I REALLY like having this capability to help sort out the gobbledygook. Had intermittent issues with this before on other Eclipse tools. Xpresso seems to be abnormally stubborn about this now. What gives? I understand scalability issues with large files...this doesn't seem to be the culprit as EVERYTHING only partially works.
Problem solved. My own fault of course.
How foolish of me to think that I could import an Eclipse based .epf Preference File, designed to be imported into an Eclipse based tool, and expect it to work. Especially after doing this from CodeWarrior to KDS, with no issues. Apparently I didn't read the memo buried somewhere?
All is much better now after blowing away the install and reinstalling and then setting my preferences manually.
Although I still get what appear to be trivial warnings caused by a fresh install, at least the Errors I was getting, are now gone and Syntax Coloring WORKS!
Is that .epf from the Eclipse Process Framework? I have not used that framework, but it looks the issue is more in the EPF (I assume you have that installed into your Eclipse).
The first warning about git: it seems to me that you don't have installed git (which would be fine).
The last one seems to come from something else you have installed (maybe the EPF plugin?).
So it seems somehow that the EPF plugin is causing problems. I admit that I have not used that plugin, but to me this seems to be the cause of your problems. I suggest you check your key bindings for CTRL+U here:
I hope this helps,

I assume this is about custom macro coloring?
Not sure what is different on your side (I'm using IDE 11.0.1), but for me that works well:
Maybe you have an Indexer issue, could you try to re-build the Indexer and disable heuristics (see Fixing the Eclipse Index | MCU on Eclipse ).
I hope this helps,

Yes, Macro's and everything else not coloring. I am also using IDE 11.0.1. I have even re-installed once again already.
Before trying the re-indexing rebuild, I did the following under preferences with no luck.
I then performed a index rebuild. No change.
I think of some interest though, is the warnings and errors I get right out of the box when simply starting Xpresso, shown here. This is initially what I was trying to resolve with a re-install. I have no clue if they are normal or unimportant.
The next item of interest is when I open a header file to see if any coloring has changed and the "Warning" that says "Error getting ScannerInfo: Unable to determine language for resource L/frdmkl25z_rtos_examples_freertos_hello/board/board.h"
This seems to indicate that it does not know what language is being used....and therefore I assume it doesn't know how to apply coloring? Is this the problem? How/where would it be corrected? Why would it not know from example code right out of the box?
By the way, I have CodeWarrior Eclipse and KDS installed and both seem to work OK.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks for your input.
