Well, I must say that that's an excellent component and I will start looking at it's implementation right away. They pretty muich have created a component that is VERY similiar to the editor and therefore would be perfect for us.

Thanks for the link!

Here is a very interesting project that we might be able to steal some really useful code from :-)

It is called mwEdit and is the source code written in Delphi to have a complete Pascal (and other languages, Java, C++, etc.) language parser and editor. It says the editor is written without using the Windows memo control. It has bookmarks and gutter marks.

It sounds like it might be a custom built editor that we may be able to port over without too much work. This could get us a pretty nice syntax highlighting editor really fast. Check it out!

That is kind of what I thought too. If nothing else, we might be able to pull some code out of it and use it.

I am looking at the parser now. I haven't been able to figure out where the current parser (scan.pp) determines comments. I want to fix that little bug where it misses the highlight color of the first comment character after a non-comment line, but I am having problems figuring out exactly where that is happening. I think it is happening in the scan.pp unit, but am not quite sure. I guess I need to figure out how to use the debugger (gdb) :-)

I think I finally have things under control at work, so now I can start cranking hard on this again. I have worked over 100 hours this week at work, so I haven't had time to get much done on the IDE :-( But I think that is finally over!!!

Hello,

I have exactly the same problem. I have the recent fpc from cvs and the recent Lazarus source code (today).
When I disable these lines and try to compile, I get other errors in lines with "@".

for example:

main.pp
OnDestroy := @FormKill;          (line 147)
compileroptions.pp
OnShow := @FormOnShow;     (line 63)

Could someone help me?

Anyone else having problems compiling Lazarus from the latest from cvs. Problem seems to be in call to gtk_signal_func.
