Hello,
I'm using Codewarrior for years now (Mac, Win, Linux, Palm, Symbian),
so I have lots of code written with the IDE. Now suddenly I found that
in some of my C++ sources, the colorizer stumbles over doublequote
char literals like:
char c = '"'; // singlequote doublequote singlequote
or
char c = '\"'; // singlequote backslash doublequote single-quote
The effect is that all text from the doubleqoute until the next
occurrence of a doublequote is displayed in the color for literal
strings.
After comparing my installation to a colleague's, I found that I have
a plugin in the Editor section called "cpp_no_char_const" he has not.
I removed it and now my colorizer works fine again :-)
What worries me is that I haven't the slightest idea how this plugin
came into my installation and why such a strange-named plugin exists
at all. I know that this used to work a long time, and ceased to work
probably a month or two ago.
Aside from CW Win 8.3 I have also CW Palm 9.2 (merged) installed.
Around the time when this happened, I also installed CW Symbian 2.5
Personal (now transferred to another machine). However this was a
separate installation (no merge offered by the installer,
unfortunately).
Any ideas what could be the benefit of "cpp_no_char_const"? Any reason
to not simply delete it?
Regards,
