Language Rules Conflict Jide Editor

Postby Salman12 » Thu Mar 05, 2015 5:47 am

Asslam 0 Alaikum,

I am using Jide Editor in my project for VB Script support. I am facing a issue in the implementation of Language rules. In VB we can identify a single line comment if the line starting with Apostrophe( ' ) . I have given rule to Jide Editor to take apostrophe as a single line comment but in the editor if I write ODD number of apostrophe then it changes the syntax color of line as a comment but a the number of apostrophes become EVEN then it starts considering it as a string literal. e.g

' This is comment (Taken as Comment identified from syntax color)
' ' ' This is comment (Taken as Comment identified from syntax color)
' ' This is comment (Taken as String identified from syntax color)
' ' ' ' This is comment (Taken as String identified from syntax color)

I have tried to change string literal token and comment identification rule but nothing is working for me.
If anyone has any idea about this issue or faced during their implementation then kindly tell me about this issue more and how can I resolve this issue.
If no one has ever faced it then I think it should be fixed by Jide Developers as soon as possible since we have some dependency on this issue.

The syntax color part is taken from an open source http://syntax.jedit.org/. All the tokenmarkers are taken from their projects so we actually don't have much expertise in the area. Of course we can't depend on them to provide support, so if you can provide a test case to reproduce the issue, we can certainly learn more about it and see if we can find a fix in their code.
