Version History

Here are a list of user visible changes with version 5.15. See also the list of user visible changes for version 5.14.

• A new syntactic symbol: template-args-cont, used in C++ template declarations where the argument list spans multiple lines.

• In "java" style, c-hanging-comment-starter-p defaults to nil to preserve Javadoc starter lines.

• Line oriented comments (i.e. C++ style comments) are now recognized by default in all modes, including C mode (as per the ANSI 9X C draft standard). Thus the function c-enable-//-in-c-mode has been removed.

• Auto-filling of comments has been improved.

  CC Mode will now properly auto-fill both line and block oriented comments, and allows you to choose the leader string on block oriented continued comments, via the variable c-comment-continuation-stars. See the CC Mode manual for details.

• c-electric-slash is electric in all modes.

• The need for c-mode-19.el is automatically detected now.

  You do not need to load or require it in your .emacs file.
