Something else odd I've noticed it doing - in one of the stylesheets I'm editing, there are comment blocks at various points of the form /*******************************/ /* Comments of various lengths */ /*******************************/ If there is an odd number of asterisks in the comment line, the subsequent style declarations are fine. However, if there's an even number of asterisks, the subsequent declarations are all displayed in the same grey as the comment, up until the next comment the occurs with an even no. of stars... Further experimentation showed the same behaviour for comments of the form /* **/ /* ***/ etc. - if the closing comment has an even no. of *'s, the subsequent lines continue to be displayed in grey. CSS lexer is described using JavaCC. See xml/css/**jj in CVS. I'll check if I can fix it. Looked at CSSSynstax.jj and realized that it is a good candidate for
moving to lexer. It saves me from hacks that complicates the grammar.
E.g. comment token description with lexer could be as simple as:
<*>
TOKEN:
{
<COMMENT: ("<!--" (~[])* "-->") | ("/*" (~[])* "*/")>
}
Well RE is greedy so it does not work for /*......*/....*/
Another thing I've noticed that currently isn't working properly: /* * */ With nothing after the '*' in the middle line, it gets displayed in red. Add a space or some other character after it, and it displays it in grey like the other two lines. I have fixed property coloring, leaving the rest for the lexer rework. Reassigning all CSS issues to me, I'll transfer them to web/css later fixed |
