That depends on how you want to add bindints for instance variables. For evaluating expressions with instance variables, OCASTSemantic analyzer already knows how to lookup the variable binding from the OCInstanceScope (it does not work at the moment, because inspect (the requestor) is asked first, and it creates a binding on the fly). For syntax highlighting, the styler needs to know if a classOrMetaClass attribute is set, otherwise it does not create a compilation context that can lookup up with the correct instance scope. (see SHRBTextStyler>>#privateStyle: ) If you omit to create bindings on the fly for instance variables, you need to set the classOrMetaClass attribute but if you include the instance variable bindings and the GT inspector (the requestor in #lookupVar: ) is responsible for finding the correct var, it may work without setting the classOrMetaClass attribute - I don't know for sure. > > Cheers, > Doru > > > > > > > I can let you try to solve it by playing with the bindings ;) > > > > Thierry > > > > Esteban > > > > > > In the latest 5.0, in EyeInspector, it will correctly highlight bounds > > as a defined variable. > > > > Moreover, and the source of the first complaint, in GTInspector, > > inspecting bounds will give a nil answer instead of the morph bounds. > > Whereas EyeInspector will properly answer (0@0) corner: (50@40). > > > > Thierry > > > > Cheers, > > Doru > > > > > > By the way, would someone know how to force the styler to re-style a > > text?
