special characters in tokens

[Txomin Etxebarria]

I am using Essential Edit to edit a language where I have spaecial variables such as:
__$some_path_varname
but it is interpreted as three different tokens: '__', '$' and 'some_path_varname'.
I haven't found any way to get the whole word '__$some_path_varname' as a single token.
Is there any way I haven't seen?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

I am able to reproduce the issue. As a workaround, we can get the whole word that contains special characters like "_$" as provided in the following code snippet:

private void getWordToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
            string text = this.editControl1.GetLineText(this.editControl1.CurrentLine);
            string[] words = text.Split ( new char[] { ' ' } );
            foreach(string s in words)
            {
                string temp;
                if (s.Contains(";"))
                {
                    temp = s.Remove(s.Length - 1);
                }
                else
                {
                    temp = s;
                }
                if(temp.StartsWith("_$"))
                 MessageBox.Show(temp);
            }
}

Please let me know if any concerns.

Thank you for your answer,

The workaround you suggest is valid to replace code such as:

private void TextEditor_ContextChoiceOpen(IContextChoiceController controller)
{
IRenderedLexem dl = controller.Dropper;
IRenderedLexem lbd = controller.LexemBeforeDropper;
.....
}

but if you doble-click the word __$some_path_varname the whole word is not selected. Any way, if it is not possible I'll have to accept it.
