Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has any pointers for adding new programming
languages to Xcode 3.0 (for syntax highlighting, at a minimum). It
seems the format of these files has changed since 2.x.
Previously, you could create .pbfilespec and .pblangspec files and
place them in
~/Library/Application Support/Apple/Developer Tools/Specifications/
However, with Xcode 3, the old style files no longer work. Instead,
Xcode 3.0 uses .xclangspec files, that have a very different format -
obviously to give more power to syntax highlighting etc. You can see
your existing languages here on Leopard:
/Developer/Library/PrivateFrameworks/XcodeEdit.framework/Versions/A/
Resources/
I wanted to put something together for syntax highlighting of Groovy
code, based on Java syntax. But I can't figure out how you add new
languages, or how to get them picked up by Xcode.
If anyone has any pointers, I'd be grateful.
Jamie
PS. Apologies if this has been discussed before. I did a search in
the mailing list and couldn't find anything.
