TRichView.com

I'm looking for a new component for my product, CSE HTML Validator Professional. It is mostly an HTML source code editor, not a WYSIWYG editor. It also has syntax highlighting for several languages, including PHP, CSS, C++, and more.

Is TRichView suitable for such a use? It looks like it would not be the optimal choice for a text/programmer's editor component, but I'd like to know for sure.

Thanks,
Albert

Honestly, TRichViewEdit is not a best choice for code editor. It was not designed for that.

Take a look at SynEdit, which is available through SourceForge.

Thanks... but SynEdit looks dead. No updates for two years. Also, no maintainer for C++Builder. So I'm still looking for the best code editing component for C++Builder.

Thanks!

I don't think SynEdit is dead,
but maybe it's (almost) "finished"
The last stable build is from october 2005.

There's a project derived form SynEdit,
to implement code folding: Mystix

And if that's not enough you should take a look at Scintilla.
