The linter currently does not highlight syntax errors (missing semicolons, invalid assignment, etc.) and actually refuses to show any lints if syntax errors are present in the project.

The regex for javac lint results seem to have changed between Java 6 and Java 7, and currently the linter only works for Java 7.

If we instead of "file" use the capturing group name "filename", SublimeLinter actually recognizes that and could read in errors from multiple files in one go. T.i. 🤞 we could omit the split_match implementation here, maybe.

@davidaurelio Could you test that? You're already know how to hack on SL plugins and could probably easily test.

How do I add a sourcepath?

adding "-sorcepath /path/to/src" to args doesn't seem to work

How can I configure SublimeLinter to put the compiled .class files into a separate folder, e.g. ./bin?

I know... it must be pretty easy, but I don't get it right :/

Here is my current config:

{
"user": {
    "linters": {
        "javac": {
            "@disable": false,
            "args": [
                "-d", "./bin/"
            ],
            "excludes": [],
            "lint": ""
        }
    }
}

This should be a very straightforward issue, but I can't seem to find a solution. I'd appreciate some help a lot!

In my current project I have two Java files: Point.java and LineSegment.java. The LineSegment class uses the Point class; since they are in the same directory LineSegment doesn't have to import Point. Both Point and LineSegment compile without any issues.

However, when I open LineSegment.java in Sublime, all references to Point are highlighted in red and cannot find symbol error is issued.

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

My project settings:

{
  "folders":
  [
    {
      "path": "/home/anton/calc/algorithms/homework/week3"
    }
  ],
  "SublimeLinter":
  {
    "linters":
    {
      "javac": {
        "lint": "all",
        "args": [
          "-encoding", "UTF8",
          "-cp", "/usr/local/algs4/algs4.jar"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Here's the visual trace:

It doesn't look like there is a flag to turn off output generation and only lint, so a temporary directory should be created to place generated files that can be cleaned up after running.

"SublimeLinter":
	{
		"linters":
		{
			"javac":
			{
				"args":
				[
					"-cp",
					"${project}/../data/lib/mysql.jar:${project}/../data/lib/xpp.jar:${project}/../data/lib/xstream.jar:${project}/../data/lib/filestore.jar:${project}/../data/lib/object-explorer.jar",
					"-sourcepath",
					"${project}/../src/",
					"-d",
					"${project}/../bin/"
				],
				"lint": "all"
			}
		}
	}

Removing the
"-d", "${project}/../bin/"
Fixes the linter, re-adding it causes no errors to be shown. Turning on debugging also shows no information in the console, with the sublimelinter output showing "No lint results."

These settings used to work. Shortly after ${project} was re-added or fixed is when the linter stopped working, I just never got around to posting the issue.

Reverting to sublimelinter-javac 1.1.8 and sublimelinter 3.9.0 fixes the issue.

Linter crashes on linting a Java file in which main method block's starting curly brace is absent.
The error shown is

TypeError: unorderable types: int() < str()

(Please see the attached image for details).

Windows 10, Version 1709
Sublime Text 3.0, (build 3143)
SublimeLinter 4.0.1

When writing a package, the linter marks "cannot find symbol" on declarations of other classes in the package. This matches the behaviour of running javac file.java for some file.java in package pkg. Instead, if there's a package declaration, it should be running cd ..; javac pkg/file.java.

Hi,

whenever I import another library it is linted as an error, because it cannot resolve the symbol.

How do I either tell the linter to stop linting these things or how can I get the linter to properly lint these things.

Thank you very much :-)

Running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

$ whereis javac
javac: /usr/bin/javac /usr/bin/X11/javac /usr/share/man/man1/javac.1.gz

$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/games:/usr/games:/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/db/bin:/usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin

$ javac -version
javac 1.7.0_51

sense this does not make

Setup:
Windows 10, Version 1803
Sublime Text 3.1.1, Build 3176
SublimeLinter 4.6.5
SublimeLinter-javac 1.1.11

Steps to reproduce the problem:

1. Create a folder (say ParentFolder).
2. Create a folder inside it (say ChildFolder).
3. Create two Java source code files inside it.
4. Invoke a static method of any class inside any method of the other class.

Problem:
The linter shows an error, saying that the class can't be found.
javac - cannot find symbol

Obviously, both files can compile with no errors in the command line.

Screenshot:

Additional Notes:
If I put them inside a folder and try it, it works as expected.
If I put them inside a folder that is inside another folder, then this problem arises.

Environment

• OS: MacOS Ventura Version 13.3.1 (a) (22E772610a)
• Javac Version: 17.0.7 (openjdk 17.0.7 2023-04-18)
• Sublime Text 4 Build 4143

Where javac returns /usr/bin/javac

Where java returns /usr/bin/java

in my .zhrc i set export JAVA_HOME=/opt/homebrew/Cellar/openjdk@17/17.0.7

    "paths": {
        "osx": [
            "/usr/bin"
        ]
    }
}

Console Output:

INFO:SublimeLinter.plugin.javac:Running ...
  /Users/myusername/Downloads  (working dir)
  $ /usr/bin/javac -Xlint -encoding UTF8 /Users/myusername/Downloads/t.java
SublimeLinter: #81 linter.py:1233     javac: output:
  The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to locate a Java Runtime.

running /usr/bin/javac -Xlint -encoding UTF8 /Users/myusername/Downloads/t.java alone in terminal works, but not via SublimeLinter-javac

Am I doing something wrong?

I'm quite new to Java, so I apologize in advance if the problem is in my setup rather then the linter.

I use the Gradle build tool to run JUnit tests. The test dependecies are specified in my build.gradle file. The test file shows a bunch of "Package does not exist" errors because it doesn't know where to get the dependencies from. The tests, however, have no problem running with gradle build.

Here's a screenshot:

To reproduce, please pull the code from https://github.com/exercism/xjava/tree/master/etl and take a look at etl/src/test/java/EtlTest.java.

Thanks!

I'm not really sure what's going on, I've been using this package for ages without any issues and haven't changed anything, but today I noticed that errors are no longer being displayed. After trying debug mode, I'm seeing the error "javac: directory not found: ${project}/../bin/" (my bin folder is located one directory higher than the sublime-project file). As I mentioned, up until today this has always worked just fine.
