Title: CodeBlocks Editor Syntax highlighting does not understand .C extenstion
Post by: ramesh on September 11, 2005, 04:03:33 pm
I tried opening a .C file and it didnot show up highlighted in the editor. Changed the extension to .c
and the colors showed up.  Is there any configuration I need to enable so that .C extension is
recognized by the editor?

No, according to this recent thread (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,873.0.html) that's an actual bug, but it's already been fixed in the latest CVS version (though it may not be available from anonymous CVS just yet, it lags behind a couple of hours and the confirmation of the fix was about 45 minutes before this post).
If you don't want to compile from CVS yourself, it'll likely be in the next release (RC2, which has been mentioned to be soon) or Ceniza's next CVS binary snapshot (http://gda.utp.edu.co/~ceniza/CodeBlocks/).

No, I just replied in that thread. The actual fix is in CVS since a couple of days :)

But the post was said confirmation, at least to me. I didn't feel like digging through commit logs to find out when exactly it was commited ;). Of course, I could have checked if it Worked For MeTM, but I didn't think of that at the time.

No problem Urxae. I was just clarifying :)
