Implementing Auto-Indent
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The key idea is to use the SCN_CHARADDED notification to add indentation after a newline.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The lParam on the notification is a pointer to a SCNotification structure whose ch member
|
|
specifies the character added. If a newline was added, the previous line can be retrieved and
|
|
the same indentation can be added to the new line.
|
|

|
Of course, fancier handling could be implemented. For example, if the previous line was the
|
|
start of a control construct, the next line could be automatically indented one tab further.
|
|
(Assuming that is your indenting style.)

<h2>
|
|
Implementing Syntax Styling
|
|
</h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Syntax styling is handled by the SCN_STYLENEEDED notification. Scintilla keeps track of the
|
|
end of the styled text - this is retrieved with SCI_GETENDSTYLED. In response to the
|
|
SCN_STYLENEEDED notification, you should apply styles to the text from ENDSTYLED to the
|
|
position specified by the notification.

Then if a calltip is available it can be displayed. The calltip appears immediately below
|
|
the position specified. The calltip can be multiple lines separated by newlines (\n).

The calltip can be removed when a closing parenthesis is entered:

Obviously, it is up the application to look after supplying the appropriate calltip text.

|
SciTE goes one step further, counting the commas between arguments and highlighting the

corresponding part of the calltip. This code is in ContinueCallTip.
