SyntaxEditor Hangs - SyntaxEditor for Windows Forms Forum

Posted 18 years ago by Barry Ahrens - Member of Technical Staff, Teledyne Scientific

I am trying to debug a problem when I have over 1000 lexical patterns defined.

The main hangup seems to occur in the lexical parsing somewhere between:

After: editor_KeyTyping

Before: editor_DocumentModifiedChanged

What kind of processing is going on at this stage?

Any ideas to keep the program from hanging?

Thanks very much

Hi Barry,

I haven't heard of it hanging up like that unless maybe you were using a regex pattern somewhere with a couple * (all char) things in it or something similar. In which case it would not be locked but chugging through possibilities, appearing to be locked.

Could you email over your language definition and send the steps needed to repro it in the sample project? Then we can debug it.

The processing after KeyTyping is simply checking for an auto-replace trigger and then firing the command.
