FunctionList with file Informix-4gl
-
Hello, first excuse me for my bad english.
I used the normally FunctionList plugin with Informix-4gl language, but after reinstalling Notepad++ is no longer working , does not have the list ( shows "No Rule Defined " ) .
Before I used the settings in FunctionListRules.xml file, but now it seems that no longer works this way …
The basic structure of an Informix-4gl file has functions as follows:
#--------------------------------------#
FUNCTION <function name>(<parameters>)
#--------------------------------------#
function body
END FUNCTIONIn the %APPDATA%\Notepad++\functionList.xml:
<association ext=“.4gl” userDefinedLangName=“Informix-4GL” id=“4gl_function”/>
And I have the following parser , which I copied from somewhere else :
<parser id=“4gl_function” displayName=“Informix-4GL” commentExpr=“(!.?$)“>
<function
mainExpr=”^\sfunction\s*[\w_]+\s*(.)^\send\sfunction\s[\w_]+”
displayMode=“$functionName$”>
<functionName>
<nameExpr expr=“[\w_]+”/>
</functionName>
</function>
</parser>What is wrong?

Hello @Anderson-Quandt-Venancio,
the file in question is the functionlist.xml which is either in the installation directory of npp or in the
%APPDATA%\notepad++ directory.From the given example I assume that # is the char for comments but
your commentExpr used the exclamation mark! ???The mainExpr is looking for
- one whitespace char
- followed by the word function
- followed by whitepsace char (no or unlimited times) ???
- followed by a group of either word chars or underscore char (one or unlimited times)
- followed by whitepsace char (no or unlimited times) ???
- followed by any single char ???
- followed by ^ = reset to start of line … ???
Did this ever work ?? I’m in douubt.
From my point of view it must look more like<parser id="4gl_function" displayName="Informix-4GL" commentExpr="(#.?$)"> <function mainExpr="^\s*function\s+\K[\w_]+(?=\s*\()" displayMode="$functionName$"> <functionName> <nameExpr expr=".+"/> </functionName> </function> </parser>And all of this only works if you have a UDL named Informix-4GL.
Cheers

Thanks for answering.
Excuse me, I do not have much practice with REGEX .
On the first question, yes, # is the character to comment.
And I also have the “Informix-4GL” as a UDL.
I tested your suggestion, placing it in the file “functionlist.xml” in the %APPDATA%/Notepad++ directory, but it did not work even using this simple code :
FUNCTION test(cTest) DEFINE cTest VARCHAR(10) LET cTest = 'Hello!' DISPLAY cTest AT 3,1 END FUNCTIONContinues to present "No Rule Defined "…

Hell @Anderson-Quandt-Venancio,
I tested it, it is working see here.
So question is, what did you do?
What makes me confuse is the message that you get “No rules defined”
I don’t get such message, which npp version do you use.
In addition, can you post your functionList.xml and userDefineLang.xml?Cheers

Hello Claudia,
" No rules defined" is what appears in the header of FunctionList box.
This is my functionlist.xml:

Hello Anderson,
i used your files and it is working for me.
Could it be that you use an older npp version?
Mine is npp 6.8.8.
Did you press the refresh button in function list window?Cheers

Hello Claudia,
I found out what was happening, it is working properly .
In my toolbar appear two buttons on the FunctionList, I was clicking in the second , it does not work . When I used the first appeared properly functions.
Thanks a lot for the help!
