xml syntax highlighting in Silverlight

Artikel
12/09/2009

Several years back I posted a XML tokenizer for syntax highlighting. At the time I didn't post a complete app, since it was part of a larger project; if someone recently asked me for a little more context for the tokenizer so I put together a quickie Silverlight project showing how to use the tokenizer for syntax highlighting:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Net;
using System.Windows;
using System.Windows.Controls;
using System.Windows.Documents;
using System.Windows.Input;
using System.Windows.Media;
using System.Windows.Media.Animation;
using System.Windows.Shapes;

namespace XmlNotepad {
    public partial class MainPage : UserControl {
        public MainPage() {
            InitializeComponent();
            box.TextChanged += new TextChangedEventHandler(box_TextChanged);
        }

        // for xaml
        private static Color ColorForToken(XmlToken token, string tokenText) {
            Color color = Colors.Black;
            switch (token.Kind) {
                case XmlTokenKind.Open:
                case XmlTokenKind.OpenClose:
                case XmlTokenKind.Close:
                case XmlTokenKind.SelfClose:
                case XmlTokenKind.CommentBegin:
                case XmlTokenKind.CommentEnd:
                case XmlTokenKind.CDataBegin:
                case XmlTokenKind.CDataEnd:
                case XmlTokenKind.Equals:
                case XmlTokenKind.OpenProcessingInstruction:
                case XmlTokenKind.CloseProcessingInstruction:
                case XmlTokenKind.AttributeValue:
                    color = Colors.Blue;
                    break;
                case XmlTokenKind.ElementName:
                    color = Colors.Brown;
                    break;
                case XmlTokenKind.TextContent:
                    color = Colors.Black;
                    break;
                case XmlTokenKind.AttributeName:
                case XmlTokenKind.Entity:
                    color = Colors.Red;
                    break;
                case XmlTokenKind.CommentText:
                    color = Colors.Green;
                    break;
            }

return color;
}

        void box_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e) {
            block.Inlines.Clear();
            XmlTokenizer tokenizer = new XmlTokenizer();
            XmlTokenizerMode mode = XmlTokenizerMode.OutsideElement;
            string xml = box.Text;

            List<XmlToken> tokens = tokenizer.Tokenize(xml, ref mode);
            List<string> tokenTexts = new List<string>(tokens.Count);
            List<Color> colors = new List<Color>(tokens.Count);
            int position = 0;
            foreach (XmlToken token in tokens) {
                string tokenText = xml.Substring(position, token.Length);
                tokenTexts.Add(tokenText);
                Color color = ColorForToken(token, tokenText);
                colors.Add(color);
                position += token.Length;
            }
            for (int i = 0; i < tokens.Count; i++) {
                Run run = new Run();
                run.Foreground = new SolidColorBrush(colors[i]);
                run.Text = tokenTexts[i];
                block.Inlines.Add(run);
            }

If you're doing an interactive editor, you'll want to fix a few straightforward bugs in the tokenizer for handling invalid XML. Enjoy!
