Re: String Literals in CLLE VS RPGLE

Stu, interesting, can you explain how I might associate
"User Symbol" with a particular literal ?

Ken, thanks for asking!

Oh but it DOES have that, just not called "literals". There is "Numeric"
and "Numeric2" for numeric literals appearing in different places. Also "User Symbol" and "User Symbol2" for character literals. I know because I had to find them to make them black (personally I hate them being colored). For the SQL flavor, there are "SQL Numeric Constant" and "SQL Character String Constant".

Why is that I can format string Literals inside of CLLE, but not

I am talking about this preference:

Windows>Preference>Lpex Editor>parsers>parser Styles

CL has "Literals" for color formatting...

While RPG, ILERPG & ILERPGSQL does not have the option for "Literals"...

I would think there might be RFE. If there is one, I would certainly
vote for that!

To see my literal in a different color, was the first thing I loved
about color syntax. It is the most used feature in my other tools. It
just seems strange that LPEX for RPG does NOT have this... <Big Frown>

I am stuck using good old NotePad++ to edit my complex literal statements.
