Useful TM1 language highlighter for Notepad ++

[macsir]

I worte it and it supports all languages up to 9.5.2 in TM1 (Process scripts, rules etc.)
You can use latest Notepad++ to import this UDL xml file into it and it would be there in Language menu for you to select and highlight.
In Notepad ++, View -> User Defined Dialogue... -> Import

A little modification. This is the latest one.

Thank you, nice addition !

Certainly the sections on IF-ENDIF;
Too bad a second section for WHILE-END; does not seem possible (I tested a few minutes).

Yeah, I have thought about that but looks like notepad++ only supports one section. Anyway, WHILE-END is not so widely used as IF-ENDIF;

We can setup While as well as IF at the same time. Please see the attached screen shot.

Thanks for useful advice. I have added this into latest version and also update some bugs.

A nice little thing for TI code in Notepad++, is that you can add commentary signs (see the Edit menu).
Since the commentary sign for TI syntaxis is defined as #, this character is added at the beginning of the line.
This saves me from either manually adding the #, either using the lame workaround of:

IF(1=0);
'code
ENDIF;

Oh c'mon it's a brilliant workaround!

Sorry to re-open such old thread with a dumb question

How do you use the notepad++ for TI editing? Are you copy/pasting related TI's tab all the time? Or are you modifying the *.pro file directly and somehow forcing tm1 server to reload it? Or am I completely missing something???

I am using copy/pasting related TI's tabs into notepad++ for TI editing only. I never modify the *.pro file directly coz it might corrupt the file and crash the server.

Hello

I noticed that a structure like IF-ELSEIF-ENDIF will not work correctly regarding collapsing the full IF:
For example:

Code: Select all

If(c = 2);

  a = 0;
  
ElseIf(c = 3);

	b = 0;
  
EndIf;

# commentaar
# other code

If you now collapse the IF with the minus sign to the left of it (in Notepad++) also the 2 lines of commentary will be hidden.

Anyone who can and wants to have a look at this? Macsir of rkaif?

Thanks!

Wim

Hi, Wim

I have tested the language settings in NP++ but failed. Although NP++ above 6.2 does support Multipart keywords, it still doesn't work well. So, just use the current best version. Maybe once NP++ goes into version 7, I will try it again.
