New features:

• Added new settings to control blank lines after instance and static initalizers.
• To handle bigger Java source files by default the initial Java heap space of native Jindent exe files and execution scripts is now set to 256MB.

Bugfixes:

• Since Jindent version 4.0.8 a bug in Jindent's Java token manager slowed down formatting of big Java files and disabled recognition of empty method declarations. This is fixed now.
• The XML Bean encoder of Java 6.0 has changed its policy to access getters of boolean bean properties. This affects Jindent's sorting tree elements and causes a partial loss of Jindent's configuration data while saving settings. This is fixed now.
• In some special cases Jindent's alignment algorithm removed white spaces from nested ternary expressions. This is fixed now.
• Outdent of commented out Java source code did still not work properly. This is finally fixed now.
• Fixed a grammar bug for combinations of Annotations and final modifiers in parameter declarations of methods and constructors.
• Saving of encoding settings did not work properly if selected encoding was the same as the system's default encoding. This is fixed.
• Block comments beginning with an html tag like: /*<tag> ... were not recognized correctly. This is fixed.
• Fixed some minor GUI layouting issues.

Bugfixes:

• Blank lines after SQLJ statements did not work. This is fixed now.

New features:

• Added new feature to automatic format Java content after opening in Eclipse editor window and before saving Java content from editor window.
• Since the JRE 1.5.0 Update 07 release Mac OS supports a proper AWT-SWT bridge. The Jindent plugin is now able to embed Jindent's preference panels into the Eclipse SWT GUI.

Bugfixes:

• Line wrapping settings always, if line exceeds and never had no effect for constructor and method call arguments used in variable and field declarations. This is fixed now.
• First column JavaDocs were treated as first column comments. This is fixed.
• Blank lines insertion for headers/footers did not work properly for some configurations. As a result unexpected blank lines could be inserted before/after headers and footers. This is fixed.
• Improved Jindent default settings for header/footer handling.
• Parse error occured in certain generic declarations used as return types in method declarations. This is fixed.
• //J- //J+ code blocks could be messed up by sorting source code elements. This is fixed.
• Setting Combine padding parentheses did not work properly for empty parentheses (). This is fixed.
• Indent/outdent of commented out source code did not work properly for some block and end-of-line comments. This is fixed now.
• Sorting and changing the order of initialized field declarations were not possible to avoid runtime side effects in Java code. Jindent is now able to detect field assignments to primitive values. The order of these fields can be changed without any expected different runtime behaviour.
  
  Before:
  

  // Assignments to primitive values
  int    c = 100 / 10;
  String b = "Hello World !";
  int[]  a = new int[]{ 1, 2, 3, 4 }; 

  
  Now:
  

  // Assignments to primitive values
  int[]  a = new int[]{ 1, 2, 3, 4 };
  String b = "Hello World !";
  int    c = 100 / 10;

• Fixed some typos in the GUI.

Bugfixes:

• Added deprecated command line argument -noswing from Jindent 3.x to preserve backward compatibility in shell scripts.
  
• Command line argument -s which is a shortcut for -set and -p had no effect. This is fixed now.
  

New feature:

• Added Jindent command for shortkey assignment to invoke Jindent easily from editor window.

Bugfixes:

• Jindent's preferences froze up on Linux OS. This is fixed now.
• NullPointerException could be thrown if plugin lost focus on Java editor window. This is fixed.
• Fixed some problems regarding MacOS detection and invocation of Jindent's customizer from the Eclipse preferences.
