Bring the power of the Visual Studio Code editor to your applications

Tuesday, December 13, 2022

People have been asking for a cross-platform syntax highlighting memo. With the increasing popularity of Visual Studio Code, we started investigating if we could integrate this into a FNC Component. With the use of WX Pack technology, we were able to wrap this in a component and expose the functionality to our users in a TTMSFNCMemo

Integrate in your application

We have done most of the heavy lifting for you. So the user simply needs to drop it on the form and it should work out of the box. You can set your preferred programming language, change theme's and much more. You can even do some basic editting in the form designer to get a hang of how it works.

Features

The TTMSFNCMemo has a ton of features already supported

Code Completion

The editor registeres variables and keywords inside the editor and you can use code completion to trigger them. As an added bonus are Javascript, HTML and CSS fully supported with a ton of browser api's.

Find & Replace

You can trigger this inside the component or build your own dialogs and use the procedure's provided.

Minimap

Like in visual studio code you have a code minimap to navigate quickly.

Theme

The same themes as in VSC are available in the TTMSFNCMemo.

And there will be many more features to come.

Thank you for your comment. There is no noteworthy impact on the size of the compiled executable.

Very cool! Is there any thought of using this for the VCL TMS Scripter Editor?

This should indeed eventually be possible.

Nice - will it support multiple edit windows for the same file - i.e. like most IDEs? i.e. you can open new views into the same file & any edits done on one editor automagically appear in the others?

It is still a one instance per source file at this moment but we planned to add management for multiple files with a single memo instance for the next version.
