Examples

Here is how to declare a JavaParser and assign it to the edit control from the C# code:

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        var parser = new Alternet.Syntax.Parsers.Lsp.Java.JavaParser();
        var edit = new Alternet.Editor.SyntaxEdit();
        edit.Parent = this;
        edit.Lexer = parser;

        string fileName = "myfile.js";
        if (System.IO.File.Exists(fileName))
        {
            parser.FileName = fileName;
            edit.LoadFile(fileName);
        }
    }
}

Here is how to declare a JavaParser and assign it to the edit control from the Visual Basic code:

Partial Public Class Form1
    Inherits Form

    Public Sub New()
        InitializeComponent()
    End Sub

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
        Dim parser = New Alternet.Syntax.Parsers.Lsp.Java.JavaParser()
        Dim edit = New Alternet.Editor.SyntaxEdit()
        edit.Parent = Me
        edit.Lexer = parser
        Dim fileName As String = "myfile.java"

        If System.IO.File.Exists(fileName) Then
            parser.FileName = fileName
            edit.LoadFile(fileName)
        End If
    End Sub
End Class

Remarks

JavaParser is a non-visual component designed to perform syntax highlighting for Java language.� This LangServer-based parser relies on the Java Language server, which should be installed on the target machine to provide features like full syntax and analysis of the Java code. When linked to the SyntaxEdit or TextEditor controls, this parser drives additional features such as code completion, code outlining, and underlying syntax errors and warnings.

Here are some of the essential features provided by the JavaParser:

  • Syntax Highlighting
  • IntelliSense (Code completion)
  • Code Outlining

Constructors

JavaParser()

Initializes a new instance of the JavaParser class with default settings.

JavaParser(IContainer)

Fields

DefaultJavaCodeCompletionChars

Represents a default collection of characters that initializes a code completion procedure when typing.

DefaultJavaDelimiters

Represents a default collection of delimiter characters.

DefaultJavaSyntaxOptions

Represents default set of flags determining syntax parsing and formatting behavior.

Properties

Repository

Gets a JavaRepository that holds methods for code completion purposes.

Workspace
