SciTE解决Lua编译器问题

Question

After install SciTE IDE for lua why Compile,Build and run option are disabled.

What to do,how to enable those portions

Note: Installed LuaForWindows_v5.1.4-46.exe on my PC(OS=win-8.1 and 64 bit)

Answer 1

You've opened the .properties type of file, for which those actions are not defined.

Try opening some other file, for eg. .py , .lua or .c and check whether they are still disabled. If so, open the language specific .properties file and edit the following keys accordingly:

command.compile.filepattern=
command.build.filepattern=
command.go.filepattern=

Answer 2

Add these lines to your "lua.properties" file:

command.go.*.lua=C:\PathToLua\lua.exe "$(FileNameExt)" $(1) $(2) $(3) $(4)
command.compile.*.lua=C:\PathToLua\luac.exe -s -o "$(FileName).luac" "$(FileNameExt)"
# ===  or if you prefer LuaJIT  ===
#command.go.*.lua=C:\PathToLuaJIT\luajit.exe -eio.stdout:setvbuf'no' "$(FileNameExt)" $(1) $(2) $(3) $(4)
#command.compile.*.lua=C:\PathToLuaJIT\luajit.exe -b "$(FileNameExt)" "$(FileName).luac"

calltip.lua.word.characters=.:$(word.chars.lua)
calltip.lua.end.definition=)
api.$(file.patterns.lua)=$(SciteDefaultHome)\lua5.api;$(SciteDefaultHome)\SciTELua.api

Use menu View -> Parameters to set values for $(1)...$(4)

Calltip files you need:

• lua5.api (general Lua functions)
• SciTELua.api (for accessing SciTE objects)
