A new version of Grep Console is out. Compared to the previous version, there are a few new features and bug fixes.
Features:
- “Unless” expressions – An optional second regular expression can be configure for each item to prevent the item from being considered a match for certain strings even if the main expression matches. Thanks to Christian Afonso for suggesting this feature.
- Case sensitivity – Case sensitivity of grep expressions can now easily be toggled via a checkbox. Thanks to “Tom” for suggesting this feature.
- Jump to line – The Grep View context menu now provides an action for jumping to the selected line in the original console.
- Support for more run configurations – The Grep Console tab is now available for JUnit, Eclipse RCP and CDT launch configurations.
Bug fixes:
Fixed null pointer issues in Eclipse 4.2 on Windows 7. Thanks to Mark Harkin and Didier Loiseau for reporting this bug.
- Fixed item tree column sizing in Eclipse 4.2.
- Item tree now uses the correct system text colours for selected and deselected lines. Thanks to “Bill” for reporting this bug.
- Fixed a resource leak that would create too many style preview images, causing the system to run out of handles.
- Fixed handling of non-standard line delimiters. Previously, lines that ended with non-standard delimiter characters would not be parsed correctly.
For installation instructions, please see here. As always, feedback is welcome.
