Hi,
What I'm unable to do
* attribute suggestion like function parameters
* tooltip
I tried lots of different writings on the properties
autocomplete.hypertext.start.characters
calltip.hypertext.word.characters
calltip.hypertext.end.definition
calltip.hypertext.parameters.start
calltip.hypertext.parameters.separators
calltip.hypertext.parameters.end
But haven't found the right writing to make work an api file with lines
like
<xsl:template match="xpath"> Define an xpath handling template.
Spaces seems to confuse the entry helper.
Of course Scite can't do everything and stay small and efficient, but, I
would like to make it do all it can do.
May be some Scite guru could explain the best configuration ? A simple
and very common example for web developpers could also be
<a href="URL"> A link
Thanks for help, and be sure it will be done for community.
As far as I know, there is no way to display calltips with the standard
SciTE API implementation. This is possible using lua however.
For example, check for a '>' in the OnChar event. Then you can search
backwards for the matching '<' to get a string containing the tag and
its attributes. Now it gets tricky. You can use some lua pattern
matching to match a tag type (e.g. a href="url") and display an
appropriate calltip via editor:CallTipShow.
so something like
if string.find(tag, '^a%s+href=([\'"]).-%1') then
editor:CallTipShow(editor.CurrentPos, "A Link")
end
where tag is "a href='foobar'" etc.
The trick part is how the tag is structured if there are optional
attributes specified, more than one attribute required, etc. Hopefully
that gets you started however.
