Hi

I have a language file that starts:

<SyntaxLanguage Key="MyLanguage" LanguageDefinitionVersion="3.0"
Secure="True" WordContainsAdditionalCharacters="@_"
TokenIDTypeName="MyNamespace.MyTokenIDs, MyAssembly"
xmlns="http://ActiproSoftware/SyntaxEditor/3.0/LanguageDefinition">


...

and an enum that starts:

namespace MyNamespace
{
public enum MyTokenIDs
{

DefaultToken,
WhitespaceToken,

...



but I keep getting the exception:

The language 'MyLanguage' has a TokenIDTypeName however the lexical state 'DefaultState' contains a token 'DefaultToken' and no integer constant on the 'MyNamespace.MyTokenIDs' class could be found with the name 'DefaultToken'.



I know its loading the type because if I change the Type name I get a different 'can't load type' error.

I've tried using a public class with public const int DefaultToken = 1; etc but that gives the same error.

Any ideas as to what I've missed

Thanks
Russell Mason

It looks like you're doing it correctly. Could you possibly send us a tiny sample project to show the problem and we can debug it for you?

Hi Russell,

Ok, the problem is simply that the first item in your enum is getting a value of 0 (zero). If you set the first enum item's value to 1, it should work. The value zero is the default ID value and means "no ID value is set" to SyntaxEditor.
