[Dltk-dev] question on console view color style

["Rong Chen" <Rong.Chen@xxxxxxxxx>]

In ScriptConsoleViewer.java,

 

public static class ConsoleDocumentListener implements IDocumentListener {

…

protected void addToPartitioner(int start, String content,

                        boolean isInput, int colorStyle) {

…

}

 

…

}

 

The content is tokenized inside addToPartitioner. There is comment stating that

// Content has to be tokenized in order for style and

                  // hyperlinks to display correctly

 

Since the result of the tokenization on certain content produces too many token, it becomes a performance issue. I want to add style on the whole content at one call like:

addToPartitioner(viewer, new StyleRange(start,

                        content.length(), AnsiColorHelper.COLOR_BLACK,

                        null, SWT.BOLD));

 

But it does not work just like what the comment indicated. Would you please explain me why it does not work?

 

Thanks,

Rong
