Lexilla is a library of lexers that can be used with Scintilla or independently.
https://www.scintilla.org/Lexilla.html
Lexilla 5.5.1 is now available from the
scintilla.org web site.
This is a normal release containing features and fixes.
There were improvements for Baan, HTML, and XML.
Some out-of-bounds writing code was fixed for Baan.
For HTML and XML, styling of CDATA was changed to style only the contents in SCE_H_CDATA which more clearly shows the data. The tags surrounding this are styled in a combination of SCE_H_SGML_COMMAND and SCE_H_SGML_DEFAULT.
A signed version of Lexilla.DLL is included in the SciTE Windows executable download that can be used by downstream projects. It is signed "Open Source Developer, Neil Hodgson".
A C++17 compiler is required to build Lexilla. Microsoft Visual C++ 2022, GCC 9.0, Clang 9.0, Xcode 14 Clang or newer will work. Some slightly older compilers may still work.
A list of changes is available on the history page.
