#129 Syntax Coloring wrong after Perl formats
Hi,
a few minutes ago I tried to upgrade my EPIC from 0.3.8
to 0.3.10, but after having updated it, one of my
report scripts that uses Perl formats did not get
colored the right way any longer.
In fact, all code following the first line
"format stdout_top ="
is marked blue as it would be a text/string.
After falling back to EPIC 0.3.8 Perl formats work ok
again.
So long,
Thomas

A quick test and I cannot reproduce the problem. Please
attach the file (before formating). Colour description are
useless, cause they are associated with specific Types.
Better way would be to say all are marked as Literal1,
Literal2, Keyword1, etc. (see Preferences).
As a workaround, what should defenitely work is the
Window-strategy: Close and reopen, then it should be
displayed correctly.

Ok... I can reproduce it... also after replacing version
0.3.8 by 0.3.10 again and restarting eclipse several times
(I did not try to shutdown my WinXP completely and reboot...).
Now it's "blue" or maybe "violett" (sorry but that's the
best I can say, no idea about color types) starting at L68C3
up to L116 last character.
Please find the file attached.
Thx,
Thomas

After playing around with the preferences.... I finally
found it...
This section I mentioned before (L68C3 to L116end) is marked
as literal2.

In the 0.3.10 '@<<<<<<<<' is treated as HERE-documentation.
HERE-documents start with '<<' and the following chars are
treated as 'Label-sign'.
IFFFF you look closer, then you'll see the coloring is wrong
BEFORE the Format source => has nothing to do with 'Format
source'.
Magically the format ends also, frankly said: 'don't know
why' ;)
Could you send me an email how to specify correctly
distinction between HERE and @<<<<<<<<?

I think one could distinguish the different types from
another this way:
if you have a line starting with "format" than the following
text has to be handled specially up to a "." at the
beginning of one of the following lines.
Perhaps there's a possiblity to color these special "format"
characters (I think these are @, <, >, |, #, 0, maybe some
more) in one way, variables as usual and all other should be
colored as literal1 (because all other characters are
printed as typed).
For details about the different character- or text types in
a "format" section please refer to "perlform" POD.

BUTTT if it's like a simple start-end without special
options, you could easily try it in the perl.xml. It must be
same as a regular quote-spaning. Search for >"< in the xml
and try to make the same.
That's the only way I see, it would work easily (without
further testing). Would be of interest, what your results
with 0.3.10 and modified perl.xml are.

I've tried little bit around and you could fix it in the
perl.xml. Nevertheless it appears to be another problem,
cause 'format' should be surrounded by *whitespaces*,
otherwise it makes no sense for colouring. => Some work has
to be done.

Sources for fixing this problems are already in CVS (incl.
perl.xml).
=> in next release fixed (if you like to have it earlier,
download the sources, compile your own editor.jar and it works)
