This is the reason why I have given the content in xml highlighter.One of the most common utilities you will encounter in Windows is Notepad. It appears personal blog does not have the luxury to attach file. Then follow the same old steps to import the new UDL into Notepad++ and see the difference. Wiki platform provider Atlassian does not know that ABAP does not have multi-line comments. Code following double quote across multiple lines is treated as comment. See this screenshot from SCN Wiki page using ABAP highlighting. Identifying the literals as literals, both for single quote and backticks.There is a special character in UDL to specify that. Line comment should work only when * is at beginning of line.Similar issue is totally ruining the experience of ABAP highlighter in New SCN Wiki platform. ABAP comments and literals always single-line. This is because the highlighter tried to search for next occurrence of single quote, and color the multiple lines in between as literal. Typing a single quote was disturbing the entire the look of entire code to follow.Code folding (the expand/collapse icon on left) is enabled for comments.

By comparing screenshots, you can see that the color scheme looks more like New ABAP Editor.The UDL file contents can be found at end of this post. I had previously covered the steps required to apply the ABAP UDL configuration in fresh installation of Notepad++.īy following those steps, we could get ABAP code to look like this:īy using the modified UDL file given in this post, you could get ABAP code to look like this: The modified UDL file might be useful for followers of ABAP Development space. I’ll soon try out similar thing in jEdit text editor. I have modified the UDL file to make code look more like New ABAP Editor. This is a follow-up to my previous blog ABAP Syntax Highlighting in Notepad++
