All Visual Studio language service features run on separate threads from the 
main UI thread. I have several posts on my blog (http://blog.280z28.org/) 
talking about ANTLR/Visual Studio integration for language services. If you are 
interested, I could probably add articles on the following:

 

·         Ensuring your language service doesn’t slow down the IDE (like 
Eclipse does, for example)

·         Highlighting errors in the IDE. This is supported in the Managed 
Babel framework and is relatively easy to add to an ANTLR language service. All 
of my language services, including the ones for nFringe, support this feature.

Subject: [antlr-interest] Highlighting syntax errors

 

Hi,

When I parse an input in ANTLRWorks IDE, I can see which portion of the input 
has errors using the 'input' window in the debugger. Syntax error (handled by 
automatic error recovery) will be highlighted in red. While this is a very 
useful feature, I cannot parse a very big file (approx 1 mb) inside the IDE as 
that would be very slow. Is there a way to do this "error highlighting" outside 
the IDE using the error handling techniques? I looked into chapter 10. But 
didn't get any hint.

Advanced thanks for any pointers :-)
