Release 5.5.6 (https://www.scintilla.org/scintilla556.zip) Released 2 April 2025. * Disallow changing case of protected text. Bug #2463. * Return enumeration type from MarkerSymbolDefined to match MarkerDefine. Bug #2469. * On Win32, use DirectWrite for autocompletion lists when DirectWrite chosen for document text. * On Win32, optimize case-insensitive DBCS search to be around 5 times faster by using 64K memory to cache folding data for each DBCS code page used. * On Win32, fix a crash with bidirectional text. * When using Visual C++ through nmake, fix building for ARM64. Feature #1546. * On Qt, draw clipped UTF-8 text correctly. Bug #2464. * On Qt, avoid a dwell start when the mouse is moved outside the Scintilla widget. Bug #2466. * On Qt, autoCompleteSelection converts from local encoding when not in Unicode mode. Bug #2465. Release 5.4.4 (https://www.scintilla.org/lexilla544.zip) Released 2 April 2025. * Fix building for ARM64. Pull request #308. Close #16373
README for building of Scintilla, Lexilla, and SciTE
Scintilla and Lexilla can be built by themselves.
To build SciTE, Scintilla and Lexilla should first be built.
See lexilla/README for information on building Lexilla.
*** GTK+/Linux version ***
You must first have GTK+ 2.24 or later and GCC (7.1 or better) installed.
Clang may be used by adding CLANG=1 to the make command line.
Other C++ compilers may work but may require tweaking the make file.
Either GTK+ 2.x or 3.x may be used with 2.x the default and 3.x
chosen with the make argument GTK3=1.
To build Scintilla, use the makefile located in the scintilla/gtk directory
cd scintilla/gtk
make
cd ../..
To build and install SciTE, use the makefile located in the scite/gtk directory
cd scite/gtk
make
sudo make install
This installs SciTE into $prefix/bin. The value of $prefix is determined from
the location of Gnome if it is installed. This is usually /usr if installed
with Linux or /usr/local if built from source. If Gnome is not installed
/usr/bin is used as the prefix. The prefix can be overridden on the command
line like "make prefix=/opt" but the same value should be used for both make
and make install as this location is compiled into the executable. The global
properties file is installed at $prefix/share/scite/SciTEGlobal.properties.
The language specific properties files are also installed into this directory.
To remove SciTE
sudo make uninstall
To clean the object files which may be needed to change $prefix
make clean
The current make file supports static and dynamic linking between SciTE, Scintilla, and Lexilla.
*** Windows version ***
A C++ 17 compiler is required.
Visual Studio 2019 is the development system used for most development
although Mingw-w64 9.2 is also supported.
To build Scintilla, make in the scintilla/win32 directory
cd scintilla\win32
GCC: mingw32-make
Visual C++: nmake -f scintilla.mak
cd ..\..
To build SciTE, use the makefiles located in the scite/win32 directory
cd scite\win32
GCC: mingw32-make
Visual C++: nmake -f scite.mak
An executable SciTE will now be in scite/bin.
*** GTK+/Windows version ***
Mingw-w64 is known to work. Other compilers will probably not work.
Only Scintilla will build with GTK+ on Windows. SciTE will not work.
Make builds both a static library version of Scintilla with lexers (scintilla.a) and
a shared library without lexers (libscintilla.so or libscintilla.dll).
To build Scintilla, make in the scintilla/gtk directory
cd scintilla\gtk
mingw32-make
*** macOS Cocoa version ***
Xcode 9.2 or later may be used to build Scintilla on macOS.
There is no open source version of SciTE for macOS but there is a commercial
version available through the App Store.
To build Scintilla, run xcodebuild in the scintilla/cocoa/ScintillaFramework or
scintilla/cocoa/Scintilla directory
cd cocoa/Scintilla
xcodebuild
*** Qt version ***
See the qt/README file to build Scintilla with Qt.
