Automatic Variable Declaration

[carlson-3]

How about coloring or highlighting a variable at the point it is newly
created?

Is this a stupid question?  I thought it would help to avoid
inadvertantly creating a new variable when you meant to use an
existing one.

The is a mailing list about the Boo language, you have to be more specific if you want to talk about IDEs

Which IDE?

Apologies for my ignorance.

How does a general purpose IDE know how to color language 'X'?

Does it use the language parser or some other language helper?

Depending on the IDE

There are too many ways to enumerate

well, when I was working on Boo IDE Editor (in c#), I used regular expressions to search for functions, methods, properties, etc. and RichTextBox has a nice feature to color it :)

Processor Devil,

When you worked on the Boo IDE Editor, did you add code that is
intentionally hackable?

carlson,

This discussion is quite odd.  What're you getting at?

Nathan,

Processor Devil says this about him(her)self in his profile:
"I am skilled in the art of battle programming and now I work on
HackFramework."

A little googling turns up this:
http://groups.google.com/group/battle-programming/web/buffer-overflow-definition
where Processor Dev1l says:
"well, it is nice you can make app fall, but we want to control the
computer on which such application is running..."

So, I naturally wondered if he applied his unique skills to the Boo
IDE Editor that he worked on.

well, the Boo IDE Editor was for my own use so "no". And to be clear about "making application fall", etc, I speak about unmanaged code (or you can say "native code").

What kind of question is that?
If you don't trust someone to produce software without backdoors; why
would you trust his response to your e-mail?

A good read on this topic is "Reflections on trusting trust" (by Ken
Thompson):

@ Daniel,

Good point.  But, I did learn something.


@ Processor Dev1l,

"Boo IDE Editor" sounds very official to someone inexperienced.

well, I couldn't figure out any nice name for boo ide editor, so I called it simply "Boo IDE Editor", that is all :))

I was assuming that I would be using the "Boo IDE Editor" somewhere
along the way.  Given your interests, I was reluctant to use it.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

In retrospect, I should have just asked, "Will I be using the 'Boo IDE
Editor'?"

The answer would have been, "No."  And, that would have been the end
of it.

Apologies to all who were disturbed by this thread.

Btw, I have found the code, here is a snippet :)

I don't like the way how I call the method there, I actually wanted to rework that method and add some code snippets to paste, never completed it :)

        private void highlight(string[] data, Color color)

        {

            foreach (string hilight in data)

            {

                Regex r = new Regex(hilight);

                foreach (Match m in r.Matches(this.richTextBox1.Text))

                {

                    this.richTextBox1.Select(m.Index, m.Length);

                    this.richTextBox1.SelectionColor = color;

                    this.richTextBox1.DeselectAll();

                }

            }

        }

        private void richTextBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

            this.toolStripStatusLabel3.Text = this.richTextBox1.Lines.Length.ToString();

            this.toolStripStatusLabel5.Text = this.richTextBox1.TextLength.ToString();

            string[] hilite_Strings = { "\\\".+\\\"", @"\'.+\'", };

            string[] hilite_Functions = {@"\brange\b", @"\bgets\b", @"\bprompt\b"};

            string[] hilite_Macros = {@"\bprint\b", @"\bimport\b", @"\bas\b", @"\bin\b"};

            string[] hilite_CycCon = {@"\bif\b", @"\belif\b", @"\belse\b", @"\bfor\b", @"\bwhile\b" }; //cycles, conditions

            string[] hilite_FceClass = {@"\bdef\b", @"\bclass\b", @"\bconstructor\b", @"\bdestructor\b" }; //function and class declaration

            string[] hilite_TFD = { @"true", @"false", @"\d"}; //true, false, decimals

            string[] hilite_Operators = { @"\+", @"\-", @"\*", @"\/", @"\=", @"\,", @"\.", @"\\", @"\:"};

            string[] hilite_comments = { @"\#.+\n" };

            

            int here = this.richTextBox1.SelectionStart;

            this.richTextBox1.SelectAll();

            this.richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Black;

            //HIGHLIGHTING HERE

            this.highlight(hilite_Strings, Color.MediumVioletRed);

            this.highlight(hilite_Functions, Color.Red);

            this.highlight(hilite_Macros, Color.Brown);

            this.highlight(hilite_CycCon, Color.Orange);

            this.highlight(hilite_FceClass, Color.Blue);

            this.highlight(hilite_DataTypes, Color.Green);

            this.highlight(hilite_TFD, Color.Teal);

            this.highlight(hilite_Operators, Color.Purple);

            this.highlight(hilite_comments, Color.Gray);

            this.richTextBox1.SelectionStart = here;

            this.richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Black;
