML plug-in is on. Try disabling it by going to Options | Plug-ins.

Unselecting the xml plug-in didn't help. But unselecting the "Use plug-ins in file comparision" box did the trick.

Thanks.

I forgot to mention that there are two XML plug-ins: XML Canonicalize
and XML Format. You had to unselect both of them. Unselecting the "Use
plug-ins in file comparison" disables all plug-ins, not just XML, for
file comparison -- unless that's what you want.
