I am working on improving an editor that already does many functions
like syntax coloring, outline, completion and code folding.
But one issue is that this language support a file inclusion mechanism
just like the C-type #include <includefile>
I want in the background to create a document that represents the fully
expanded version of my editor file, so that I can extend the outline,
code completion and link to include those included sections.
At first glance I thought that I could create a master document that
represents the fully expanded set, probably with each originating part
of the whole being part of its own slave document.
The user would then interact only with the slave document representing
the "main file", and the parsing for analysis and supporting functions
would be performed on the underlying master document.
But, I am realizing that the current ProjectionDocumentManager and its
ProjectionDocument seem to always assume that the textstore is
maintained and managed by the master document and not the other way
around. So a projection is an extract from a master, but a master is not
is not a composition from projections, except that that pattern is
probably supported by the ISlaveDocument interface.
As anybody done something similar? Modified ProjectionDocument to have
their text store, or anything else that I might be missing here.
Thanks
Alain
