;;; Commentary:

;;   This package implements JMT Mode, a major mode that affords better control
;;   of Emacs’s Java mode, particularly in regard to syntax highlighting.
;;   For more information, see `http://reluk.ca/project/Java/Emacs/`.
;;
;; Installation
;;
;;   If you installed this package from MELPA using a package manager, then already JMT Mode
;;   should activate for any loaded file that has either a `.java` extension or `java` shebang.
;;   Alternatively, you may want to install it manually:
;;
;;       1. Put a copy of the file `jmt-mode.el` on your load path.
;;          https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Library-Search.html
;;
;;       2. Optionally compile that copy.  Load it into an Emacs buffer, for example,
;;          and type `M-x emacs-lisp-byte-compile`.
;;
;;       3. Add the following code to your Emacs initialization file.
;;
;;             (autoload 'jmt-mode "jmt-mode" nil t)
;;             (set 'auto-mode-alist (cons (cons "\\.java\\'" 'jmt-mode) auto-mode-alist))
;;             (set 'interpreter-mode-alist; For Java source-launch files encoded with a shebang. [SLS]
;;                  (cons (cons "\\(?:--split-string=\\|-S\\)?java" 'jmt-mode)
;;                        interpreter-mode-alist))
;;             (register-definition-prefixes "jmt-mode" '("jmt-"))
;;
;;   For a working example, see the relevant lines of `http://reluk.ca/.config/emacs/initialization.el`.
;;
;; Customization
;;
;;   To see a list of customizeable faces, enter a JMT Mode buffer, or otherwise load JMT Mode,
;;   and type `M-x customize-group <RET> jmt <RET>`.  Alternatively, look through the `defface`
;;   definitions of file `jmt-mode.el`.
;;
;;   For a working example, see:
;;
;;       • The author’s initialization file — http://reluk.ca/.config/emacs/initialization.el
;;       • The author’s `~/.Xresources` — http://reluk.ca/.Xresources
;;
;; Changes made to Emacs
;;
;;   This package applies monkey patches to the runtime session that redefine parts of built-in packages
;;   CC Mode and Font Lock.  The patches are applied on first entrance to JMT Mode.  Most of them apply
;;   to function definitions, in which case they are designed to leave the behaviour of Emacs unchanged
;;   in all buffers except those running JMT Mode.  The patched functions are:
;;
;;       c-before-change
;;       c-fontify-recorded-types-and-refs
;;       c-font-lock-<>-arglists
;;       c-font-lock-declarations
;;       c-font-lock-doc-comments
;;       font-lock-fontify-region-function
;;
;;   Moreover, one variable is patched:
;;
;;       javadoc-font-lock-doc-comments - To allow for upper case letters in Javadoc block tags.

;;; Code:


;; The `Package-Requires` version of Emacs (above) was obtained from `package-lint-current-buffer`.
(eval-when-compile (require 'cl-lib)); Built into Emacs since version 24.3.
(require 'cc-mode); Among other programming modes, it defines Java Mode.

;;   AW · Applying a wrapper using a source-based patch (`jmt--patch`).  A patch so marked either
;;        replaces a call to an original function with a call to a wrapper function, or it could be
;;        implemented this way making the alternatives below applicable all the same.
;;            (1) One alternative would be advice on a containing function that temporarily advises the
;;        original function for the duration of the call in order to wrap the call.  But temporary advice
;;        would be both non-trivial to code and likely to result in slower execution.
;;            (2) Another alternative would be advice on a containing function that temporarily redefines
;;        the original function symbol to that of the wrapper.  This is infeasible, however, because the
;;        wrapper call itself entails a call to the original function. [PGV]
;;            In the case of patches that replace macro calls `c-put-font-lock-face` with function calls,
;;        the symbol to redefine (after macro expansion) would be that of `put-text-property`, a function
;;        the replacement wrapper itself would have to call (invalid self-reference).  The alternative of
;;        redefining the macro symbol seems infeasible, too, considering it would have to be done prior

;;            The corrective fontifier implemented here becomes unstable when annotations are attached

;;
;;        For a source-launch file that has no `.java` extension, if its shebang uses `-S` instead of
