jEdit Community - Resources for users of the jEdit Text Editor
linecomment //
Submitted by OBI_Ron on Wednesday, 23 August, 2006 - 20:05
Hello everyone,

I have just started using jEdit, and would like to create a new edit mode to handle Poser cr2 files. I have read thru the help docs, and am using the python.xml as a reference.

In python.xml, the following line handles comments:
PROPERTY NAME="lineComment" VALUE="#" /

So each line that begins with # is recognized as a comment line.

In a cr2 file, comment lines begin with //, and have no end of comment designation. So I tried to use the same cocept:
PROPERTY NAME="lineComment" VALUE="//" /

But I am not getting the results that I would expect. Comment lines are not recognized at all.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks for your time!

LineComment Broke?

I think the line Comment property might be broken.

This does not work...
<*PROPS>
    <*PROPERTY NAME="lineComment" VALUE="`" />
<*/PROPS>

This does...
<*RULES>
    <*EOL_SPAN TYPE="COMMENT2">`<*/EOL_SPAN>
<*RULES>

Hi, Try to add this line under RULES, it should work

*<*EOL_SPAN TYPE="COMMENT2">//*<*/*EOL_SPAN*>

Enjoy

Remove the stars before putting this to your edit mode....Eye-wink
