Hi

 

I got these from Bodo some time ago.

 

It gives you syntax highlighting and autocomplete.

 

With the API for N++ I  suspect you could write something to connect to the catalogues for an OpenROAD application.

 

Not got round to that yet.

 

Cheers

 

Adrian

 

 

 

 

Hi Adrian,

 

Attached are new versions of the two OR syntax files for Notepad++.

Corrections made:

·         Added some missing class names

·         Removed some duplicate keywords

·         Removed “rubbish” at the end of OpenROAD.xml

 

Regards,

Bodo.

Peter,
I haven't tried ultra edit I like notepad++ for many reasons but the multiple versioning/ backup has saved me a few times
Thanks I'll give it a whirl and might be back

Is this what you mean:

 

II_W4GL_SYSTEMEDITOR=TRUE

 

And

 

II_WINDOWEDIT="C:\Program Files\TextPad 4\Textpad.exe" -t"%t" "%f(%l)"

 

N++ has no command line flag for %t (component title) %f = filename i.e. wa12345.e01 etc

 

So for N++ something like

 

II_WINDOWEDIT=" "c:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe""  "%f"

 

Sorry I’m not at a workstation with N++ on it.

 

Cheers

Here is what I’m using:

 

II_W4GL_SYSTEMEDITOR=TRUE

II_WINDOWEDIT=C:\mybin\or4gledit.bat %f %l %t

II_WINDOWVIEW=C:\mybin\or4gledit.bat %f %l %t

 

The batch file or4gledit.bat has the following content:

 

@echo off

REM echo %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

REM pause

color F1

if "%II_TEMPORARY%"=="" FOR /F "usebackq delims==" %%i IN (`ingprenv II_TEMPORARY`) DO set II_TEMPORARY=%%i

set ORCOMPFILE="%II_TEMPORARY%\%5.Script"

copy /Y %1 %ORCOMPFILE%

cls

echo Do not close this window !!!

echo OpenROAD will close this window when editing has finished.

echo Editing %ORCOMPFILE%

set NPPFLAG=-multiInst -notabbar -nosession

if "%6"=="[View" SET NPPFLAG=-ro

c:\Progra~2\Notepad++\notepad++.exe %ORCOMPFILE% %NPPFLAG% -n%2

if not "%NPPFLAG%"=="-ro"  copy /Y %ORCOMPFILE% %1

 

The script requires II_TEMPORARY to be set (either in the environment or using ingsetenv).

As you see, it copies the original temporary file to another name: componentname.Script, then opening the copy in Notepad++.

When closing Notepad++ the edited file is copied back to the original name (if not in “Read Only” mode).

You can change the script to meet your own expectations, e.g. if you want another extension.

 

For the two xml files (Adrian had sent in a previous mail):

These are the UDL (User Defined Language) file  (OpenROAD_UDL.xml) and the auto-completion file (OpenROAD.xml) for OpenROAD.

The auto-completion file has to be copied into the “C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\APIs” directory.

The UDL file has to be imported into the User Defined Language dialog in Notepad++.

 

HTH.

Bodo.

Hi,

 

We had done a similar thing with our development workstations, however we used Windows Symbolic linking instead of file copy (mklink)

 

We all leave the editors open and save then compile – well at least until OpenROAD stops noticing that we’ve been saving in session.

 

So in effect we can open the script in the editor, make changes and save the file without shutting down the editor. (I find this very handy after making a lot of changes in a script and using the compiler to find all my spelling/syntax mistakes)

 

The trouble with the symbolic linking is that you need to modify group policy and add SeCreateSymbolicLinkPrivilege.

 

In group policy editor (Start – Run - gpedit.msc)

 

 

 

The script itself is more complex as I changed the suffix to ‘.script’ to get N++ to recognise the file.

 

I got this working then ran away as some of the DOS text manipulation made my head hurt.

 

All improvements welcome.

 

Adrian

Hi,
I also would like Syntax Highlighting files for Notepad++. I'm back doing OpenROAD, how about that!

I've tried importing those files into Notepad++ via Setting -> Import -> Import style theme(s) 
but they don't appear to have done anything. Is there some different import I need to do? Some other activation? What am I missing here?

This is a little left field of your question; we've a new script editor built into the latest Windows OpenROAD 6.2 patch. Its not enabled by default as we're still testing and gathering feedback. You can enable via:

    ingsetenv II_SCINT_EDITOR TRUE

(or setting in an OS variable). Once testing/feedback is complete we'll be looking to enable by default. We had a session at the user event in London yesterday where we talked about this. If you have feedback, let us know through the support channels.

Simon,

 

You used the wrong "import" command.

 

Use the "Import…" button in the dialog that comes up when you use the LanguageàDefine your language… menu item.

There you reference the UDL (User defined language) file OpenROAD_UDL.xml

The other file (OpenROAD.xml) is used for auto-completion and has to be placed in the “C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\plugins\APIs” directory.,

Auto-Completion should also be enabled (SettingsàPreferences).

Hi Chris,
This doesn't work at all for me.
Windows 7 64 bit
Ingres 10.2.0 (unpatched)
OpenROAD 6.2.0 Build 15049, Patch 14881

Perhaps that's the problem? Why is the patch before the build?

It's clearly picking up the option because it breaks the built in editor - only usable option is to call the system editor.

HTH

Thanks Bodo, that helps but it still doesn't enable syntax highlighting. Is that supposed to work with these changes?

Hi Simon,

 

Chris wrote that it will require the latest OpenROAD patch.

This is patch number 15087 available here: http://esd.actian.com/product/OpenROAD/6.2/Windows_32-Bit/OpenROAD_6.2.0_Patches

So, you did NOT install the latest patch (14881 is quite old).

 

BTW:

Patch and Build numbers are mentioned - they follow a different numbering scheme.

Build numbers are our internal  OpenROAD build numbers (they are platform and version specific), patch numbers are unique for all OpenROAD/Ingres products.

 

Bodo.

The OpenROAD_UDL.xml specifies syntax highlighting for files with the extension "Script"  (see the "ext" attribute of the <userLang> tag).

Therefore my II_WINDOWEDIT environment variable is using a batch script, that copies the temporary file written by OpenROAD to a componentname.Script file.

See the previous conversation in this thread.

 

What is your II_WINDOWEDIT set to?

Thanks Bodo, I didn't know which one was the latest. I doubt I'll be able to convince them to upgrade either and you can only have one OpenROAD 6.2 environment per PC (why is that?). So I guess I can't contribute to this effort.

Looks like the problem was an old version of Notepad++.

II_WINDOWEDIT=c:\Port_apps\editScript.bat %f %t  %l

Batch file calls Notepad++ but uses a hard link and backs up on reopen - leaves behind files indefinitely otherwise. FWIW. Love the idea that OpenROAD can always see the file, but it seems that it stuffs up if the batch file exits and you change the source later. Perhaps you get some alert if you use a symbolic rather than hard link and that's the reason that approach is superior.

Ø  and you can only have one OpenROAD 6.2 environment per PC

 

You can have many OpenROAD environments on a PC.

Install the Ingres client only installation first – set the Instance ID then install OpenROAD on top.

for the first time in 10 years plus  of OpenROAD I need to debug an img file  - I don't see an option for the  w4glrun command to run in debug mode. Is there a separate command to do this, is it possible to do it?
I am using OR 6.2

thanks

You cannot debug using "w4glrun".

The only  debugging for OpenROAD image files is using the "MonImage" utility (see the OpenROAD Programming Guide),
which you can start using the command "w4gldev runimage iidebug.img".

The debugging options are limited though, as the scripts are stripped from image file components - therefore there is no "Debugging" window - means you cannot "step" through the actual script.

You can use the "Log", "Monitor" and "DB Session" windows there.

 

Bodo.

I've tried that. The first version is uninstalled (with most of the ingres client's files).

It's actually in the release notes for 6.2 that you can only have one 6.2 client per Windows. It's a bit of a pain where I am, mostly because I want to avoid the IIPROMPT crap in the standard netutil entries for this site. They appear to be overwritten if I update them. I wish Ingres had dropped support for that 10 years ago like they were going to IIRC. It would reflect better on OpenROAD and Ingres to force users off that, albeit with some short term pain.

I have OR4x, OR5x and OR6x in separate environments working fine.

 

You are correct, the installer will let me wedge in a second OR62 installation.  That’s a bit of a problem hmmmm.

Is everyone happy with Notepad++? I miss the function for auto complete from editplus, which saved you having to type in "Then" "DO" "ENDIF;" "ENDWHILE;" "ENDFOR;" keywords and could also add the additional level of indent on the following line.

Is this functionality present in Notepad++ and I just haven't found it?

Allan, that provides some functionality for completing individual words and hits for parameters but nothing for adding addition words. I've used another editor which allowed adding the "then" and "endif;" whenever you typed "if". I can't see how to do that in Notepad++.
