ECB can parse and display-contents of two different file categories: 1. Semantic supported files: For these files a semantic-parser exists. If semantic and the maje-mode-hooks of the related major-modes are setup correctly ECB does what you expect it to do - parsing and displaying the file-contents. This type of files is the best supported type. See the subnode "Setting up Emacs" of the ECB-info-manual (activate it with C-c . o). BTW: C++ and Java are semantic supported! 2. Non-semantic- but imenu- or etags-supported files: In general ECB can parse all files which can be parsed by speedbar. Do not know if IDL-files are supported either by imenu or etags but i know that IDL is not supported by semantic. What are your problems? Are only files of one language not displayed correctly or arbitrary files regardless of their language? If a C++- or Java-file is not parsed correctly you can send me this file via email and i will test it. BTW: Their is a mailing-list for ECB: ecb-list@lists.sourceforge.net Please send all bug-reports and questions about ECB to this list. The best way is to use the command `ecb-submit-problem-report'.
