String Values Not Highlighted if Spread Across Lines - SQL Code I do not know whether it is a bug in the EmEditor core or in its plugin engine or even it is possibly a defect in the highlighter definition (I just cannot dedicate time learning it), but I'll post here this as my question to rule out any doubt:
When I write SQL code in EmEditor I get no strings highlighted if they span more than one line and this is misleading developing code like that. I am showing examples next here for SQL Server Management Studio http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/221/sqlcodeinssms.png/ that does this properly versa EmEditor http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/715/sqlinemeditor.png/ that unfortunately does not. |

Re: String Values Not Highlighted if Spread Across Lines - SQL Code Hello,
Please check the "Continue to Next Line" check box on the Highlight (2) tab of configuration properties. Should this be checked by default? Thanks!

Re: String Values Not Highlighted if Spread Across Lines - SQL Code Oh my God! Yes, yes, yes!!! By all means! It is unbelievable how much grief I suffered because I didn't understand this feature...

Re: String Values Not Highlighted if Spread Across Lines - SQL Code I say yes.
But in what languages keeping the "Continue to Next Line" setting does not make sense I am curious? Let's apply the laws of democracy, if in most languages this setting does not make sense then let's keep it as is, but I doubt this is the case. |
