Because installing all the elements can be quite tricky, it would be good to have a proper install script. Even a simple batch file to perform the file copies.

Keywords don't highlight when they are butted up against a semi colon

Make all sources (from, resident, inline, etc) a class with the action (load, concatenate load, etc) a function within it.

Identify unnamed tables

Add support for Direct Query statements

The ORDER BY keyword does not get highlighted correctly

Hi,
In my NotePad++, the QlikView language definition (v2.6) does not highlight the corresponding round bracket (so if I'm closing a function, I do not see what is the opening round bracket as it is not highlighted).
I fixed this by adding ')' just after '(' in the settings Language > Define your language > QlikView > Operators and delimiters > Operators 1 > "> < = ( + - * / <= >= <> & , ;". So it becomes "> < = ( ) + - * / <= >= <> & , ;".
Is this the correct solution and if so, can you add it to the code?

I notice that the certain steps in the instruction guide is different from the latest version of Notepad++. I tried to place the XML in a different location and it doesn't work. Is there an updated guide for it?

i have a NP++ installation via PortableApps, so there is no
%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++
Also i found none in the portable Apps bin folder.
Anybody knows where to copy this file?

It's my first post on GitHub so i hope i'm at the right place. Or should i file it against PortableApps?

IF statements don't code collapse. This has had to be disabled because Notepad++'s language engine can't differentiate between the IF statement and the if() function.

If changes are made to the Notepad++ language engine then this functionality will be added in the future.

No "Rank()" function in Qlikview.xml

Hi Matt, thanks for sharing this. I always do one tweak: add a closing parenthesis to the "Operators 1" textbox, so that matching parenthesis are highlighted. Not sure if this breaks something, but without this Notepad++ does not highlight matching parenthesis.

It seems that qlikview.xml is a copy of qlikview-lang-def.xml, hence autocompletion is not working. After overwriting qlikview.xml by the one of version 2.5 autocompletion works.

Add support for QlikView Components library to ensure correct highlighting of sub routines and functions.

Exit Script keywords have been defined together. It doesn't show a suggestion for Script after writing Exit.
Also for below two statements:
Exit Script;
Exit Script ;
The first one is shown in black while second one is blue, the only difference between above is statements is a space between 't' and ';' .

Hello,

I found another functionList.xml (61 KB size) in "%UserProfile%\AppData\Roaming\Notepad++" during installation. So I can't perform step 5 of installation routine.
What should i do in this case?

Thank you

Hello.
Auto-completion function does not work for me. When I start enter code drop down list do not appear.
Highlighting works correctly.
