(212/212) 540 - System Information Macro - useful for reporting bugs

I think, this macro could be a good additon to default jEdit.

The "SystemInformation Macro will display:
jEdit Version
Java Version
OS Name & Version
Every Plugin Name & Version

Information can be copied to the clipboard.

StringBuilder result= new StringBuilder(1024);
result.append("jEdit: ");
result.append(jEdit.getBuild());
result.append("\n");
result.append("Java: ");
result.append(System.getProperty("java.vendor"));
result.append(" ");
result.append(System.getProperty("java.version"));
result.append("\n");
result.append("OS: ");
result.append(System.getProperty("os.name"));
result.append(" ");
result.append(System.getProperty("os.version"));
result.append(" ("+System.getProperty("os.arch"));
result.append(")\n");

EditPlugin[] pis= jEdit.getPlugins();
for (i=0; i<pis.length; ++i) {
String clazz= pis[i].getClassName();
result.append("\n");
result.append(jEdit.getProperty("plugin."+clazz+".name"));
result.append(": ");
result.append(jEdit.getProperty("plugin."+clazz+".version"));
}
int answer= Macros.confirm(view, "jEdit Version Information\n\n" + result.toString()+"\n\nCopy to clipboard?", JOptionPane.YES_NO_OPTION);
if (answer == JOptionPane.YES_OPTION) {
Registers.setRegister('$', result.toString());
}

But could you please put the info inside a scrollable selectale area (textArea?), make shorter and wider popup and visually separate buttons, one close/ok button at the center and another one to copy, on its own line above or aligned to the right or both. I also believe that this should be put under Utilities -> Troubleshooting menu.

2017-11-03 13:32:01.298000 ngc	Okay... Using jEdit's help as a guideline I came up with this: // import statement import javax.swing.border.; StringBuilder result= new StringBuilder(1024); result.append("jEdit: "); result.append(jEdit.getBuild()); result.append("\n"); result.append("Java: "); result.append(System.getProperty("java.vendor")); result.append(" "); result.append(System.getProperty("java.version")); result.append("\n"); result.append("OS: "); result.append(System.getProperty("os.name")); result.append(" "); result.append(System.getProperty("os.version")); result.append(" ("+System.getProperty("os.arch")); result.append(")\n"); EditPlugin[] pis= jEdit.getPlugins(); for (i=0; i<pis.length; ++i) { String clazz= pis[i].getClassName(); result.append("\n"); result.append(jEdit.getProperty("plugin."+clazz+".name")); result.append(": "); result.append(jEdit.getProperty("plugin."+clazz+".version")); } // create dialog object String title = "About jEdit"; JDialog dialog = new JDialog(view, title, false); JPanel content = new JPanel(new BorderLayout()); content.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(12, 12, 12, 12)); dialog.setContentPane(content); // Format the result JLabel html= new JLabel( "<html><head><style type=\"text/css\">th { text-align: left; }</style><body><table>" + result.toString().replaceAll("(?m)^(.?): (.*)$","<tr><th>$1</th><td>$2</td></tr>") + "</table></body></html>" ); JScrollPane scroller = new JScrollPane(html, JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED, JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED); content.add(scroller, "Center"); // add the buttons buttonPanel = new JPanel(); buttonPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(buttonPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS)); buttonPanel.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(12, 50, 0, 50)); buttonPanel.add(Box.createGlue()); JButton ok = new JButton("OK"); JButton copy = new JButton("Copy"); ok.setPreferredSize(copy.getPreferredSize()); dialog.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(ok); buttonPanel.add(ok); buttonPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(6)); buttonPanel.add(copy); buttonPanel.add(Box.createGlue()); content.add(buttonPanel, "South"); // register this method as an ActionListener for // the buttons and text fields ok.addActionListener(this); copy.addActionListener(this); // locate the dialog in the center of the // editing pane and make it visible dialog.pack(); dialog.setLocationRelativeTo(view); dialog.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE); dialog.setVisible(true); // this method will be called when a button is clicked // or when ENTER is pressed void actionPerformed(e) { if(e.getSource() == copy) { Registers.setRegister('$', result.toString()); } dialog.dispose(); } Hope you like it.
