Elements
CharDefault
Default character type, representing plain text.CharText
Alternative for CharDefault.CharKeyword
Represents a reserved keyword (for example, in C++: for, if, or while).CharIdentifier
Represents a user-defined name for a method, variable, class, or namespace.CharString
Represents a double-quoted string.CharLiteral

Represents a delimiter, a separator of some form. For example, the semicolon at the end of a C++ statement.CharEmbedded
Represents an embedded token that is to be treated like a comment but may have different properties (such as a property embedded in the source).CharWhiteSpace
Represents a sequence of white space, typically space, tab, and/or newlines.CharLineComment
Represents a line comment, a comment that starts at some point and stops at the end of the line.CharComment
Represents a block comment, a comment that starts at some point and ends at some other point.CharDefaultLast

Remarks
The CharClass value is used to determine the word extent and search ranges. The color class (see ColorClass Enumeration) normally coincides with the CharClass values, but is not required to. The primary difference is that the CharClass value is fixed and color classes can be customized, which allows the Babel package to use the CharClass information to implement correct navigation and search functionality.
These values are specified for each character on a line in the IColorSink::Colorize Method.
