0.25.0 released on April 25, 2014
Counterclockwise now uses Clojure 1.6.0 internally instead of 1.6.0-alpha3 before.
The launch startup time of leiningen projects has been slightly improved by using more appropriate JVM flags (inspired by the ones used by the leiningen shell script).
There was kind of an incompatibility between CCW and Leiningen. In short, CCW uses the :injections project key to inject nrepl server code, and this code is also injected by leiningen when AOT compiling in subprocesses. The server code was creating futures, thus preventing the AOT compilation process to shutdown in due time.
The problem of UI freeze has also been globally addressed by improving the launcher code.
With the new Leiningen Launcher, the Console View was systematically stealing focus from the REPL View, because it was (deterministically) outputting the REPL server port after the REPL View was started and focused on.
This improper behavior was a consequence of the use of an acknowledgement socket between the nrepl server and the nrepl client. Leiningen gets the nrepl port after the acknowledgement has been done by the nrepl server library. So it cannot be changed to output the nrepl port before nrepl sends it back via the acknowledgement socket.
The solution which has been retained is to stop using acknowledgement sockets for getting the repl port back.
From now on, CCW relies on Leiningen outputting the nrepl port on its stdout (using the nRepl URL format).
To remain compatible with this behavior (and simplify the code internally), the regular Clojure launcher has been enhanced to also output the nrepl URL to stdout.
The console stack trace hyperlinks where wrong if the namespace was separate in several files loaded from the main namespace file. Fix Issue 634 - Clicking links in stacktraces bring you to the file of the namespace, not the file with the code causing the crash
Counterclockwise Automatic detection of Clojure projects and Maven m2e Update Maven projects on startup preferences do not play well when both set to true. Counterclockwise code has been carefully audited and updated to prevent IResource locks, but the problem remains anyway. It is strongly suggested to not use m2e Update Maven projects on startup. Fixes Issue #633
0.24.2 released on April 11, 2014
When CCW launches a REPL for a Leiningen project, it uses lein repl :headless. This leiningen task will, by default, try to load the namespace declared via the `[:main]`path in project.clj map (if no other namespace has been explicitly defined by the user via the `[:repl-options :init-ns] path). This magical side-effect is undesirable as default behavior, and can cause the namespace code to be loaded twice if the REPL is invoked via its source code editor. This can be problematic for certain codebases.
CCW fixes this by dissocing the :main key in the project.clj map used to start the nrepl :headless server.
Since version 0.24.0, commands indirectly loading a REPL automatically (e.g. invoking load file in Clojure REPL when there is no active REPL) invoke the launcher in Debug mode (allowing to put breakpoints in the code for instance).
This behavior can be changed globally via a new preference: Clojure > General > Launch REPLs in Debug mode (thus checked by default)
Preference Clojure > General > Launch Leiningen projects with Leiningen (uncheck to launch them via default java launcher) has been added.
By default, Leiningen projects will be launched by invoking leiningen repl :headless. By unchecking this preference, Leiningen projects will be launched as would regular java projects detected as Clojure project (the behavior before 0.24.0).
Motivation: some users have reported real blocking issues which cannot be addressed in this release:
-
Eclipse crashes under some circumstances (will be addressed soon)
-
Leiningen launcher way longer to start than default java launcher, and for projects requiring repeated restarts, this is a no-no. This second point may be addressed by leveraging the
trampolinebehavior of Leiningen.
When both of these issues are addressed, removing this Preference from the GUI may be considered.
0.24.1 released on March 30, 2014
Bug Fix: The System environment was not correctly passed to the launched project process, causing all sorts of trouble (X Window session not found, java.io.tmpdir not set correctly, etc.)
0.24.0 released on March 20, 2014
The command "Headless Leiningen REPL" introduced in a recent release works well, so it has been set as the default behaviour for starting a new REPL for Leiningen projects.
This means that for Leiningen projects, Ctrl+Alt S (resp. Cmd+Alt S for OSX), or 'Run/Debug as Clojure Application' will truly use Leiningen under the hood to start a headless REPL for the project.
Also now by default, keyboard shortcut Ctrl+Alt S starts the project in debug mode and automatically connects Eclipse to the projects JVM debugger.
-
Ensure all JVMs created by Leiningen are killed when the main process is killed via the Console "Terminate" button.
-
"Headless Leiningen REPL" command Alt+L H has been removed now that it is the default behaviour for starting Leiningen projects
-
For Linux/Windows, the zip now contains a root folder named Counterclockwise-<version>
-
For OS X, the zip now contains a root folder named Counterclockwise-<version>.app ; it is thus recognized as an OS X Application folder
0.23.0 released on January 23, 2014
Fixes the compatibility problems with Eclipse Indigo!
-
It is now possible to use the usual Software Update Site to upgrade a Counterclockwise/Standalone install with new versions of Counterclockwise.
-
The version is now displayed in the Counterclockwise About Dialog.
-
The Products zips filenames now contain the version
-
now mentions the Counterclockwise version number (in the text, and the corresponding links)
0.22.0 released on January 10, 2014
The embedded Leiningen has been upgraded from version 2.1.2 to a patched 2.3.4.
The patch applied to Leiningen 2.3.4 relates to the lein repl task: in addition to displaying a human readable info about the nREPL server’s port & host, it appends a nREPL URL.
Before:
nREPL server started on port 61149 on host 127.0.0.1
After:
nREPL server started on port 61149 on host 127.0.0.1 - nrepl://127.0.0.1:61149
This nREPL URL is automatically converted to an hyperlink in the Console View.
And even more: the first time a nREPL link appears in a Console View, Counterclockwise automatically opens a REPL View for it!
Alt+L H is a shortcut for launching a headless leiningen REPL. It is similar to doing Alt+L L + typing your-project $ lein repl :headless.
Alt+L R resets the project classpath, using Leiningen to compute the classpath.
Resolving leiningen classpath is now more permissive
Overlapping :source-paths, :resource-paths, :test-paths and/or :java-source-paths are accepted.
Counterclockwise resolves the conflict by adding the required exclusions to its source classpath entries.
For instance, if you have declared (explicitly or implicitly) both resources and resources/public as resource paths,
Counterclockwise will create 2 source path entries:
-
one for
resources/public, -
and one for
resources, with an exclusion filter for itspublicsubfolder
All paths are marked as 'optional' so that if folders for these paths are missing, no exception is reported by Eclipse.
0.21.0 released on January 9, 2014
Addition of a new command, Alt+L L for launching a popup allowing to enter an arbitry leiningen command.
It allows you to launch arbitrary leiningen tasks from within Eclipse.
See Documentation: http://doc.ccw-ide.org/documentation.html#_generic_command_launcher
The Wizard has been modified to simplify the understanding of its fields. Especially, the "Use default location" field has been replaced with a "Create project folder in:" field, and its meaning has changed from "ask the user for the project’s folder on the filesystem" to "ask the user for the project’s parent folder on the filesystem (assuming that the project folder will be the project name)". This is wayyy more intuitive.
The "Working Sets" section of the Wizard has been removed. Instead, the newly created project is automatically added to the currently active Working Sets.
Timeouts have been added for all Counterclockwise interactions with the nREPL connection of a REPL View.
Nothing should prevent the user to type in an Editor. Counterclockwise should gracefully downgrade its features instead. This is a step in this direction.
-
Code completion: 1 second timeout. If timeout occurs twice for a given REPL, it won’t be used anymore (only static code completion will take place).
-
Text Hover: 1 second timeout.
-
Hyperlink Detection: 1 second timeout.
-
Namespace Browser: 15 seconds timeout.
-
REPL: 15 seconds timeout at some initialization usage of the nrepl client
"Load File" action now works for editors opened via File › Open File… (aka arbitrary file on the filesystem, not necessarily living inside a project inside the Eclipse Workspace)
It is possible to contribute Counterclockwise User Plugins inside folder ~/.ccw.
This will be a way both:
- for users to contribute / experiment more easily to Counterclockwise
- for the Counterclockwise team to provide beta features for rapid user feedback
INFO: a User Plugin is dynamic. To remove it, just remove it.
A whole new section of the documentation has been added concerning User plugins. See http://doc.ccw-ide.org/documentation.html#_user_plugins for the full story.

Warning
|
Works only with Eclipse 4 and CCW/Standalone. |
This plugin adds commands for managing User Plugins (sorry, it’s a little bit meta):
-
Alt+U S - re[S]tart user plugins (will reload all user plugins code)
-
Alt+U N - create a [N]ew user plugin (will prompt you for a plugin name, create the plugin folder/file, a project in the workspace, and open a repl connection to your Eclipse instance)
-
Alt+U I - Import all user plugins present in
~/.ccwas projects in workspace
The plugin is available as a Gist, you can examine its content here https://gist.github.com/laurentpetit/7924786 and then clone its repository https://gist.github.com/7924786.git in ~/.ccw/plugin-additions
git clone https://gist.github.com/7924786.git ~/.ccw/plugin-additions
# Restart your EclipseThe embedded nREPL client in Counterclockwise, and which is also used to serve as nREPL client when the project does not declare a dependency on nREPL (the majority of the cases) has been upgraded from version 0.2.1 to 0.2.3.
-
Explicitly ask the user for confirmation before launching a second process for the same project
The code is there, but not active at the moment (needs more love / hammock)
Changed the URL for downloading the stable standalone versions: http://standalone.ccw-ide.org/
Increased the MaxPermSize value from 128Mb to 256Mb, since there has been reports that 128Mb weren’t enough, e.g. when invoking the New Clojure Project Wizard.

Reindent Selection has been implemented. Trigger it via Ctrl+i on Windows/Linux, Cmd+i on OSX.
While you type, the code on the following lines which depends upon the code on the current line is shifted to the right or to the left. More spaces/less spaces are added/removed automatically.
-
For instance, if you have the following manually indented code (note that the call to the
condmacro is indented 4 extra spaces to the right):(defn foo [bar baz] (cond cond1 expr1 cond2 expr2 :else default-expr))
-
You can fix the whole indentation by either placing the cursor anywhere in the
(condline and typing Tab, or in front of(condand typing Backspace 2 times:(defn foo [bar baz] (cond cond1 expr1 cond2 expr2 :else default-expr))
-
Before the AutoShift feature, you would either have to indent each line manually, or select the whole
(cond..)form and typeCtrl+i(OS X:Cmd+i), but you would have lost the specific indentation of the conditions/expressions:(defn foo [bar baz] (cond cond1 expr1 cond2 expr2 :else default-expr))
Hitting Ctrl+Enter when the cursor is located at the top level selects the preceding top level form to be sent to the REPL. Only when the cursor is right in front of a top level form will it be selected instead of the previous one. (Fix Issue #580)
e.g. if the caret is materialized with the symbol |:
(defn foo [] ...)|
(defn bar [] ....)
;; => foo's declaration will be sent to the REPL
(defn baz [] ...)
|(defn qix [] ...)
;; => qix's declaration will be sent to the REPLSlurp and Barf, 2 important paredit/structural manipulation features, have been added to the Editor. (Fixes Issue #486: Add support for barfage and slurpage)
+ See the Keybindings documentation for Slurp / Barf : https://code.google.com/p/counterclockwise/wiki/EditorKeyBindingsFeatures
-
Fixed wrong keybinding for switching Rainbow Parens: "Cmd+( R" instead of "Cmd+(R" (replace Cmd by Ctrl for Windows/Linux ; space indicates that you first type Cmd(, then type R)
-
Changed "toggle line comments" behaviour: before, if the selection had both commented and uncommented lines, it was an ambiguous case resolved by just doing nothing. Now, it is resolved by counting the number of commented and uncommented lines. If the number of uncommented lines in the selection is equal or greater than the number of commented lines, then those uncommented lines are commented. If the number of commented lines is greater than the number of uncommented lines, those commented lines are uncommented.
Calling "toggle lines comments" on the following code selection:
;(defn foo [....]) (defn bar [....]) (defn baz [....])
will result in:
;(defn foo [....]) ;(defn bar [....]) ;(defn baz [....])
But calling "toggle lines comments" on this code selection:
;(defn foo [....]) (defn bar [....]) ;(defn baz [....])
+ will result in:
(defn foo [....])
(defn bar [....])
(defn baz [....])-
Auto indentation of a cond form changed: (Fixes #592)
;; from (cond test1 expr1 test2 expr2) ;; to (cond test1 expr1 test2 expr2)
-
Experimental Feature: enabling auto-reevaluation of last command typed in the REPL, after a successful evaluation from the Editor
-
when the "repeat last expression" REPL command is active
-
when the user sends a form tom evaluate to the REPL
-
if the form evaluated without error
-
then the last expression evaluated from the REPL input is evaluated again
A common usecase for this is while you’re defining a function in the Editor and you want to repeat the same test expression again and again until it passes. The workflow then becomes:
-
define the function in the editor, eval via Cmd+Enter
-
switch to the REPL, enter a test expression, send the test expression via Cmd+Enter
-
Click on the "Repeat last evaluation …" button in the REPL
-
switch to the editor, modify the function, eval via Cmd+Enter … when the eval succeeds, the last expression entered in the REPl is reevaluated … repeat …
-
-
-
A bug had slipped in the project classpath management preventing native libraries to load properly, for instance when trying to work with Overtone. Fix Issue #577
-
Reverting the behaviour of the "Evaluate selection" when sending to the REPL : back to using 'in-ns instead of 'ns while transitioning to the selection’s namespace Fixes Issue #533: ns is sent to REPL instead of in-ns
-
Launch repl ack timeout set to 60 sec instead of 30
-
Better IPv6 support: replaced "localhost" occurences by "127.0.0.1"
-
"Quiet command report mode" Preference has been removed. Now considered always ON by default. So always quiet.
-
There were reports of restart issues after Eclipse crashes. Hopefully this has been improved in this release (Fix Issue #568 CCW Beta 0.13.0.201304190010 prevents Eclipse from loading)
-
Internally switched to Leiningen 2.1.2
-
Better exception reporting in the Problem Markers, e.g. when a dependency cannot be found, etc.
-
CCW plugin does not start unnecessarily when invoking the project’s contextual menu
