Hi Christian, The Eclipse Xtext project [1] might be of interest to you which provides facilities to create a full IDE like editor with syntax highlighting, (context sensitive) code completion. Though, it may not be well suited to the BaseX GUI as it is targeted at Eclipse/SWT.

Dear followers,

we are interested to get your opinion on the code completions that we’ve just added to the text editor of our BaseX GUI [1]. You are invited to propose templates that you are missing here!

Many of you would probably love to have context-based code completions (such as all functions in the current context, etc.). All I can say is that this is indeed planned for a future version of BaseX.

Beside that, we’ve just added an implementation of the upcoming EXPath Binary Module [2]. As usual, a new stable snapshot is available, which contains the new features [3].

Thanks all, Christian
