Issues with QSyntaxHighlighter (Or Regular Expressions?)
-
Well, so i've made my syntax highlighter with the regular expressions from the Qt site. (Did i say regular expressions don't want to be my friends?)
Whatever, it works fine. But i keep having those issues:

As you can see, single line comment works fine. (I haven't done multi-line. Seems a big more challenging.) But whatever, it has some "issues". (Which are strange!)
For example, i have some keywords like goto, break, new, they show fine, in the single line comment color. But what about if? It's showing on blue! Something is wrong there.
@ QStringList m_keywordList;
m_keywordList << "\bgoto\b" << "\bbreak\b" << "\bnew\b" << "\bif\b";
foreach(const QString &m_keyword, m_keywordList) {
m_highlightData.insert(m_keyword, m_keywordFormat);
}@Second issue, on #define. Yes, works fine. If you see the last quote after Hello, it's on the quotation color instead of the green text.
@ QStringList m_preprocessorList;
m_preprocessorList << "#define";
foreach(const QString &m_preprocessor, m_preprocessorList) {
m_highlightData.insert("" + m_preprocessor + "[^\n]*\b", m_preprocessorFormat);
}@Third issue. Here, we're looking at quotation format. Displays fine, except for the numbers. Different color.
@m_highlightData.insert("[0-9]", m_numberFormat);
m_highlightData.insert("".*"", m_quotesFormat);@Did i mention regular expressions doesn't like me? Well. What's the issue? I suppose the regular expressions, but why?
