I am trying to add the syntax plugin for the TAL (Transaction Application Language) in Notepad++
I have downloaded the xml file for TAL from http://docs.notepad-plus-plus.org/index.php/User_Defined_Language_Files and kept in C:\Users[user]\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++ folder.
After the above step, I have restarted Notepad++ and I could see all the keywords are getting highlighted correctly but the expand/collapse of the blocks are not working as expected.
The downloaded xml file has the following lines for the code expand/collapse.
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, open">BEGIN ?nolist</Keywords>
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, middle"></Keywords>
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, close">END; ?list</Keywords>
As per the above xml statement the block ends at END; (Semicolon)
The syntax for the conditional statements will be as below,
IF CONDITION1 THEN
BEGIN
statements;
END;
IF CONDITION2 THEN
BEGIN
statements;
END -- no semicolon
ELSE IF CONDITION3 THEN
BEGIN
statements;
END;
The expand/collapse is working good for the first syntax example. In the second syntax the first BEGIN ending at END;(semicolon) where as it should end at END (No semicolon)
I have modified the third line to
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, close">END ?list</Keywords>
and I started seeing the block ending at the partial words as below.
IF CONDITION4 THEN
BEGIN
statements;
SENDTOSERVER(); -- ending here as END is present
statements;
END;
Changing the third line to any of below line also resulted the same.
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, close">END END; ?list</Keywords>
<Keywords name="Folders in code1, close">"END" "END;"?list</Keywords>
How can I match ending blocks to either END or END; (complete word). I am using the notepad++ version 7.2.2
