ECB now smoothly supports partial reparsing which preserves collapse/expand-state of methods-window (was: ECB 2.40 released!)

Hi,

Now i have up and running an ECB which smoothly supports the partial reparse feature of semantic and therefore only updates these tree-nodes of the methods-window which are related to the reparsed tags. This preserves most of the time the expand/collapse state of the methods-window during editing...

See the file NEWS for some details ....

I have checked in the sources and also updated the CVS-snapshot downloadable from the ECB-website

Please test it and tell me if you encounter problems with the idle-update of the methods-window...

In such a problem-case please do the following:

1. M-: (setq ecb-partial-reparse-debug t) RET 
   This enables debugging output of the new partial reparse/update
   support of ECB
2. Reproduce the problem - now debugging infos are written to the 
   Messages-buffer
3. M-x ecb-submit-problem-report
4. send this problem report to this list

If the problems prevent you from working with ECB then you can add the following into your .emacs-file:
(setq ecb-partial-reparse-always-full-fetch t)
This reactivates the old behavior of ECB 2.40 which is proven to work

Ciao,
Klaus

I have to admit, I haven't figured out how to "Activate the semantic-python-parser".  I see that there's a wisent parser for python, and I've tried a few things, but nothing seems to do the trick.

I noted the following in the Messages buffer, FWIW (this comes during loading of my Python file):

I tried that (tried putting it before and after the CEDET and ECB stuff), with no difference.

BTW, I'm working with PHP and Javascript files as well; will I have to do something special for them?

Eric, thanks for chiming in.  I'll try your "script" and reply.
