30 1. Introduction *netbeans-intro* | |
31 | |
1620 | 32 The NetBeans interface was initially developed to integrate Vim into the |
33 NetBeans Java IDE, using the external editor plugin. This NetBeans plugin no | |
34 longer exists for recent versions of NetBeans but the protocol was developed | |
35 in such a way that any IDE can use it to integrate Vim. | |
36 | |
37 The NetBeans protocol of Vim is a text based communication protocol, over a | |
38 classical TCP socket. There is no dependency on Java or NetBeans. Any language | |
39 or environment providing a socket interface can control Vim using this | |
40 protocol. There are existing implementations in C, C++, Python and Java. The | |
41 name NetBeans is kept today for historical reasons. | |

1620 | 68 In the rest of this help page, we will use the term "Vim Controller" to |
69 describe the program controlling Vim through the NetBeans socket interface. | |
70 | |
71 | |
72 About the NetBeans IDE ~ | |
73 | |
7 | 74 NetBeans is an open source Integrated Development Environment developed |
75 jointly by Sun Microsystems, Inc. and the netbeans.org developer community. | |
76 Initially just a Java IDE, NetBeans has had C, C++, and Fortran support added | |
77 in recent releases. | |
78 | |
1620 | 79 For more information visit the main NetBeans web site http://www.netbeans.org. |
1668 | 80 The External Editor is now, unfortunately, declared obsolete. See |
1620 | 81 http://externaleditor.netbeans.org. |
7 | 82 |
83 Sun Microsystems, Inc. also ships NetBeans under the name Sun ONE Studio. | |
84 Visit http://www.sun.com for more information regarding the Sun ONE Studio | |
85 product line. | |
86 | |
87 Current releases of NetBeans provide full support for Java and limited support | |
236 | 88 for C, C++, and Fortran. Current releases of Sun ONE Studio provide full |
7 | 89 support for Java, C, C++, and Fortran. |

91 ============================================================================== | |
1620 | 92 2. Integration features *netbeans-integration* |
7 | 93 |
1620 | 94 The NetBeans socket interface of Vim allows to get information from Vim or to |
95 ask Vim to perform specific actions: | |
96 - get information about buffer: buffer name, cursor position, buffer content, | |
97 etc. | |
98 - be notified when buffers are open or closed | |
99 - be notified of how the buffer content is modified | |
100 - load and save files | |
101 - modify the buffer content | |
102 - installing special key bindings | |
103 - raise the window, control the window geometry | |
7 | 104 |
1620 | 105 For sending key strokes to Vim or for evaluating functions in Vim, you must |
106 use the |clientserver| interface. | |
7 | 107 |
108 | |
109 ============================================================================== | |
110 3. Configuring Vim for NetBeans *netbeans-configure* | |

115 | |
1620 | 116 On Unix: |
117 -------- | |
7 | 118 |
119 When running configure without arguments the NetBeans interface should be | |
120 included. That is, if the configure check to find out if your system supports | |
121 the required features succeeds. | |
122 | |
123 In case you do not want the NetBeans interface you can disable it by | |
124 uncommenting a line with "--disable-netbeans" in the Makefile. | |

148 | |
149 To use XPM signs on Win32 (e.g. when using with NetBeans) you can compile | |
150 XPM by yourself or use precompiled libraries from http://iamphet.nm.ru/misc/ | |
151 (for MS Visual C++) or http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net (for MinGW). | |
152 | |
1620 | 153 Enable debugging: |
154 ----------------- | |
7 | 155 |
1620 | 156 To enable debugging of Vim and of the NetBeans protocol, the "NBDEBUG" macro |
157 needs to be defined. Search in the Makefile of the platform you are using for | |
158 "NBDEBUG" to see what line needs to be uncommented. This effectively adds | |
159 "-DNBDEBUG" to the compile command. Also see |netbeans-debugging| | |

7 | 187 |
188 *E658* | |
1620 | 189 Connection lost for this buffer |
190 The Vim Controller has become confused about the state of | |
191 this file. Rather than risk data corruption, it has severed | |
192 the connection for this file. Vim will take over | |
193 responsibility for saving changes to this file and the | |
194 Vim Controller will no longer know of these changes. | |
7 | 195 |
146 | 196 *E744* |
1620 | 197 Read-only file |
146 | 198 Vim normally allows changes to a read-only file and only |
199 enforces the read-only rule if you try to write the file. | |
200 However, NetBeans does not let you make changes to a file | |
1620 | 201 which is read-only and becomes confused if Vim does this. |
202 So Vim does not allow modifications to files when run | |
203 in NetBeans mode. | |

223 When started from within Vim, the |:nbstart| optional argument may be: |

226 :{hostname}:{addr}:{password} directly | |
227 <MISSING ARGUMENT> from a file or environment | |
228 | |
7 | 229 *E660* *E668* |
2210 | 230 When NetBeans is started from the command line, for security reasons, the best |
231 method is to write the information in a file readable only by the user. The | |
232 name of the file can be passed with the "-nb={fname}" argument or, when "-nb" | |
233 is used without a parameter, the environment variable "__NETBEANS_CONINFO". | |
234 The file must contain these three lines, in any order: | |
7 | 235 |
236 host={hostname} | |
237 port={addr} | |
238 auth={password} | |
239 | |
2210 | 240 Other lines are ignored. The Vim Controller is responsible for deleting the |
7 | 241 file afterwards. |
242 | |
1620 | 243 {hostname} is the name of the machine where Vim Controller is running. When |
244 omitted the environment variable "__NETBEANS_HOST" is used or the default | |
245 "localhost". | |
7 | 246 |
1620 | 247 {addr} is the port number for the NetBeans interface. When omitted the |
248 environment variable "__NETBEANS_SOCKET" is used or the default 3219. | |
7 | 249 |
250 {password} is the password for connecting to NetBeans. When omitted the | |
251 environment variable "__NETBEANS_VIM_PASSWORD" is used or "changeme". | |
252 | |
1620 | 253 Vim will initiate a socket connection (client side) to the specified host and |
254 port upon startup. The password will be sent with the AUTH event when the | |
255 connection has been established. | |
256 | |
7 | 257 |
1620 | 258 ============================================================================== |
259 6. NetBeans protocol *netbeans-protocol* | |
260 | |
261 The communication between the Vim Controller and Vim uses plain text | |
262 messages. This protocol was first designed to work with the external editor | |
263 module of NetBeans. Later it was extended to work with Agide (A-A-P GUI IDE, | |
264 see http://www.a-a-p.org) and then with other IDE. The extensions are marked | |
265 with "version 2.1". | |
7 | 266 |
236 | 267 Version 2.2 of the protocol has several minor changes which should only affect |
268 NetBeans users (ie, not Agide users). However, a bug was fixed which could | |
269 cause confusion. The netbeans_saved() function sent a "save" protocol | |
270 command. In protocol version 2.1 and earlier this was incorrectly interpreted | |
271 as a notification that a write had taken place. In reality, it told NetBeans | |
272 to save the file so multiple writes were being done. This caused various | |
273 problems and has been fixed in 2.2. To decrease the likelihood of this | |
7 | 274 confusion happening again, netbeans_saved() has been renamed to |
275 netbeans_save_buffer(). | |

7 | 280 The messages are currently sent over a socket. Since the messages are in |
281 plain UTF-8 text this protocol could also be used with any other communication | |
282 mechanism. | |
283 | |
3151 | 284 Netbeans messages are processed when Vim is idle, waiting for user input. |
285 When Vim is run in non-interactive mode, for example when running an automated | |
286 test case that sources a Vim script, the idle loop may not be called often | |
3312 | 287 enough. In that case, insert |:sleep| commands in the Vim script. The |:sleep| |
3151 | 288 command does invoke Netbeans messages processing. |

1620 | 299 6.1 Kinds of messages *nb-messages* |
7 | 300 |
301 There are four kinds of messages: | |
302 | |
303 kind direction comment ~ | |
304 Command IDE -> editor no reply necessary | |
305 Function IDE -> editor editor must send back a reply | |
306 Reply editor -> IDE only in response to a Function | |
307 Event editor -> IDE no reply necessary | |
308 | |
309 The messages are sent as a single line with a terminating newline character. | |
310 Arguments are separated by a single space. The first item of the message | |
311 depends on the kind of message: | |
312 | |
313 kind first item example ~ | |
314 Command bufID:name!seqno 11:showBalloon!123 "text" | |
315 Function bufID:name/seqno 11:getLength/123 | |

321 6.2 Terms *nb-terms* | |
7 | 322 |
323 bufID Buffer number. A message may be either for a specific buffer | |
324 or generic. Generic messages use a bufID of zero. NOTE: this | |
325 buffer ID is assigned by the IDE, it is not Vim's buffer | |
326 number. The bufID must be a sequentially rising number, | |
6697 | 327 starting at one. When the 'switchbuf' option is set to |
328 "usetab" and the "bufID" buffer is not found in the current | |
329 tab page, the netbeans commands and functions that set this | |
330 buffer as the current buffer will jump to the first open | |
331 window that contains this buffer in other tab pages instead of | |
332 replacing the buffer in the current window. | |
7 | 333 |
334 seqno The IDE uses a sequence number for Commands and Functions. A | |
335 Reply must use the sequence number of the Function that it is | |
336 associated with. A zero sequence number can be used for | |
337 Events (the seqno of the last received Command or Function can | |
338 also be used). | |
339 | |
340 string Argument in double quotes. Text is in UTF-8 encoding. This | |
341 means ASCII is passed as-is. Special characters are | |
342 represented with a backslash: | |
343 \" double quote | |
344 \n newline | |
345 \r carriage-return | |
346 \t tab (optional, also works literally) | |
347 \\ backslash | |
348 NUL bytes are not allowed! | |
349 | |
350 boolean Argument with two possible values: | |
351 T true | |
352 F false | |
353 | |
354 number Argument with a decimal number. | |

360 New in version 2.5. |
7 | 361 |
362 offset A number argument that indicates a byte position in a buffer. | |
363 The first byte has offset zero. Line breaks are counted for | |
364 how they appear in the file (CR/LF counts for two bytes). | |
21991 | 365 Note that a multibyte character is counted for the number of |
7 | 366 bytes it takes. |
367 | |
368 lnum/col Argument with a line number and column number position. The | |
369 line number starts with one, the column is the byte position, | |
21991 | 370 starting with zero. Note that a multibyte character counts |
7 | 371 for several columns. |
372 | |

387 annotation, used to be able to remove | |
388 it | |
389 typeNum number sequence number of the annotation | |
390 defined with defineAnnoType for this | |
391 buffer | |
392 off number offset where annotation is to be placed | |
393 len number not used | |
394 In version 2.1 "lnum/col" can be used instead of "off". | |

399 close Close the buffer. This leaves us without current buffer, very | |
400 dangerous to use! | |
401 | |
402 create Creates a buffer without a name. Replaces the current buffer | |
403 (it's hidden when it was changed). | |
1620 | 404 The Vim Controller should use this as the first command for a |
405 file that is being opened. The sequence of commands could be: | |
7 | 406 create |
407 setCaretListener (ignored) | |
408 setModified (no effect) | |

427 When color is a name, this color is defined both for Vim |
14347 | 428 running in a color terminal and for gVim. |
7 | 429 When both "fg" and "bg" are "none" no line highlighting is |
430 used (new in version 2.1). | |
431 When "glyphFile" is empty, no text sign is used (new in | |
432 version 2.1). | |
433 When "glyphFile" is one or two characters long, a text sign is | |
434 defined (new in version 2.1). | |
435 Note: the annotations will be defined in sequence, and the | |
436 sequence number is later used with addAnno. | |
437 | |
438 editFile pathname | |
439 Set the name for the buffer and edit the file "pathname", a | |
440 string argument. | |
1620 | 441 Normal way for the IDE to tell the editor to edit a file. |
442 | |
443 You must set a bufId different of 0 with this command to | |
444 assign a bufId to the buffer. It will trigger an event | |
445 fileOpened with a bufId of 0 but the buffer has been assigned. | |
446 | |
447 If the IDE is going to pass the file text to the editor use | |
448 these commands instead: | |
7 | 449 setFullName |
450 insert | |

452 New in version 2.1. | |

454 enableBalloonEval | |
455 Not implemented. | |
456 | |
457 endAtomic End an atomic operation. The changes between "startAtomic" | |
458 and "endAtomic" can be undone as one operation. But it's not | |
459 implemented yet. Redraw when necessary. | |
460 | |
461 guard off len | |
462 Mark an area in the buffer as guarded. This means it cannot | |
463 be edited. "off" and "len" are numbers and specify the text | |
464 to be guarded. | |
465 | |
466 initDone Mark the buffer as ready for use. Implicitly makes the buffer | |
467 the current buffer. Fires the BufReadPost autocommand event. | |

536 | |
537 setExitDelay seconds | |
538 Set the delay for exiting to "seconds", a number. | |
539 This delay is used to give the IDE a chance to handle things | |

547 Used when the IDE wants to edit a file under control of the | |
548 IDE. This makes the buffer the current buffer, but does not | |

629 seqno = sequence number of the function | |
630 bufID = buffer ID of the current buffer (if this is unknown -1 | |

7 | 653 getModified When a buffer is specified: Return zero if the buffer does not |
654 have changes, one if it does have changes. | |
655 When no buffer is specified (buffer number zero): Return the | |
656 number of buffers with changes. When the result is zero it's | |
657 safe to tell Vim to exit. | |
658 New in version 2.1. | |
659 | |
660 getText Return the contents of the buffer as a string. | |
661 Reply example for a buffer with two lines | |
662 123 "first line\nsecond line\n" | |
663 NOTE: docs indicate an offset and length argument, but this is | |
664 not implemented. | |
665 | |
666 insert off text | |
667 Insert "text" before position "off". "text" is a string | |
668 argument, "off" a number. | |
1620 | 669 "text" should have a "\n" (newline) at the end of each line. |
718 | 670 Or "\r\n" when 'fileformat' is "dos". When using "insert" in |
671 an empty buffer Vim will set 'fileformat' accordingly. | |
672 When "off" points to the start of a line the text is inserted | |
673 above this line. Thus when "off" is zero lines are inserted | |
674 before the first line. | |
675 When "off" points after the start of a line, possibly on the | |
676 NUL at the end of a line, the first line of text is appended | |
677 to this line. Further lines come below it. | |

708 is zero, there is no selection and the pointer is at position | |
709 "off". When "len" is non-zero the text from position "off" to | |
710 "off" + "len" is selected. | |
711 Only sent after "enableBalloonEval" was used for this buffer. | |
712 "type" is not yet defined. | |
713 Not implemented yet. | |

895 9. Debugging NetBeans protocol *netbeans-debugging* | |
896 | |
897 To debug the Vim protocol, you must first compile Vim with debugging support | |
898 and NetBeans debugging support. See |netbeans-configure| for instructions | |
899 about Vim compiling and how to enable debug support. | |
900 | |
901 When running Vim, set the following environment variables: | |
902 | |
903 export SPRO_GVIM_DEBUG=netbeans.log | |
904 export SPRO_GVIM_DLEVEL=0xffffffff | |
905 | |
906 Vim will then log all the incoming and outgoing messages of the NetBeans | |
907 protocol to the file netbeans.log . | |
908 | |
909 The content of netbeans.log after a session looks like this: | |
910 Tue May 20 17:19:27 2008 | |
911 EVT: 0:startupDone=0 | |
912 CMD 1: (1) create | |

929 10. NetBeans External Editor | |
930 | |
931 NOTE: This information is obsolete! Only relevant if you are using an old | |
932 version of NetBeans. | |
933 | |
934 | |
935 10.1. Downloading NetBeans *netbeans-download* | |
936 | |
937 The NetBeans IDE is available for download from netbeans.org. You can download | |
938 a released version, download sources, or use CVS to download the current | |
939 source tree. If you choose to download sources, follow directions from | |
940 netbeans.org on building NetBeans. | |
941 | |
942 Depending on the version of NetBeans you download, you may need to do further | |
943 work to get the required External Editor module. This is the module which lets | |
944 NetBeans work with gvim (or xemacs :-). See http://externaleditor.netbeans.org | |
945 for details on downloading this module if your NetBeans release does not have | |
946 it. | |
947 | |
948 For C, C++, and Fortran support you will also need the cpp module. See | |
949 http://cpp.netbeans.org for information regarding this module. | |
950 | |
951 You can also download Sun ONE Studio from Sun Microsystems, Inc for a 30 day | |
952 free trial. See http://www.sun.com for further details. | |
953 | |
954 | |
955 10.2. NetBeans Key Bindings *netbeans-keybindings* | |
956 | |
957 Vim understands a number of key bindings that execute NetBeans commands. | |
958 These are typically all the Function key combinations. To execute a NetBeans | |
959 command, the user must press the Pause key followed by a NetBeans key binding. | |
960 For example, in order to compile a Java file, the NetBeans key binding is | |
961 "F9". So, while in vim, press "Pause F9" to compile a java file. To toggle a | |
962 breakpoint at the current line, press "Pause Shift F8". | |
963 | |
964 The Pause key is Function key 21. If you don't have a working Pause key and | |
965 want to use F8 instead, use: > | |
966 | |
967 :map <F8> <F21> | |
968 | |
969 The External Editor module dynamically reads the NetBeans key bindings so vim | |
970 should always have the latest key bindings, even when NetBeans changes them. | |
971 | |
972 | |
973 10.3. Preparing NetBeans for Vim *netbeans-preparation* | |
974 | |
975 In order for NetBeans to work with vim, the NetBeans External Editor module | |
976 must be loaded and enabled. If you have a Sun ONE Studio Enterprise Edition | |
977 then this module should be loaded and enabled. If you have a NetBeans release | |
978 you may need to find another way of obtaining this open source module. | |
979 | |
980 You can check if you have this module by opening the Tools->Options dialog | |
981 and drilling down to the "Modules" list (IDE Configuration->System->Modules). | |
982 If your Modules list has an entry for "External Editor" you must make sure | |
983 it is enabled (the "Enabled" property should have the value "True"). If your | |
984 Modules list has no External Editor see the next section on |obtaining-exted|. | |
985 | |
986 | |
987 10.4. Obtaining the External Editor Module *obtaining-exted* | |
988 | |
989 There are 2 ways of obtaining the External Editor module. The easiest way | |
990 is to use the NetBeans Update Center to download and install the module. | |
991 Unfortunately, some versions do not have this module in their update | |
992 center. If you cannot download via the update center you will need to | |
993 download sources and build the module. I will try and get the module | |
994 available from the NetBeans Update Center so building will be unnecessary. | |
995 Also check http://externaleditor.netbeans.org for other availability options. | |
996 | |
997 To download the External Editor sources via CVS and build your own module, | |
998 see http://externaleditor.netbeans.org and http://www.netbeans.org. | |
999 Unfortunately, this is not a trivial procedure. | |
1000 | |
1001 | |
1002 10.5. Setting up NetBeans to run with Vim *netbeans-setup* | |
1003 | |
1004 Assuming you have loaded and enabled the NetBeans External Editor module | |
1005 as described in |netbeans-preparation| all you need to do is verify that | |
1006 the gvim command line is properly configured for your environment. | |
1007 | |
1008 Open the Tools->Options dialog and open the Editing category. Select the | |
1009 External Editor. The right hand pane should contain a Properties tab and | |
1010 an Expert tab. In the Properties tab make sure the "Editor Type" is set | |
1011 to "Vim". In the Expert tab make sure the "Vim Command" is correct. | |
1012 | |
1013 You should be careful if you change the "Vim Command". There are command | |
1014 line options there which must be there for the connection to be properly | |
1015 set up. You can change the command name but that's about it. If your gvim | |
11473 | 1016 can be found by your $PATH then the Vim Command can start with "gvim". If |
1620 | 1017 you don't want gvim searched from your $PATH then hard code in the full |
1018 Unix path name. At this point you should get a gvim for any source file | |
1019 you open in NetBeans. | |
1020 | |
1021 If some files come up in gvim and others (with different file suffixes) come | |
1022 up in the default NetBeans editor you should verify the MIME type in the | |
1023 Expert tab MIME Type property. NetBeans is MIME oriented and the External | |
1024 Editor will only open MIME types specified in this property. | |
1025 | |
