Title: Using scintilla lexer files
Post by: Gowen on June 14, 2006, 06:04:16 pm

Hello:
      At http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Languages_supported_by_Code::Blocks_lexers  is a list of languages that C::B can manage, directly or using Scintilla. I want to use a Scintilla only language, can i use the *.properties file from the Scintilla directly or must be converted to xml format? I've already try to copy it to /share/CodeBlocks/lexers; /share/CodeBlocks; /share ; and /; of C::B main folder but didn't work.

Thanks

Download the C::B sources from SVN (http://www.codeblocks.org/source_code.shtml), and read README.txt in trunk/src/sdk/resources/lexers. Also see Creating a custom lexer for Code::Blocks editor (http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Creating_a_custom_lexer_for_Code::Blocks_editor) in the Wiki.
