User Defined Language(UDL) file for Notepad++ to provide syntax highlighting and code folding for Cerner CCL (Discern Explorer)
- Incorporates as many keywords as possible using official documentation
- Keywords are broken out into more distinct groups for individual styling.
- Improved code folding (with exception of folding whole SELECT queries due to limitations of UDL 2.0)
- Requires Notepad++ 6.2 or greater (supporting UDL 2.0)
- Download the
ccl.xml
file - Open Notepad++
- Navigate to
Language -> Define your language...
, selectImport
and choose theccl.xml
file you downloaded. - Restart Notepad++ and the Language menu will show the newly added language option at the bottom.
- Open a CCL file of your choice.
Opening a CCL will with an extension of: .prg .ccl .inc .tst should automatically apply the CCL Language theme, or it can be manually selected through the Language menu.
The stylings can be modified to your own preferences without having to recreate the keyword lists or groups. I intentionally selected bold and distinguished color schemes for each grouping of like syntax.
