Hello all --
I've gotten partway to getting this working, but am completely lost
searching for understandable documentation on how to get the rest of the
way there.
I have a JavaScript "compiler", which analyzes an input file (named
.jss, to differentiate input and output files) for various
inconsistences and warns about what it finds, using an idiosyncratic
format for messages. For example, given flip.jss
function flip(arg) {
return arg == false;
}
var value = flip('trueString');
the output is
>jsc /home/howard/tmp/flip.jss;
Warning [flip.jss:5:18]: type mismatch:
conflict between boolean [flip.jss:2:16]
and string [flip.jss:5:18]
>Exit code: 0
I've figured out how to get this run from within SciTE: my .SciTEUser.properties
file says
file.patterns.jss=*.jss
command.compile.$(file.patterns.jss)=jsc $(FilePath);
but that's as far as I've gotten.
1. Is .SciteUser.properties the correct place for file.patterns and
command.compile definitions? If I want to deliver this to other
users, is it OK to put it in SciTEGlobal.properties?
2. How do I tell SciTE how to parse the error messages so that it
will move to the correct line (and column?) in the source file?
I've read something documenting "output.format", but don't know
how to link that with this command. Can I define a regular expression
telling SciTE how to parse the message, or is this hard-coded?
(Clicking on the line "Warning [flip.jss:..." does nothing; but
clicking on either of the other two messages *does* place the yellow
bullet on the correct line in the source. Why?)
Thanks for your help.
