Not sure if I'm supposed to use ParseData, a reader, etc.
We're using SyntaxEditor as a built-in C# code editor. When the user compiles, I want to parse the using directives and add any new ones to the IEnumerable collection with namespaces for the Microsoft compiler.
I ended up using the GetReader, thanks!
var reader = codeDocument.GetReader(0);
while (reader.GoToNextToken())
{
var codeLine = reader.SnapshotLine.Text;
if (codeLine.StartsWith("using"))
{
// Parse ot the namespace reference
var reference = codeLine.Split(' ')[1];
// Strip of trailing semi-colon
// Namespace to compiler reference list
AddNamespaceReference(reference.TrimEnd(';'));
}
else
{
break;
}
}
Hi Scott,
Do I understand correctly that you want to basically examine the document's AST that was built by our C# parser and look for using directives? If so, you can see the AST in the Document Outline tool window of our SDI Code Editor demo. The default document shows how a CompilationUnit root AST node contains a UsingDirectiveSection and that has UsingDirectives inside it. The latest AST is available in the document's ParseData property.
Thanks I might try that method!
Hmm... Seems more complex than my string searching solution above :-D
