Walkthrough: Displaying Matching Braces

You can implement language-based features such as brace matching by defining the braces you want to match, and then adding a text marker tag to the matching braces when the caret is on one of the braces. You can define braces in the context of a language, or you can define your own file name extension and content type and apply the tags to just that type, or you can apply the tags to an existing content type (such as "text"). The following walkthrough shows how to apply brace matching tags to the "text" content type.

Prerequisites

To complete this walkthrough, you must install the Visual Studio 2010 SDK.

注意

For more information about the Visual Studio SDK, see Visual Studio Integration SDK. To find out how to download the Visual Studio SDK, see Visual Studio Extensibility Developer Center on the MSDN Web site.

Creating a Managed Extensibility Framework (MEF) Project

To create a MEF project

  1. Create an Editor Classifier project. Name the solution BraceMatchingTest.

  2. Open the source.extension.vsixmanifest file in the VSIX Manifest Editor.

  3. Make sure that the Content heading contains a MEF Component content type and that the Path is set to BraceMatchingTest.dll.

  4. Save and close Source.extension.vsixmanifest.

  5. Delete the existing class files.

Implementing a Brace Matching Tagger

To get a brace highlighting effect that resembles the one that is used in Visual Studio, you can implement a tagger of type TextMarkerTag. The following code shows how to define the tagger for brace pairs at any level of nesting. In this example, the brace pairs []. [], and {} are defined in the tagger constructor, but in a full language implementation the relevant brace pairs would be defined in the language specification.

To implement a brace matching tagger

  1. Add a class file and name it BraceMatching.

  2. Import the following namespaces.

    Imports System.ComponentModel.Composition
    Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text
    Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Editor
    Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Tagging
    Imports Microsoft.VisualStudio.Utilities
    
    using System;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.ComponentModel.Composition;
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text;
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Editor;
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Tagging;
    using Microsoft.VisualStudio.Utilities;
    
  3. Define a class BraceMatchingTagger that inherits from ITagger<T> of type TextMarkerTag.

    Friend Class BraceMatchingTagger
        Implements ITagger(Of TextMarkerTag)
    
    internal class BraceMatchingTagger : ITagger<TextMarkerTag>
    
  4. Add properties for the text view, the source buffer, and the current snapshot point, and also a set of brace pairs.

    Private _View As ITextView
    Private Property View() As ITextView
        Get
            Return _View
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As ITextView)
            _View = value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private _SourceBuffer As ITextBuffer
    Private Property SourceBuffer() As ITextBuffer
        Get
            Return _SourceBuffer
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As ITextBuffer)
            _SourceBuffer = value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private _CurrentChar As System.Nullable(Of SnapshotPoint)
    Private Property CurrentChar() As System.Nullable(Of SnapshotPoint)
        Get
            Return _CurrentChar
        End Get
        Set(ByVal value As System.Nullable(Of SnapshotPoint))
            _CurrentChar = value
        End Set
    End Property
    Private m_braceList As Dictionary(Of Char, Char)
    
    ITextView View { get; set; }
    ITextBuffer SourceBuffer { get; set; }
    SnapshotPoint? CurrentChar { get; set; }
    private Dictionary<char, char> m_braceList;
    
  5. In the tagger constructor, set the properties and subscribe to the view change events PositionChanged and LayoutChanged. In this example, for illustrative purposes, the matching pairs are also defined in the constructor.

    Friend Sub New(ByVal view As ITextView, ByVal sourceBuffer As ITextBuffer)
        'here the keys are the open braces, and the values are the close braces
        m_braceList = New Dictionary(Of Char, Char)()
        m_braceList.Add("{"c, "}"c)
        m_braceList.Add("["c, "]"c)
        m_braceList.Add("("c, ")"c)
        Me.View = view
        Me.SourceBuffer = sourceBuffer
        Me.CurrentChar = Nothing
    
        AddHandler Me.View.Caret.PositionChanged, AddressOf Me.CaretPositionChanged
        AddHandler Me.View.LayoutChanged, AddressOf Me.ViewLayoutChanged
    End Sub
    
    internal BraceMatchingTagger(ITextView view, ITextBuffer sourceBuffer)
    {
        //here the keys are the open braces, and the values are the close braces
        m_braceList = new Dictionary<char, char>();
        m_braceList.Add('{', '}');
        m_braceList.Add('[', ']');
        m_braceList.Add('(', ')');
        this.View = view;
        this.SourceBuffer = sourceBuffer;
        this.CurrentChar = null;
    
        this.View.Caret.PositionChanged += CaretPositionChanged;
        this.View.LayoutChanged += ViewLayoutChanged;
    }
    
  6. As part of the ITagger<T> implementation, declare a TagsChanged event.

    Public Event TagsChanged As EventHandler(Of SnapshotSpanEventArgs) _
        Implements ITagger(Of TextMarkerTag).TagsChanged
    
    public event EventHandler<SnapshotSpanEventArgs> TagsChanged;
    
  7. The event handlers update the current caret position of the CurrentChar property and raise the TagsChanged event.

    Private Sub ViewLayoutChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As TextViewLayoutChangedEventArgs)
        If e.NewSnapshot IsNot e.OldSnapshot Then
            'make sure that there has really been a change
            UpdateAtCaretPosition(View.Caret.Position)
        End If
    End Sub
    
    Private Sub CaretPositionChanged(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As CaretPositionChangedEventArgs)
        UpdateAtCaretPosition(e.NewPosition)
    End Sub
    
    Private Sub UpdateAtCaretPosition(ByVal caretPosition As CaretPosition)
        CurrentChar = caretPosition.Point.GetPoint(SourceBuffer, caretPosition.Affinity)
    
        If Not CurrentChar.HasValue Then
            Exit Sub
        End If
    
        RaiseEvent TagsChanged(Me, New SnapshotSpanEventArgs(New SnapshotSpan(SourceBuffer.CurrentSnapshot, 0, SourceBuffer.CurrentSnapshot.Length)))
    End Sub
    
    void ViewLayoutChanged(object sender, TextViewLayoutChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.NewSnapshot != e.OldSnapshot) //make sure that there has really been a change
        {
            UpdateAtCaretPosition(View.Caret.Position);
        }
    }
    
    void CaretPositionChanged(object sender, CaretPositionChangedEventArgs e)
    {
        UpdateAtCaretPosition(e.NewPosition);
    }
    void UpdateAtCaretPosition(CaretPosition caretPosition)
    {
        CurrentChar = caretPosition.Point.GetPoint(SourceBuffer, caretPosition.Affinity);
    
        if (!CurrentChar.HasValue)
            return;
    
        var tempEvent = TagsChanged;
        if (tempEvent != null)
            tempEvent(this, new SnapshotSpanEventArgs(new SnapshotSpan(SourceBuffer.CurrentSnapshot, 0,
                SourceBuffer.CurrentSnapshot.Length)));
    }
    
  8. Implement the GetTags method to match braces either when the current character is an open brace or when the previous character is a close brace, as in Visual Studio. When the match is found, this method instantiates two tags, one for the open brace and one for the close brace.

    Public Function GetTags(ByVal spans As NormalizedSnapshotSpanCollection) As IEnumerable(Of ITagSpan(Of TextMarkerTag)) Implements ITagger(Of Microsoft.VisualStudio.Text.Tagging.TextMarkerTag).GetTags
        If spans.Count = 0 Then
            'there is no content in the buffer
            Exit Function
        End If
    
        'don't do anything if the current SnapshotPoint is not initialized or at the end of the buffer
        If Not CurrentChar.HasValue OrElse CurrentChar.Value.Position >= CurrentChar.Value.Snapshot.Length Then
            Exit Function
        End If
    
        'hold on to a snapshot of the current character
        Dim currentChar__1 As SnapshotPoint = CurrentChar.Value
    
        'if the requested snapshot isn't the same as the one the brace is on, translate our spans to the expected snapshot
        If spans(0).Snapshot IsNot currentChar__1.Snapshot Then
            currentChar__1 = currentChar__1.TranslateTo(spans(0).Snapshot, PointTrackingMode.Positive)
        End If
    
        'get the current char and the previous char
        Dim currentText As Char = currentChar__1.GetChar()
        Dim lastChar As SnapshotPoint = If(CInt(currentChar__1) = 0, currentChar__1, currentChar__1 - 1)
        'if currentChar is 0 (beginning of buffer), don't move it back
        Dim lastText As Char = lastChar.GetChar()
        Dim pairSpan As New SnapshotSpan()
    
        If m_braceList.ContainsKey(currentText) Then
            'the key is the open brace
            Dim closeChar As Char
            m_braceList.TryGetValue(currentText, closeChar)
            If BraceMatchingTagger.FindMatchingCloseChar(currentChar__1, currentText, closeChar, View.TextViewLines.Count, pairSpan) = True Then
                Exit Function
            End If
        ElseIf m_braceList.ContainsValue(lastText) Then
            'the value is the close brace, which is the *previous* character 
            Dim open = From n In m_braceList _
                Where n.Value.Equals(lastText) _
                Select n.Key
            If BraceMatchingTagger.FindMatchingOpenChar(lastChar, CChar(open.ElementAt(0)), lastText, View.TextViewLines.Count, pairSpan) = True Then
                Exit Function
            End If
        End If
    End Function
    
    public IEnumerable<ITagSpan<TextMarkerTag>> GetTags(NormalizedSnapshotSpanCollection spans)
    {
        if (spans.Count == 0)   //there is no content in the buffer
            yield break;
    
        //don't do anything if the current SnapshotPoint is not initialized or at the end of the buffer
        if (!CurrentChar.HasValue || CurrentChar.Value.Position >= CurrentChar.Value.Snapshot.Length)
            yield break;
    
        //hold on to a snapshot of the current character
        SnapshotPoint currentChar = CurrentChar.Value;
    
        //if the requested snapshot isn't the same as the one the brace is on, translate our spans to the expected snapshot
        if (spans[0].Snapshot != currentChar.Snapshot)
        {
            currentChar = currentChar.TranslateTo(spans[0].Snapshot, PointTrackingMode.Positive);
        }
    
        //get the current char and the previous char
        char currentText = currentChar.GetChar();
        SnapshotPoint lastChar = currentChar == 0 ? currentChar : currentChar - 1; //if currentChar is 0 (beginning of buffer), don't move it back
        char lastText = lastChar.GetChar();
        SnapshotSpan pairSpan = new SnapshotSpan();
    
        if (m_braceList.ContainsKey(currentText))   //the key is the open brace
        {
            char closeChar;
            m_braceList.TryGetValue(currentText, out closeChar);
            if (BraceMatchingTagger.FindMatchingCloseChar(currentChar, currentText, closeChar, View.TextViewLines.Count, out pairSpan) == true)
            {
                yield return new TagSpan<TextMarkerTag>(new SnapshotSpan(currentChar, 1), new TextMarkerTag("blue"));
                yield return new TagSpan<TextMarkerTag>(pairSpan, new TextMarkerTag("blue"));
            }
        }
        else if (m_braceList.ContainsValue(lastText))    //the value is the close brace, which is the *previous* character 
        {
            var open = from n in m_braceList
                       where n.Value.Equals(lastText)
                       select n.Key;
            if (BraceMatchingTagger.FindMatchingOpenChar(lastChar, (char)open.ElementAt<char>(0), lastText, View.TextViewLines.Count, out pairSpan) == true)
            {
                yield return new TagSpan<TextMarkerTag>(new SnapshotSpan(lastChar, 1), new TextMarkerTag("blue"));
                yield return new TagSpan<TextMarkerTag>(pairSpan, new TextMarkerTag("blue"));
            }
        }
    }
    
  9. The following private methods find the matching brace at any level of nesting. The first method finds the close character that matches the open character:

    Private Shared Function FindMatchingCloseChar(ByVal startPoint As SnapshotPoint, ByVal open As Char, ByVal close As Char, ByVal maxLines As Integer, ByRef pairSpan As SnapshotSpan) As Boolean
        pairSpan = New SnapshotSpan(startPoint.Snapshot, 1, 1)
        Dim line As ITextSnapshotLine = startPoint.GetContainingLine()
        Dim lineText As String = line.GetText()
        Dim lineNumber As Integer = line.LineNumber
        Dim offset As Integer = startPoint.Position - line.Start.Position + 1
    
        Dim stopLineNumber As Integer = startPoint.Snapshot.LineCount - 1

                        'found the matching close
                        pairSpan = New SnapshotSpan(startPoint.Snapshot, line.Start + offset, 1)
                        Return True
                    End If
                ElseIf currentChar = open Then
                    ' this is another open
                    openCount += 1
                End If

            End While
    
            'move on to the next line
            If System.Threading.Interlocked.Increment(lineNumber) > stopLineNumber Then
                Exit While
            End If
    
            line = line.Snapshot.GetLineFromLineNumber(lineNumber)
            lineText = line.GetText()
            offset = 0
        End While
    
        Return False
    End Function
    
    private static bool FindMatchingCloseChar(SnapshotPoint startPoint, char open, char close, int maxLines, out SnapshotSpan pairSpan)
    {
        pairSpan = new SnapshotSpan(startPoint.Snapshot, 1, 1);
        ITextSnapshotLine line = startPoint.GetContainingLine();
        string lineText = line.GetText();
        int lineNumber = line.LineNumber;
        int offset = startPoint.Position - line.Start.Position + 1;

        while (true)
        {
            //walk the entire line
            while (offset < line.Length)
            {
                char currentChar = lineText[offset];
                if (currentChar == close) //found the close character

        }
    
        return false;
    }
    
  10. The following helper method finds the open character that matches a close character:

    Private Shared Function FindMatchingOpenChar(ByVal startPoint As SnapshotPoint, ByVal open As Char, ByVal close As Char, ByVal maxLines As Integer, ByRef pairSpan As SnapshotSpan) As Boolean

Implementing a Brace Matching Tagger Provider

In addition to implementing a tagger, you must also implement and export a tagger provider. In this case, the content type of the provider is "text". This means that brace matching will appear in all types of text files, but a fuller implementation would apply brace matching only to a specific content type.

To implement a brace matching tagger provider

  1. Declare a tagger provider that inherits from IViewTaggerProvider, name it BraceMatchingTaggerProvider, and export it with a ContentTypeAttribute of "text" and a TagTypeAttribute of TextMarkerTag.

    <Export(GetType(IViewTaggerProvider))> _
    <ContentType("text")> _
    <TagType(GetType(TextMarkerTag))> _
    Friend Class BraceMatchingTaggerProvider
        Implements IViewTaggerProvider
    
    [Export(typeof(IViewTaggerProvider))]
    [ContentType("text")]
    [TagType(typeof(TextMarkerTag))]
    internal class BraceMatchingTaggerProvider : IViewTaggerProvider
    
  2. Implement the CreateTagger<T> method to instantiate a BraceMatchingTagger.

    Public Function CreateTagger(Of T As ITag)(ByVal textView As ITextView, ByVal buffer As ITextBuffer) As ITagger(Of T) Implements IViewTaggerProvider.CreateTagger
        If textView Is Nothing Then
            Return Nothing
        End If
    
        'provide highlighting only on the top-level buffer
        If textView.TextBuffer IsNot buffer Then
            Return Nothing
        End If
    
        Return TryCast(New BraceMatchingTagger(textView, buffer), ITagger(Of T))
    End Function
    
    public ITagger<T> CreateTagger<T>(ITextView textView, ITextBuffer buffer) where T : ITag
    {
        if (textView == null)
            return null;
    
        //provide highlighting only on the top-level buffer
        if (textView.TextBuffer != buffer)
            return null;
    
        return new BraceMatchingTagger(textView, buffer) as ITagger<T>;
    }
    

Building and Testing the Code

To test this code, build the BraceMatchingTest solution and run it in the experimental instance.

To build and test BraceMatchingTest solution

  1. Build the solution.

  2. When you run this project in the debugger, a second instance of Visual Studio is instantiated.

  3. Create a text file and type some text that includes matching braces.

    hello {
    goodbye}
    
    {}
    
    {hello}
    
  4. When you position the caret before an open brace, both that brace and the matching close brace should be highlighted. When you position the cursor just after the close brace, both that brace and the matching open brace should be highlighted.
