Objective Edit : Chapter 1 Introduction to Objective Edit : Customization Options
Customization Options
Different types of customization are possible in Objective Edit:
Changing .ini file—If you want to implement colorizing for a new language, change the .ini file.
Subclassing—To add new features, you can derive from almost all main classes. (Normally you will not derive from SECEditLangConfig.)
Source Code Modification—Additional flexibility is possible if you venture to change the source code directly. Keep in mind, however, that modifying source code is not supported by Rogue Wave because it may lead to problems if you later want to upgrade to newer versions of Objective Edit.
NOTE >> To see how new features can be added, see the ReadMe files for Objective Edit samples. In addition, Chapter 6, “Customization,” discusses several customization topics in detail.
