Here is a list of user visible changes for CC Mode 5.20. See also the list of user visible changes for version 5.19.

  • Multiline macros are now handled, both as they affect indentation, and as recognized syntax.

    New syntactic symbol cpp-macro-cont is assigned to second and subsequent lines of a multiline macro definition.

  • A new style "user" which captures all non-hook-ified (i.e. top-level) .emacs file variable settings and customizations. Style "cc-mode" is an alias for "user" and is deprecated. "gnu" style is still the default however.

  • "java" style now conforms to Sun's JDK coding style.

  • New commands c-beginning-of-defun, c-end-of-defun which are not bound by default to C-M-a and C-M-e.

  • New and implementations of M-a (c-beginning-of-statement) and M-e (c-end-of-statement).

  • C++ namespace blocks are supported, with new syntactic symbols namespace-open, namespace-close, and innamespace.

  • File local variable settings of c-file-style and c-file-offsets makes the style variables local to that buffer only.

  • New indentation functions c-lineup-close-paren, c-indent-one-line-block, c-lineup-dont-change.

  • Various Imenu patches (thanks to Masatake Yamato, Jan Dubois, and Peter Pilgrim).

  • Performance improvements. Some improvements affect only Emacs or only XEmacs (see the variable c-enable-xemacs-performance-kludge-p).

  • Improvements (hopefully!) to the way CC Mode is loaded.

    You should now be able to do a (require 'cc-mode) to get the entire package loaded properly for customization in your .emacs file. A new variable c-initialize-on-load controls this and is set to t by default.
