Implement toolbar Comment/Uncomment actions

Hi,
    I have created and registered a new File Type inside Netbeans 11.
However the comment/uncomment buttons in the editor toolbar do not do
anything (as expected). How do I implement these actions, do I need to also
create an EditorKit, or is that deprecated?

Regards
Ian.

Great. What’s the language you’re providing support for?

Solved it. FYI. I had been following the tutorial at
https://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/nbm-javacc-lexer.html and the
tutorial code doesn't override the getCommentHandler() method of the
LanguageRegistration class which extended DefaultLanguageConfig. Adding a
suitable CommentHandler.DefaultCommentHandler fixed the issue.
