SyntaxEditor is an editing control, similar to a multi-line TextBox, which syntax highlights text and provides an amazing number of state-of-the-art features for code editing. SyntaxEditor is modeled after the code editor in VS.NET and provides nearly all of its functionality.SyntaxEditor is an editing control, similar to a multi-line TextBox, which syntax highlights text and provides an amazing number of state-of-the-art features for code editing. SyntaxEditor is modeled after the code editor in Visual Studio and provides nearly all of its functionality and more. Custom language definitions can be developed and distributed with your applications. While SyntaxEditor is designed for use in IDE (integrated development environment) applications, there are many other applications out there than can take advantage of such a control

The SyntaxEditor package includes:

• The SyntaxEditor multi/single line edit control.
• The Document class, which allows for parsing and manipulation of code documents with or without the use of a SyntaxEditor (separation of UI and parsing model).

• The SyntaxEditor parser generator that helps construct a robust semantic parser for languages in either C# or VB.NET.
• The semantic parser service that can perform semantic parsing operations in a separate worker thread.
• An object model for building and manipulating an AST (abstract syntax tree) of a code document.
• A custom backtracking NFA regular expression engine, used as the backbone for dynamic language lexical parsing and find/replace operations.
• The TextStylePreview control that visualizes highlighting styles, and the FontDropDownList that allows for easy font selection.
• Many free dynamic language XML definitions for common languages such as C#, VB.NET, HTML, etc.

• Lexical parsing of text into tokens, with the ability to write programmatic lexical parsers and define custom token classes.
• Semantic parsing of tokens, which can output update document tokens, output an AST, or anything else.
• A semantic parser service that can perform semantic parsing operations in a separate worker thread, thereby reducing the load of the main UI thread.

.NET Languages Add-on
Please note that you do NOT require an Enterprise license of SyntaxEditor to purchase the Language add-on. Anyone with any valid license of SyntaxEditor, even a single developer license, can purchase the Enterprise license of the Language add-on. The .NET Languages Add-on is a new product built for use with the SyntaxEditor 4.0 code editing control. It provides an extremely advanced implementation of the C# language with automated IntelliPrompt code snippets, complete word, member lists, parameter info, and quick info. It achieves these features via the use of a custom reflection database that can be populated using external reference assemblies as well as by pointing to specific code files. Other great features include fast lexical parsing, compilation unit building using over 100 AST classes, automatic outlining, document outlining in a TreeView, syntax error wave lines and description tooltips, XML documentation comment auto-complete, smart indent with configurable options, code block selection, line commenting, and code statistics. A VB.NET language implementation will be added to the add-on shortly.

The .NET Languages Add-on implements an advanced C# language for use with the SyntaxEditor code editing control. A VB.NET language implementation is currently in development and will be added to the add-on when complete.

Major features of the .NET languages add-on that can be used by any .NET language that is implemented include:

• An assembly repository that stores reflection information for .NET assemblies at run-time.
• Ability to cache all reflection and documentation to data files which can be loaded extremely quickly once built.
• A project resolver that manages external references (assemblies) for a "project" and coordinates reflection data between the assemblies and code files.
• Over 100 AST node classes for representing .NET code in an AST.
• Easy display of a compilation unit in a code outline TreeView.
• A type/member drop-down list control that can bind to a SyntaxEditor control.

Major features of the C# language include:

• Detailed lexical parsing of tokens down to specific keyword/operator level by using a fast programmatic lexical parser.
• Semantic parser that conforms to the C# 2.0 specification, including generics, and uses the semantic parser service.
• Semantic parser builds an AST based on document text.
• Automatic outlining based on compilation unit.
• Reporting and automatic display of syntax errors.
• Automated IntelliPrompt code snippets, complete word, member lists, parameter info, and quick info.
• IntelliPrompt tips with icons and highlighted text.
• XML comment auto-complete.
• Smart indent with configurable options.
• Code block selection.
• Line commenting.
• Specialized C# text statistics for counting commented lines and determining comment coverage.

Actipro SyntaxEditor Web Languages Add-on provides an advanced language implementation for the XML language. The core SyntaxEditor control provides a free implementation of XML that has syntax highlighting and several other features. However to truly get extended functionality such as automated IntelliPrompt member lists, quick info, AST building, XML formatting and more, you need to get the Web Languages Add-on.
