Linking

The group-id and version have been adjusted to use my name space at Maven Central:

"de.sciss" % "syntaxpane" % v

The current version v is "1.3.0"

Building

JSyntaxPane builds with sbt 1.x. The source code is purely Java, so no Scala compilation is run. The project uses the sbt-jflex plugin v0.4.0, which in turn uses JFlex 1.7.0 to generate the lexer Java sources for the supported languages.

To build run sbt compile. To run a demo application, run sbt test:run. Alternatively, you can build and run the test with

sbt package test:package
java -cp target/syntaxpane-<version>.jar:target/syntaxpane-<version>-tests.jar de.sciss.syntaxpane.SyntaxTester
