Okay, so I got alternative regular expressions to work in the CLM for
strings and comments. I still have a problem with functions.
-- Functions look like
function sqroot(x, guess)
guess = guess or 2
local dividend = x/guess
if math.abs(guess - dividend)/guess < 1.0e-8
return guess
else
return sqroot(x, (guess+dividend)/2)
end
end
-- Or a function could be a member of a structure (in this case a
table referenced by 'a':
function a.myFunction()
-- ...
end
-- Or an object method:
function MyStruct:do_good_things(for_the_children)
-- ...
end
The regular expression that works for me in Find is:
(?s)^([ \t]*)function\s+(?P<function_name>[A-Za-z_:.]+).+?\r\1end\b
The intention is to match an end statement with the same leading
whitespace as the function line.
But putting it into lua.plist (substituting < and > for < and >)
does not populate the function popup.
If I remove the attempt to match indentation ( ([ \t]*) ... \1 ), the
function popup will match all functions aligned at the left margin
(and code folding works), but I regard this as an incomplete solution.
The back-matching should work, it seems to me.
Again: what's up?
