The editor performs real-time syntax checking and provides annotations
describing the errors. If an error is found, a warning icon (
) is displayed. To see the annotation
describing the error, hover your mouse over the icon. The maximum
number of errors reported is 200.
You can customize the appearance of text containing syntax errors.
For example, instead of a yellow squiggly line under a warning you
can display syntax errors with red highlighting or a green dashed
box. To customize, open the Annotation preference
page and select
Warnings in
the list.
To turn off real-time syntax checking, select Disable syntax parser on the Real-Time Syntax Checking preference page. To enable or disable SQL annotations, use the EXEC SQL statements preference page.
