6 Please send Emacs Ada mode bug reports to bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org, with
7 'ada-mode' in the subject. If possible, use M-x report-emacs-bug.
12 ** improve syntax highlighting of names after 'of', 'new', 'renames'
14 ** fix ada-format-paramlist to handle 'aliased' keyword (new in Ada
15 2012), and 'not null' without 'access'.
17 ** fix ada-find-other-file in separate bodies; now navigates to the
20 ** restore ada-indent-newline-indent for [return]
25 ** add C-c <, C-c >; goto-declaration-start, -end
27 ** improve parsing speed significantly
32 ** support expression functions
34 ** beginning-of-defun-function, end-of-defun-function are now set. A
35 "defun" is a generic, package, protected, subprogram, or task spec
38 ** C-c C-s is now bound to ada-goto-previous-pos, which goes to the
39 first position in ada-goto-pos-ring. Most navigation functions set
40 ada-goto-pos-ring. This allows easy navigation back to the start of
41 a cross-reference chain.
43 ** xref tool error handlers no longer show the xref tool buffer; the
44 new Ada menu item 'show xref tool buffer' can be used instead.
46 ** The parser supports more deeply nested case statements.
51 ** more GNAT error message auto-fixes
53 ** support aspects on subprogram declarations; format same as SPARK examples.
55 ** fix bug in ada-syntax-propertize that caused query-replace to screw up
57 ** inhibit reparse due to case adjust; case adjust entire buffer is
60 ** Non-ASCII characters supported in Ada mode buffers, including GNAT
66 ** fix another packaging bug; forgot to add files to ELPA git!
71 ** require wisi-1.0.2, to fix packaging bug
73 ** gnat-find now called with -a to include read-only .ali files in the results.
78 ** Emacs 24.2 supported, via cl-lib in Gnu ELPA
80 ** Better handling of aspects.
82 ** 'record' is aligned with 'type' in derived types
84 ** Several minor indentation bugs have been fixed.
86 ** Added "2.2 Upgrading from previous versions" to the user guide.
88 ** ada-align now properly handles subprograms with the opening paren
89 on the same line as the preceding code and code on the same line as
92 function Foo (Param_1 : Integer;
93 Param_2 : Integer) return Integer;
95 ** When no project file is selected, the default variables are
96 consistently used instead. Previously, the default variables were
97 only used when parsing a project file.
99 ** info files are properly visible in main info menu
101 ** 'C-c ;' used to run `comment-dim', which is bound to 'M-;' in the
102 global keymap. 'C-c ;' now gives an error with a message saying
108 First public release, via ELPA
113 ** first release in ELPA
115 ** Previous version was 4.00, in Emacs core. 5.0.1 is a complete
116 rewrite, using a generalized LALR parser that caches syntactic
117 information in text properties.
