Find/Replace example

[fkonvick]

Hi,

I've seen some demo app in svn, but I'm not sure how to exactly use it with my RSyntaxTextArea... so far, I have just created a RSyntaxTextArea and put it in a JScrollPane. Is it possible to have the find/replace available in the pop-up menu (where I can see Select All, Copy, Paste and the like), and ideally also have Ctrl+F / Ctrl+H work?

Thanks,
Filip

Yes, this is possible. Canned Find and Replace dialogs are found in the RSTAUI project. Get that either from SourceForge or from Subversion. You can follow the demo application shipped with RSTAUI for a simple example of integrating the dialogs.

As for integrating it into the editor's popup menu, follow this example from the RSyntaxTextArea examples page. It shows how to add custom actions to the popup menu.

Good luck!

Robert,

Thanks a lot. The second example helped, it's very simple. And now even regex-style replace is working! Great!

Thanks,
Filip
