Question about auto Case correction feature

[dige]

Hi guys,

is there a possibility to deactivate the case correction in the editor section by section?
I would like to use this auto-correction and not deactivate it globally.

But I absolutely need the lower case for the following structure, as this is adopted by InsertJSONStructure().

What else can I do, that "data._data" will kept lower case?

Code: Select all

Structure _data
  url.s
EndStructure

Structure _JSONResponse
  data._data
  success.b
  status.i
EndStructure

I think it is the variable name "data " which is also a keyword in PB.
Maybe you can store the structure in a include file and use a differnt extension (e.g. .txt)
You can edit filename.txt in the ide and no auto correction should disturb you.

Maybe with a macro of sorts

Code: Select all

Macro data_(ta=ta)
  da#ta
EndMacro

Structure _data
  url.s
EndStructure

Structure _JSONResponse
  data_._data
  success.b
  status.i
EndStructure

In code you will still use data_ as the fieldname everywhere, but the actual fieldname should be data then, when serialized/exported or something like that.

<edit>
Not sure it really works, you might have to add the braces when using the macro.

[#NULL]

This one works

Code: Select all

Macro data_(ta=ta)
  da#ta
EndMacro

Macro data_m
  data_()
EndMacro

Structure _data
  url.s
EndStructure

Structure _JSONResponse
  data_m._data
  success.b
  status.i
EndStructure

j._JSONResponse

If CreateJSON(0)
  InsertJSONStructure(JSONValue(0), @j, _JSONResponse)
  Debug ComposeJSON(0, #PB_JSON_PrettyPrint)
EndIf

; {
;   "status" : 0,
;   "success": 0,
;   "data"   : {
;       "url": ""
;     }
; }

Your issue is similar to this.
If the JSON data is only used within your program, the #PB_JSON_NoCase flag is fine.
For example, CreateJSON(#JSON, #PB_JSON_NoCase) and ParseJSON(#JSON, Input$ , #PB_JSON_NoCase).
However, if you need to interact with other case-sensitive programs, the macro is the only way to go.

a feature request:
The case correction feature should not be applied to field strings between 'Structure' and 'EndStructure'. (Keywords bolding and coloring as well.)

Ok ... solution at time

Add 'data' to Preferences -> Editor -> Coloring -> Custom keywords

Code: Select all

Structure _data
  url.s
EndStructure

Structure _JSONResponse
  data._data
  success.b
  status.i
EndStructure

DataSection
  data.i 100
EndDataSection

Define json._JSONResponse

If CreateJSON(0)
  InsertJSONStructure(JSONValue(0), @json, _JSONResponse)
  Debug ComposeJSON(0, #PB_JSON_PrettyPrint)
EndIf

Add 'data' to Preferences -> Editor -> Coloring -> Custom keywords

But:

not deactivate it globally
