The language property of the JadeTextEdit control contains the programming language used in the text editor and selects the lexical analyzer that is used to calculate text styling and fold points.
The lexical analyzers for all currently Scintilla-supported languages are built into the JadeTextEdit control. However, only a small number of the most-common languages have the necessary text styles and keywords included in the global settings table.
The fully supported languages are represented by the JadeTextEdit class constants listed in the following table.
| Constant | Value | Constant | Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| SCLEX_BASH | 62 | SCLEX_BATCH | 12 |
| SCLEX_CONF | 17 | SCLEX_CPP | 3 |
| SCLEX_CSS | 38 | SCLEX_DIFF | 16 |
| SCLEX_HTML | 4 | SCLEX_JADE | 65 |
| SCLEX_JAVA | 65539 | SCLEX_JAVASCRIPT | 131075 |
| SCLEX_MAKEFILE | 11 | SCLEX_PERL | 6 |
| SCLEX_PROPERTIES | 9 | SCLEX_PS | 42 |
| SCLEX_PYTHON | 2 | SCLEX_TEXT | 1 (the default) |
| SCLEX_VB | 8 | SCLEX_VBSCRIPT | 28 |
| SCLEX_XML | 5 |
