| Summary | 0015770: Display "inactive" code differently in source editor | ||||
| Description | It would be nice, if "inactive" code could be highlighted (or better lowlighted) in source editor: {$DEFINE Use_Foo} {$IFDEF Use_Foo} // Active code, so normal textcolors for this foo; {$ELSE} // Inactive code, so grayed background or such for this non_foo; {$ENDIF} | ||||

That would be very nice. Obviously the IDE would have to parse the Compiler > Other tab for project global defines defined via -dXXXX too. Alternatively, the {%region} feature could be extended so that the "auto fold" function (eg: {%region 'auto hide me' -fold} ) could be tied into compiler defines as well. I'm not sure what syntax could be used though. // this will be folded by default - current syntax and behaviour {%region 'Auto-generated GUI code' -fold} ... {%endregion} ... maybe something like this... // this will be folded if 'Use_Foo' has been defined {%region 'Auto hide if not appropriate' -ifdef=Use_Foo} ... {%endregion} I'm not sure which implementation will be less effort though. "low lighting" or {%region} |

Graeme, your "alternative" feature is somehow related but a different thing. It wouldn't help me with my cases. So please create a separate feature request for that instead of turning mine into a different one. Thanks. |

No problem. I thought they would be related. Just like you want to semi-hide the inactive code from a IFDEF..ELSE, I thought the {%region} feature could auto-hide that inactive code for you. Maybe I miss understood what you wanted, in that case, ignore my comments. |

Actually, it could be related. The highlighter would need an event for asking a custom HighlighterAttribute/range (properties) so that the SourceEditor can change them based on the CodeTools. This event could also be used for the folding (if codefolding is still coupled with the higlighter as it used to be, that is...). |

CodeFolding (or at least part of it) is based in the highlighter, since highlighting and folding require the same info about the text-structure, and this is parsed in the highlighter. Low-Lighting based on codetools, doesn't require the same structural info (well it does, but it's provided by the more powerfull codetools, taking include files and all that into account). Low-Lighting would have to go into a wrapper. That way it can be avoided that IDE specific code ends up in the more generic parts of SynEdit. The wrapper would be created in SourceEditor, and applied to the SynEdit. |

Awesome! Thank you very much! |
