I see.

There's a version[1] of emacs you can select and install by running "http://cygwin.com/setup.exe";. I propose we reserve the name "Cygwin emacs" for that one :-).

In the meantime, I've reverted to using Windows/NT/XP emacs[2], because jde-open-class-at-point (C-c C-v C-y) doesn't work (for me) from Cygwin emacs. That brings us (me, anyway) full-circle to Leo's original posting[3], but remains consistent with the JDE User's Guide[4].

FWIW, I started using JDEE with Cygwin emacs again after Henry
Thompson reported doing so successfully a while back[1]. The only
functionality I've missed so far is with jde-find[2]. This compares
much favorably with a year ago or so, when (as I recall) C-c C-v C-c
didn't work.


More clarification :-) -- I use Cygwin XEmacs (www.xemacs.org), not
Cygwin Emacs (www.gnu.org).

In the past I've used the cygwin installer provided by the XEmacs
people [1], which gives you a choice at install time of using Cygwin X
or native Windows, but that has stuck at 21.4.13 for some time, so
more recently I've compiled the sources myself under cygwin using gcc,
using the native windows settings.  As I've said before on this
thread, I'm not clear why Ed and others are having trouble with file
paths, as (admittedly after some trial and error) I believe I have it
all working fine.

I'm attaching my complete jde-related initialisation information, in
the hopes this may help others.
