QCodeEdit is a project aiming at the creation of a flexible and powerful text editing framework for Qt4. It has started as a sub-project of Edyuk, copyright (c) Luc Bruant, a free and open source IDE but I (fullmetalcoder) decided to release it as a library as soon as it looked usable because I am convinced that a fair number of people are looking for such a framework.
QCodeEdit depends on Qt 4, copyright (c) Trolltech AS , which can be downloaded at : ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/sources
Note : QCodeEdit as only be tested with Qt 4.1 but should work with newer versions and may work with older ones.
More information about Qt and Trolltech : http://www.trolltech.com
QCodeEdit is still in an early beta state but it is already usable and decently efficient. An example is provided and the sources are fully documented.
Have fun!!! :)
>>> Building :
$ qmake
$ make
$ make install
Notes :
- "make install" needs admin privileges, change this line depending on your system...
- YES ! QCodeEdit uses advanced qmake features to create an "install" target
- YES ! Once installed, QCodeEdit can be used as any other Qt module :
"CONFIG += qcodeedit" does the job...
>>> Testing :
A very basic example is provided which opend a list of files passed as parameters and try to highlight them according to their file extension. Only one language definition is given :
- C++ (with Doxygen support)
Feel free to add other ;)
$ example/example [files]
>>> Documentation [needs Doxygen : http://www.doxygen.org]:
$ doxygen
Note : This will create the documentation in the doc folder. Just open doc/html/index.html
