Windows版本emacs 24.3上的ecb安装错误

Question

I have emacs 24.3 installed on windows, and tried to install ecb version 20130406.1406 through the package manager, however, during the compiling process, i had the following error message:

jn-file-tree.el:31:1:Error: Cannot open load file: jn-tree-node

did any one encounter this before?

anyway, despite the above errors, it was installed, and i was able to activate ecb by run Mx ecb-activate, however i got an error message as follow:

The ECB is now deactivated. ecb-clean-up-after-activation-failure: ECB 2.40: Errors during the layout setup of ECB. (error-type: void-variable, error-data: (ecb-examples-bufferinfo-buffer-name))

thanks alot!

Answer 1

I met the similar issue, use this to fix the activate failure:

(setq ecb-examples-bufferinfo-buffer-name nil)

According to: Emacs 24.3.1 CEDET 2.0 (built in) and ECB 20131116.1319: Errors during the layout setup of ECB
