Code::Blocks and Scol¶
Multiplatform, Code::Blocks (C::B) is a free C/C++ IDE. This software can be helpful if you develop the Scol language too.
How to add the Scol highlighting ?¶
- Once C::B installed, go to C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\share\CodeBlocks\lexers directory (adapt this path to your case, if any) if you are on a MS Windows system or go to /usr/share/codeblocks/lexers if you are on GNULinux.
- Create two files : lexer_scol.sample and lexer_scol.xml
- Open lexer_scol.sample, add these lines :
/* * Sample preview code * This is a block comment */ typeof string = S;; // this is a line comment fun CBend (obj, user_param)= _closemachine;; /* * This is a documentation comment block */ fun main () { // This is a documentation comment line _showconsole; set string = "Hello World !"; _fooS string; let _CRwindow _channel nil 0 0 250 60 WN_NORMAL string -> window in if window != nil then ( _CBwinClose window @CBend 0; 0 ) else ( _fooS "Unable to create a window !"; 1 );; } - Open lexer_scol.xml, add that :
<?xml version="1.0"?> <!DOCTYPE CodeBlocks_lexer_properties> <CodeBlocks_lexer_properties> <Lexer name="Scol/PKG" index="3" filemasks="*.pkg"> <Style name="Default" index="0,11" fg="0,0,0" bg="255,255,255" bold="0" italics="0" underlined="0"/> <Style name="Default (inactive)" index="64,72,75" fg="200,200,200"/> <Style name="Comment (normal)" index="1,23,65,87" fg="160,160,160"/> <Style name="Comment line (normal)" index="2,66" fg="190,190,230"/> <Style name="Comment (documentation)" index="3,67" fg="128,128,255" bold="1"/> <Style name="Comment line (documentation)" index="15,79" fg="128,128,255" bold="1"/> <Style name="Comment keyword (documentation)" index="17,81" fg="0,128,128"/> <Style name="Comment keyword error (documentation)" index="18,82" fg="128,0,0"/> <Style name="Number" index="4" fg="240,0,240"/> <Style name="Number (inactive)" index="68" fg="240,200,240"/> <Style name="Keyword" index="5" fg="0,0,160" bold="1"/> <Style name="Keyword (inactive)" index="69" fg="135,135,200" bold="1"/> <Style name="User keyword" index="16" fg="0,160,0" bold="1"/> <Style name="User keyword (inactive)" index="80" fg="154,200,154" bold="1"/> <Style name="Global classes and typedefs" index="19" fg="190,0,190" bold="1"/> <Style name="Global classes and typedefs (inactive)" index="83" fg="190,137,190" bold="1"/> <Style name="String" index="6,12" fg="0,0,255"/> <Style name="String (inactive)" index="70,76" fg="190,190,255"/> <Style name="Character" index="7" fg="224,160,0"/> <Style name="Character (inactive)" index="71" fg="224,206,159"/> <Style name="Operator" index="10" fg="255,0,0"/> <Style name="Operator (inactive)" index="74" fg="255,200,200"/> <Style name="Selection" index="-99" bg="192,192,192"/> <Style name="Active line" index="-98" bg="255,255,160"/> <Style name="Breakpoint line" index="-2" bg="255,160,160"/> <Style name="Debugger active line" index="-3" bg="160,160,255"/> <Style name="Compiler error line" index="-4" bg="255,128,0"/> <Style name="Matching brace highlight" index="34" fg="0,0,0" bg="128,255,255" bold="1"/> <Style name="No matching brace highlight" index="35" fg="255,255,255" bg="255,0,0" bold="1"/> <Keywords> <Set index="0" value="I S F Env Chn Srv Comm r1 r2 fun proto typedef struct var typeof defcom defcomvar if then else while do exec with match"/> <Set index="1" value="set let in mutate tab nil"/> </Keywords> <SampleCode value="lexer_scol.sample" breakpoint_line="20" debug_line="22" error_line="23"/> <LanguageAttributes LineComment="//" StreamCommentStart="/*" StreamCommentEnd="*/" BoxCommentStart="/* " BoxCommentMid=" * " BoxCommentEnd=" */" CaseSensitive="1"/> </Lexer> </CodeBlocks_lexer_properties> - Save these two files
- Launch C::B
- Select Settings in the menu bar, next Editor. Choose Highlight.
- In the combo box, verify Scol/PKG
- Now, you can open your packages in C::B
How to add the Scol project ?¶
- Download the Scol wizard for C::B (see in the bottom of this page)
- Extract the archive in C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard (on MS Windows system) or /usr/share/codeblocks/templates/wizard (on GNU/Linux)
- Edit the C:\Program Files\CodeBlocks\share\CodeBlocks\templates\wizard\config.script (on MS Windows) or /usr/share/codeblocks/templates/wizard/config.script file
- In the function RegisterWizards() (normally, it is the first function), add this line :
// add Scol support RegisterWizard(wizProject, _T("scol"), _T("Scol application"), _T("Scol")); - Save it
- Launch C::B if this is not already done
- Go to Settings menu, next Compiler
- In the Compiler combo box, select the GNU GCC Compiler and click on Copy. Rename it in "Scol compiler".
- "Scol compiler" should be compiled. Choose the Toolchain executables".
- In the "Compiler directory" field, enter the Scol installation directory (C:\Program Files\Scol Voyager by default on MS Windows)
- In "Program files" sub-tab, enter "scol.exe" in all fields
- Click on "OK"
How to add the Scol executable to run a project ?¶
I'm not sure that this is possible ...
Maybe via a script ?
