BCGPEdit (BCGSoft Professional Editor) (*) is an MFC extension library that allows you to incorporate an advanced edit control into any MFC-based application. It has the following features:
-
Syntax highlighting
BCGPEdit supports two levels of highly customizable syntax highlighting. First of all, you can create a syntax file (in XML format) to support any programming language. Secondly, we offer a set of virtual functions. You can override these functions and incorporate into edit control any logic you want:
-
Color Blocks
You can define various color blocks and implement single-line and multi-line comments.
-
Support for collapsible nodes (outlining)
The out of the box outline parser recognizes C++ files and can be customized either programmatically or using an external XML file:
-
IntelliSense
We provide an advanced support for IntelliSense®. Using this support you can create editors similar to one supplied with Microsoft® VC++ or Visual Basic® IDE:
-
Markers
There is a built-in support for bookmarks and breakpoints. In addition, you can create various types of custom markers. There is an ability to create single line and multi-line static and dynamic color blocks:

Drag&Drop support

Export to HTML and RTF.
You can easily export the editor content to HTML or RTF formats. Our feature tour examples are generated using this method.
