Hello ActiPro team,

We have encountered an issue with tuples - they are highlighted  by red line as incorrect statement:

var a = (A: 10, B: 20);

Are tuples supported by SyntaxEditor?

Hi Alex,

C# 7.x syntax (including this tuple syntax) should be supported as of v2020.1.  I suspect you are on an earlier version that what you indicated in the original post?

Oh, sorry, indeed.

I'm just confused about the versions of my program - what have old SyntaxEditor and what uses the new one.

Hello, I am having a syntax highlighting issue with tuples as well with the latest 2021 version. This code works:

(int A, int B) things = null;

But this code says it's invalid syntax:

System.Collections.Generic.List<(int A, int B)> things = null;

I can compile and run the code fine, it's just reported as a syntax error. Is there planned support for this syntax? Thanks!

Hi Jon,

Thanks for reporting this.  We fixed the problem in the parser for the next build.

Thanks for the quick help! :)

The latest build of this product (v24.1.1) was released 3 months ago, which was after the last post in this thread.
