      NppGTags

      @James-Richters

      Just to set expectations:
      TagsView - bundles a ctags implementation as well and looks most like the built-in Function List and/or SourceCookifier screenshot above (docking window panel).
      TagLEET - is my fork of the “official” (which hasn’t been updated in quite some time) plugin. My fork works with current N++ but will have issues with larger (>2Gb files since I have not converted all the int=>int_ptr throughout. It too bundles ctags and generates it for you, but is more about in-text navigation; there is no docking panel showing all the tags.
      NppGTags - I have not used this other than to test. I believe it’s more like TagLEET in that it does in-text navigation of tags. I believe there is a docking panel, but I think that just shows possible tags based on current word, not a full list. I could be mistaken.

      I use TagLEET (obviously) and now that SourceCookifier is back for 64-bit (finally!!!) - I’ll use that once in a while. The nice bit about SourceCookifier is it can act on all open files, not just the current one. So in that respect, it can help more with larger projects of multiple files (where TagLEET helps with navigation as well).

      Cheers.

        Can’t I just define that the word “Interface” starts a multi line comment and the word “Implementation” ends it? The declarations need to always be between those two words… so it should be easy to just ignore everything between them

          Why yes I can!

          Screenshot 2022-12-21 143711.png

          I am positive the Regex I used to make this work is completely wrong… but I just took a wild guess and stuck in:

          			commentExpr="(?x)                                                                      # Utilize inline comments (see `RegEx - Pattern Modifiers`)
          						   (?s:\x7B.*?\x7D)                                                        # Multi Line Comment 1st variant
          						 | (?s:Interface\x2A.*?\x2A\Implementation)                                # Multi Line Comment 2nd variant
          						 | (?s:\x28\x2A.*?\x2A\x29)                                                # Multi Line Comment 2nd variant
          						 | (?m-s:\x2F{2}.*$)                                                       # Single Line Comment
          						 "
          
          

          the Regex could probably be improved to not be case sensitive (and be correct)

            @James-Richters ,

            I was originally thinking “you cannot hold the Interface/Implementation state inside the regex while still being able to match all the functions/procedures”. But that was a clever workaround, making your “comment” definition just exclude everything between those two keywords. Great idea!

            to not be case sensitive

            That part’s easy:

            ...
            | (?is:Interface\x2A.*?\x2A\Implementation) 
            ...
            

            (and be correct)

            Looking at your regex, I was confused as to why you have the \x2A in there, since I don’t see any asterisks in your example code. So I think maybe those are the things that are causing the problem for you.

            ...
            | (?is:Interface\x2A.*?\x2A\Implementation) 
            ...
            

            If that’s your problem, then I am assuming you started from

            | (?s:\x28\x2A.*?\x2A\x29)                                                # Multi Line Comment 2nd variant
            

            and just changed the \x28 and \x29 portions. If so, you maybe didn’t understand that regex.

            • \x28\x2A says "match literal characters (* … "
            • .*? means "… followed by 0 or more other characters (as few as possible), until … "
            • \x2A\x29 says “… match literal characters *)”

            Where \x followed by two hexadecimal digits is a way to represent any character by the hex representation of its ASCII code. So \x2A in a regex means “match the ASCII character at hex position 2A, which is decimal 42, which is the asterisk character *”

            (The Search Engine That Knows All tells me that (* ... *) is a valid Pascal multiline comment sequence, so I think my interpretation is reasonable.)

            If you don’t want to require an asterisk after Interface or before Implementation, and don’t want it case sensitive, then use

            ...
            | (?is:Interface.*?Implementation) 
            ...
            

            So that should probably fix things for you.

              Well, I really have no clue when it comes to Regex… so I thought maybe the asterisks were wild cards… like “include everything”

              I literally copied and pasted the line below it and fiddled around with it until it worked.

              That works great! Case insensitive and everything, Thank you!

              What is the best way to submit this so other Pascal users can have the definition header filtered out of their units as well?

                At the very least, create an official issue. If you have the git/github skills necessary, you could create a PR to go with that issue; if not, just attach the updated function list pascal.xml to your issue, and if one of the developers likes the idea, they may create the PR for you. ( @dinkumoil may be interested, being the one who originally submitted the pascal function list last month… or @rdipardo has already shown an interest here. My mentioning of specific users makes no guarantee, nor in any way volunteers nor commits them to do something they don’t have the time or inclination for. )

                    Of course, I am interested in potential bugs in my function list parser.

                    @James-Richters
                    However, I can not reproduce your issue.

                    My function list parser is a mixed parser because nowadays most Pascal variants are object oriented, so a class parser and a function parser are put together to form a mixed parser. Since your example code doesn’t contain objects, for you the relevant part of my parser is the function XML tag. Its mainExpr attribute contains the regular expression to detect function definitions and to avoid procedure and function declarations in the interface section (see this line and the following 8 lines) and forward declarations in the implementation section (see this line).

                    Avoiding procedure/function declarations in the interface section is done by a positive look ahead (?=(...))that requires a procedure or function header to be followed by at least one of a list of certain keywords (CONST, TYPE, VAR, LABEL or BEGIN) or by the definition of an inline procedure or function ((?R) which triggers regex recursion).

                    Triggered by this forum thread, for testing my parser I used the following source code:

                    unit FooBar;
                    
                    
                    interface
                    
                    uses
                      System.SysUtils;
                    
                    
                    procedure Foo(AParam: integer);
                    function  Bar(const AParam: string): integer;
                    
                    
                    
                    implementation
                    
                    procedure Foo(AParam: integer);
                    begin
                      // Do something
                    end;
                    
                    
                    function Bar(const AParam: string): integer;
                    begin
                      // Do something
                    
                      Result := 0;
                    end;
                    
                    
                    end.
                    

                    This is minimalistic but similar to the code provided by you as screenshot. It doesn’t produce duplicates in function list.

                    From your comments I’m not sure if you really tested my parser or if you tested yours. So, please clarify which parser you used. Please note: In an installed version of Notepad++ you have to put the parser’s file to C:\Users\<UserName>\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++\functionList.

                    Nevertheless, your solution to include everything between the interface and implementation statements into the commentExpr tag is a clever way to simplify of avoiding procedure/function declarations in the interface section are shown in function list panel. If no other person decides to improve my parser, I will try to integrate your solution when I have some spare time. But most likely this will not happen during X-Mas holidays, it may take some weeks if not months because changing and testing regex code I developed and improved over three years is not a quick and easy task, at least for me.

                    BTW: Maybe @guy038 can have a look at my parser. As a regex specialist he may find some potential improvements.

                      @dinkumoil First of all, Thank You for developing a Pascal function list parser! I have some really large pascal projects with hundreds of functions and procedures and it’s going to save me a lot of time navigating them.

                      @dinkumoil said in Help Adding Pascal to Function List:

                      From your comments I’m not sure if you really tested my parser or if you tested yours. So, please clarify which parser you used.

                      As soon as I found out there was already a Pascal function list parser I was available, I abandoned my attempt at it because I really have absolutely no idea, especially when it comes to regex. So I installed Notepad++ v8.4.8 Release Candidate 3, and after that, my Pascal files had no function list anymore, because v8.4.8 did not include your Pascal parser… so I found out it was included in the portable version, so I downloaded that, and copied the missing file to the v8.4.8 installation, and then it worked, but I had duplicates of everything in the interface section, and putting the extra line in the file I just copied over seemed to fix it.

                      but now I’m questioning if that really fixed it or if I somehow got back on my old attempt? I guess it’s possible… So What I will do to get to the bottom of this, is install Notepad ++ different computer and test it again from scratch on that… that way we can be sure that I didn’t somehow get back on my old parser. I will let you know the results, and if I still have the issue, I will provide a sample program to demonstrate it.

                        @dinkumoil : I installed Notepad++ on another computer and at first I thought the Pascal function list was fine… it wasn’t showing any duplicates from the implementation section, but then I tried to load one of my huge units, and I had duplicates again, but I figured out what happened… I had some procedures commented out from the implementation section, I didn’t need them to be called from outside the unit, or I replaced them with something else… but commenting something out with { curly braces } makes it show everything before the curly braces.

                        Here I have a very small unit that demonstrates the issue…
                        Edit: I had an actual small unit here but it got flagged as spam so I made another one based on your example, but then I didn’t have the problem, it took me a while but I figured out that the comments after the End; of the function are needed to reproduce the issue.

                        Here is the sample code:

                        unit FooBar;
                        
                        Interface
                        Uses CRT,Windows;
                        procedure Foo(AParam: integer);
                        function  Bar(const AParam: string): integer;
                        {function  Test(Tnum:Double): DWord;   //Removeing the curly braces fixes it}
                        procedure Boo(AParam: integer);
                        
                        Implementation
                        
                        procedure Foo(AParam: integer);
                        begin
                          // Do something
                        end; { func. Foo  If these comments are not here, it doens't happen }
                        
                        function Bar(const AParam: string): integer;
                        begin
                          // Do something
                        
                          Result := 0;
                        end; { func. Bar }
                        
                        function Test(Tnum:Double): DWord;
                        begin
                          // Do something
                        
                          Result := 0;
                        end;{ func. Test }
                        
                        procedure Boo(AParam: integer);
                        begin
                          // Do something
                        
                          Result := 0;
                        end;
                        
                        Begin
                        end.
                        

                        You can see things above the commented out section are duplicated. In my original test, I had some units more than 100 functions down commented out like this, so I had a lot of duplicates.

                        screenshot1.PNG

                        If I would have commented them out with // instead, then it works fine, unfortunately I have a LOT of units and many times I would comment things out with { } just to show what was in the unit… it would be a monumental undertaking to go through and change them all.

                        screenshot2.PNG

                        Unfortunately, my idea to make a comment out of everything between Interface and Implementation also does not work in this case… but I figured out it’s because multiline comments are not working correctly. See the example below, the multiline comments only work if there is something on the line that begins them, not it it’s on the line above by itself:
                        screenshot3.PNG

                        Everything should be commented out except Dummy1, but 2 and 5 are not… even though in the code they clearly are.

                        I don’t have a clue how to fix this. I just don’t know enough about how it all works, but I think if the multiline comments worked the way they are supposed to, even if there is nothing on the line following the beginning of the comment, then this would work, but how to do that?

                          I don’t know how that could happen, but when I commited my Pascal/Delphi FunctionList parser I accidentally commited an outdated version. That’s the reason why I wasn’t able to reproduce your issue locally - with the Notepad++ installations on my machine I use an improved version of the parser. :-(

                          I created an issue and a related pull request on GitHub that includes the improvements of the parser I use locally.

                          Hopefully @donho will include this PR into the upcoming v8.4.8 release though it’s commited so late.

                            Bad news, my PR I mentioned above is faulty, it didn’t pass the unit test at GitHub. The version I commited in this PR seems also to be outdated.

                            Since I’m not at home, I’m not able to fix the issue at the moment, you have to wait at least until next week for a working parser.

                              @dinkumoil No Problem at all, the parser version I have is WAY better than the non-existent parser I had a few days ago :)
                              So have a nice holiday, and thank you for your efforts.

                                Hello, @james-richters, @rdipardo, @peterjones, @michael-vincent, @dinkumoil and All,

                                Allow me to invite myself in your conversation. I did some texts and the following Pascal parser should meet your needs !


                                • Save the following text, in the functionList folder, with name Pascal.xml, as an UTF-8 encoded file :
                                <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
                                <!-- =================================================================================

                                • Click on the View > Function List option

                                => You should get this picture :

                                As you can verify :

                                • All the declarations, between the Interface and Inplementation boundaries, are not listed as expected

                                • All text between the multi-lines comment (\* and \*) is not listed as expected

                                • All text between the multi-lines comment { and } is not listed, too, as expected

                                • All text beginning a single-line comment // is not listed in the Function List window, as expected


                                Of course, as I don’t know the Pascal language, I may have missed some obvious constructions, which must be seen in the Fucntion List window. Just tell me about it ?

                                See you later,

                                Best Regards,

                                  Although I’m on vacation, I found some time to update my parser. Have a look at my PR.

                                    @guy038,

                                    After transforming your sample into a valid source file [^1], it seems your parser has lost the ability to find nested procedures.

                                    pascal.xml-nodebb-rev.png

                                    @dinkumoil’s (corrected) parser finds them, at the expense of also detecting the commented-out ones (i.e., the ones “nested” within block comments.)

                                    pascal.xml-upstream.png

                                    As written, the rule is satisfied anytime the first alphabetic sequence in any line happens to be an implementation keyword. The only time the rule fails is when a comment marker is directly followed by an implementation keyword.

                                    There needs to be an expression that can check the previous line for the start of a block comment. Unfortunately, look-behind expressions are explicitly not allowed by the function parser specification.

                                    Even without testing, I’m confident this is reproducible in other languages with function parsers. It’s just a fundamental limitation of the specification.

                                      I can confirm that the new version of my parser causes commented-out procedures/functions to be part of the function list.

                                      There needs to be an expression that can check the previous line for the start of a block comment.

                                      The core problem seems to be how matching and processing block comments is realized in the related C++ code that fills the function list panel. There is a special section in the XML file of function list parsers to define line and block comments. I expect that code, that is recognized as commented-out by the regexes in this section, is not parsed anymore by the regex that identifies procedure/function implementations. But that’s obviously not the case and I’m wondering what’s the sense of the comment-definition section in the parser file, respectively how it is processed.

                                      Maybe the same behaviour of the C++ code that fills the function list panel is the cause that I was not able to define everything between the interface and implementation keywords as a comment. I used a similar expression like @guy038 (i.e. (?is:^\h* Interface.*?^\h*Implementation\s*)) but it didn’t work, it was just ignored. Trying this regex in the normal search-and-replace dialog of Notepad++ gave the expected result but in function list parser I had duplicate entries for procedure/function declarations.

                                      Maybe someone with C++ knowledge (maybe @rdipardo ?) should have a look at the function list code to check how it processes the regexes from the parser file.

                                        Hi, @james-richters, @rdipardo, @peterjones, @michael-vincent, @dinkumoil and All,

                                        Yes, of course: my test and parser examples were deliberately sketchy to only highlight that the declarations in the [Interface - Implementation] range were correctly ignored, as well as all text in comments

                                        @dinkumoil, I also consulted your new Pascal parser and indeed, I am far from matching you on this point !

                                        @dinkumoil, you said :

                                        … I was not able to define everything between the interface and implementation keywords as a comment. I used a similar expression like @guy038 (i.e. (?is:^\h* Interface.?^\hImplementation\s*)) but it didn’t work, it was just ignored.

                                        But, obviously, my simple example shows that it seems to work ?! So, @dinkumoil, @rdipardo, can you enlighten me on this apparent contradiction ?

                                        Please, do not spend too much time on this : I’ll take your word for it !

                                        Best Regards,

                                        guy038

                                          can you enlighten me on this apparent contradiction ?

                                          When I remove the class parser part of my mixed parser (i.e. the whole classRange XML node) I’m able to define everything between the interface and implementation keywords as a comment.

                                          So, again it seems necessary to analyse the C++ code that processes function list parser files and fills the tree in function list panel.

                                          But maybe you @guy038 are lucky and can find content for the class parser part that doesn’t cause the comment expression to fail. I already tried to use empty regexes in the class parser, that failed too. Seems like the simple presence of a class parser part is the root cause.

                                            Meanwhile a fix has been applied to the source code of Notepad++ that allows your fix (to define source code between the interface and implementation keywords as a multi-line comment) to work reliably if it is used in a mixed function list parser. You can download a preview version (including that fix) of Notepad++ 32 bit >>from here<< and the 64 bit version >>from here<<.

                                            Additionally, some fixes have applied to my Pascal/Delphi function list parser (including your fix to define source code between the interface and implementation keywords as a multi-line comment). You can download it >>from here<<.

                                            So, we Delphi developers should have a working solution.
