12 ** add C-c <, C-c >; goto-declaration-start, -end
14 ** improve parsing speed significantly
19 ** support expression functions
21 ** beginning-of-defun-function, end-of-defun-function are now set. A
22 "defun" is a generic, package, protected, subprogram, or task spec
25 ** C-c C-s is now bound to ada-goto-previous-pos, which goes to the
26 first position in ada-goto-pos-ring. Most navigation functions set
27 ada-goto-pos-ring. This allows easy navigation back to the start of
28 a cross-reference chain.
30 ** xref tool error handlers no longer show the xref tool buffer; the
31 new Ada menu item 'show xref tool buffer' can be used instead.
33 ** The parser supports more deeply nested case statements.
38 ** more GNAT error message auto-fixes
40 ** support aspects on subprogram declarations; format same as SPARK examples.
42 ** fix bug in ada-syntax-propertize that caused query-replace to screw up
44 ** inhibit reparse due to case adjust; case adjust entire buffer is
47 ** Non-ASCII characters supported in Ada mode buffers, including GNAT
53 ** fix another packaging bug; forgot to add files to ELPA git!
58 ** require wisi-1.0.2, to fix packaging bug
60 ** gnat-find now called with -a to include read-only .ali files in the results.
65 ** Emacs 24.2 supported, via cl-lib in Gnu ELPA
67 ** Better handling of aspects.
69 ** 'record' is aligned with 'type' in derived types
71 ** Several minor indentation bugs have been fixed.
73 ** Added "2.2 Upgrading from previous versions" to the user guide.
75 ** ada-align now properly handles subprograms with the opening paren
76 on the same line as the preceding code and code on the same line as
79 function Foo (Param_1 : Integer;
80 Param_2 : Integer) return Integer;
82 ** When no project file is selected, the default variables are
83 consistently used instead. Previously, the default variables were
84 only used when parsing a project file.
86 ** info files are properly visible in main info menu
88 ** 'C-c ;' used to run `comment-dim', which is bound to 'M-;' in the
89 global keymap. 'C-c ;' now gives an error with a message saying
95 First public release, via ELPA
100 ** first release in ELPA
102 ** Previous version was 4.00, in Emacs core. 5.0.1 is a complete
103 rewrite, using a generalized LALR parser that caches syntactic
104 information in text properties.
