Emacs is magic!

@dpsutton I have downgraded to JDK 13 and cider seems to be working for me now. I'm pretty sure this is the same problem reported by @grounded_sage on 12 October in this channel. Do we need to raise a bug report for this?

@tim.j.robinson one already exists.

Generally it's a good idea to stick to the lts releases of java

Ah - thanks again - I didn't realise Java had LTS but I see it now.

I've been using mostly JDK 14 lately and I haven't noticed the issue that was mentioned here. That being said, often JDK upgrades break something as cider-nrepl relied on some internal APIs to provide optimal functionality, mostly for discovering Java metadata and parsing JavaDoc.

From the messages on other forums I got the impression the problem was new in 15 but since @dpsutton suggested 13 I thought that would probably be safer.

Sorry I should have linked that issue to you. Instead of vaguely describe it. My bad

Is there a shortcut to really quickly switch to the repl buffer?

I think there’s a cider-switch-to-repl-buffer. Just hit m-x and hopefully you can search through the autocomplete

ah i will alias that to a good key combo 🙂

“It is bound to C-c C-z”

I knew this! There are just so many shortcuts 😕

Learn three things and use the short cuts for a week. Then keep repeating

two decades of emacs, just not a lot of cider 🙂

Ha sorry. There’s insane differences in experience through here. Sometimes someone completely new to programming and CIDER and sometimes people who contribute to emacs itself :) no offense intended

no worries

maybe i can work on a nice cheat sheet during the xmas holiday
