Fine - use existed demo app handler - you don't need to compile it.

I put it in demo compile-time to make stand-alone demo without any extra files.

void CMDITextEditorView::OnReloadSyntax() {

//read from you syntax_scheme file into CString sScheme - and keep CR-LF between lines.

//same for extra_color_scheme - read into CString sColorTheme - and keep CR-LF between lines.

if (GetEditCtrl().GetEditBuffer())

GetEditCtrl().SetSyntaxAndColorScheme(sScheme, sColorTheme, TRUE, TRUE); }

Thank you mark, that did the trick with the ".h" file.

My ".h" file produced a number of errors and wouldn't highlight properly but it did "sort of" work. I prefer the external file schema since you don't have to recompile every time you change a setting. I guess I'll have to trace until I find where the lag is coming from.

You string - one long text. Need to change e.g. instead of your line sb += _T("lexClass:"); use sb += _T("lexClass:\r\n"); and code will work

The ".h" file method doesn't seem to work either. I have attached _sql_schclass.h if anyone is interested.

The dialog opening speed is very good. Probably because it's not doing anything Maybe I've got something wrong in the header file. If so I'll be darned if I know what it is. I didn't seem to encounter any error messages.

I performed the following tests:

1. I copy/pasted some SQL into the edit box. No syntax highlighting.
2. I typed some SQL directly into the edit box. No syntax highlighting.

Code:

    m_ctrlSynEdit.SetConfigFile(_T(""), FALSE);
    m_ctrlSynEdit.m_bUseMonitor = FALSE;

    CXTPSyntaxEditBufferManager* pDataMan = m_ctrlSynEdit.GetEditBuffer();
    ASSERT(pDataMan);
    if (pDataMan)
    {
        #include "_sql_schclass.h"
        #include "ColorsDataEntry.h"
        m_ctrlSynEdit.SetSyntaxAndColorScheme(sScheme, sColorTheme, FALSE, FALSE);
    }

Guess some thread searching by all file system (may be including network drives)? Try to debug and see. At least it was one of the reason to introduce another mode - much faster and flexi. Not too many users use syntaxedit in different apps same time and like to force syntax and color scheme updates in sync mode.

Do you know what causes the huge lag when using the "file" based method? I'd really like to use it and it works perfectly except for the lag.

It's even more pronounced in Debug vs Release so maybe related to memory allocation/deallocation? I'm just guessing here but hope someone might have the answer.

Thank you!

You can find it in our sample:

CMDITextEditorView::CMDITextEditorView() : m_dwLastUpdate(0), m_dwParserStart(0) {

.....

#include "_cpp1_schclass.h"

#include "ColorsDataEntry.h"

GetEditCtrl().SetConfigFile(_T(""), FALSE);

GetEditCtrl().m_bUseMonitor = FALSE;

if (GetEditCtrl().GetEditBuffer())

GetEditCtrl().GetEditBuffer()->SetFileExt(_T(".cpp"));

GetEditCtrl().SetSyntaxAndColorScheme(sScheme, sColorTheme);

return;

I did the paragraph find/replace with Notepad++ instead of word and it saved all the typing, thank you

Problems remain. This is the first block of file _sql_schclass.h:

CString sScheme, sColorTheme, sb;

/// SQL ///
sb += _T("
lexClass:
    parent:file        = <*.sql>
    name            = c_SQL
    caseSensitive    = 0
    txt:colorFG    = 0x000000
    global:EditReparceTimeout_ms = 15000
    global:OnScreenSchcacheLifeTime_sec = 0
    global:ParserThreadIdleLifeTime_sec = 300
");

and at end of file:

sScheme = sb;
sb.Empty();

But of course produces the following errors on compile (for each block):

Error    1    error C2001: newline in constant

Since every line of text on a new line in the block either needs a '\' or remove all the line feeds.

I did solve this error:

Error    1    error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '+='

The config header file(s) cannot be included as "real header" files at the top of the cpp, but has to be embedded since it's code not class! Doh!

BOOL CQueryEditor::OnInitDialog()
{
    CXTPDialog::OnInitDialog();

    CRect rc;
    GetDlgItem(IDC_PLACEHOLDER)->GetWindowRect( &rc );
    ScreenToClient( &rc );

    BOOL bCreate = m_ctrlSynEdit.Create(this, TRUE, TRUE);
    m_ctrlSynEdit.ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE);
    m_ctrlSynEdit.MoveWindow(&rc); //&rcEdit);

Instead of carpal-tunnel exercise - use open your schclass-file in MS Word and replace all paragraphs ^p to \r\n"); ^p sb += _T("

You can use any code to read your syntax and color scheme files into 2 strings and keep \r\n inside and use this 2 strings in

GetEditCtrl().SetSyntaxAndColorScheme(sScheme, sColorTheme); //my h-files to make compiled version [prebuid CPP case - like default]
