Hi all,
MTJ's "edit source code" features (i.e. source editor features) should
take into account the needs of the mobile developer.
Can I have some input from the group about *what* kind of needs the
mobile developer might/would have, in terms of source code editing?
Thanks.

Steven,
It seems to me that source code editing is pretty much identical for the
mobile cases versus standard JDT. The only place I see a potential for
some added functionality is when we eventually move into handling the
"device fragmentation" cases. In those cases, I presume we will have
some amount of preprocessing directives. In those cases, I think we
will want to have a few more things:
- Content assist for the preprocessing directives
- Syntax highlighting for preprocessing directives, including
highlighting of conditional blocks that are not currently enabled
- Folding of conditional blocks to hide blocks that are not of interest
in the current configuration
Those are the things I can think of off the top of my head. Those are
all longer term issues that I don't see being tackled in an early
release. I do think it makes sense to figure some of this out, even if
it is not going to be added to the project in the short term.

Hello all, I am an interested J2ME developer that plans to follow this
project from an arms length (mainly as I don't have time to delve much
deeper) but will throw my 2c in when I see something relevant to me.
I agree with Craig but I see those as high priority in terms of source
code editing. I use Eclipse for my daily J2ME coding and my biggest
headache is lack of support for preprocessor directives.
Antenna is a widely used J2ME tool and I think it would be wise to adopt
it's preprocessor style (which, I'm told, is basically the same as the
standard C preprocessor).
Advanced preprocessing in the form of Macro expansion -- our tools team
has hacked up Antenna somewhat for that =) -- would be another big plus
but I would rank that lower priority then the basic preproc directive
parsing.
