Regards,

If it can help you, the archive includes the API file i wrote, the function to retrieve function definitions from a script and the syntax hilighting.
Put the file baan.api in the directory n++/plugin/API
Put the other files a the root of the installation of NPP.

The native support does not seem to work for me. I see the BaanC in the list of languages, but the syntax is not highlighted. Highlighting works for other languages, though. Any hints?

Can you post a screen shot of which highlight is not working?

In general, post installation

go to Settings --> Style Configurator.
Leave theme as the default theme (Only if you have done full installation).
Locate BaanC on the "Language :" box.
Select KEYWORDS under "Style :" box.
Enter all the keywords you want to highlight, in the "User-Defined Keywords" box seperated by a space.
Note that the "Default keywords" box, only has the Baan Reserved keywords and BaanSQL reserver keywords.
Select FUNCTIONS under "Style :" box.
Enter all the functions you want to highlight, in the "User-Defined Keywords" box seperated by a space.
Note that the "Default keywords" box, only has seven functions as a sample.


The details for this behaviour is available inside the file "langs.model.xml" or "langs.xml" located in the installation directory of notepad++.

Functions (Set your Functions based on Baan version & TIV level. in Settings -> Style Configurator -> BaanC -> Functions -> User Defined Keywords)

Also, note that only two sets of highlighting possible for now, as notepad++ uses an older scintilla; once the scintilla component gets upgraded there should 9 sets of highlighting possible.
You can also frame your files based on the attachments from the post by "jph_tours".

Regards,

Thank you very much for your reply.

I see BaanC in the menu Language --> B --> BaanC.

But, when I go Settings --> Style Configurator, there is no BaanC within languages.

Snapshot is here (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8ADxT62WL8ybmJLLTduVUJyaEE/view)

Did I miss anything? I have a full installation of version 7.3.3.

I had this same issue, try to re-install(uninstall, delete old files, install newest version) notepad++, this solved my problem.

BChary, thank you. It solved it for me, too.

I had this same issue, try to re-install(uninstall, delete old files, install newest version) notepad++, this solved my problem.

I think it should be because of how the notepad++ upgrade process works.
After a fresh installation, the following files gets renamed and never gets updated after that... even if there are new changes inside the original <*>.model.xml files.

langs.model.xml --> langs.xml
stylers.model.xml --> stylers.xml


If a fresh installation needs to be avoided, the new changes from the <*>.model.xml can be manually synced up to <*>.xml.

Regards,

Function List works for baan

The below lists are part of the auto-completion now.

Reserved Keywords
Sections
Preprocessor
Pre Defined Variables


If any thing else needs to be added, attach the list and details.

Regards,

The scintilla upgrade for notepad++ implies, most of the features of Scite should be available on Notepad++.

All the features keywords, styles and models are equivalent to the Scite Editor.
