Syntax highlighters are often used when the user is +entering text in a specific format (for example, source code) and +help the user to read the text and identify syntax errors. +<p> To provide your own syntax highlighting for TQTextEdit, you must +subclass TQSyntaxHighlighter and reimplement <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>(). +<p> When you create an instance of your TQSyntaxHighlighter subclass, +pass it the TQTextEdit that you want the syntax highlighting to be +applied to. After this your highlightParagraph() function will be +called automatically whenever necessary. Use your +highlightParagraph() function to apply formatting (e.g. setting +the font and color) to the text that is passed to it. +<p>See also <a href="basic.html">Basic Widgets</a> and <a href="text.html">Text Related Classes</a>. + +<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> +<h3 class=fn><a name="TQSyntaxHighlighter"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::TQSyntaxHighlighter ( <a href="qtextedit.html">TQTextEdit</a> * textEdit ) +</h3> +Constructs the TQSyntaxHighlighter and installs it on <em>textEdit</em>. +<p> It is the caller's responsibility to delete the +TQSyntaxHighlighter when it is no longer needed. + +<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQSyntaxHighlighter"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::~TQSyntaxHighlighter ()<tt> [virtual]</tt> +</h3> +Destructor. Uninstalls this syntax highlighter from the <a href="#textEdit">textEdit</a>() + +<h3 class=fn>int <a name="currentParagraph"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::currentParagraph () const +</h3> +Returns the id of the paragraph which is highlighted, or -1 of no +paragraph is currently highlighted. +<p> Usually this function is called from within <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>(). + +<h3 class=fn>int <a name="highlightParagraph"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::highlightParagraph ( const <a href="qstring.html">TQString</a> & text, int endStateOfLastPara )<tt> [pure virtual]</tt> +</h3> + +<p> This function is called when necessary by the rich text engine, +i.e. on paragraphs which have changed. +<p> In your reimplementation you should parse the paragraph's <em>text</em> +and call <a href="#setFormat">setFormat</a>() as often as necessary to apply any font and +color changes that you retquire. Your function must return a value +which indicates the paragraph's end state: see below. +<p> Some syntaxes can have constructs that span paragraphs. For +example, a C++ syntax highlighter should be able to cope with +<tt>/</tt><tt>*...*</tt><tt>/</tt> comments that span paragraphs. To deal +with these cases it is necessary to know the end state of the +previous paragraph (e.g. "in comment"). +<p> If your syntax does not have paragraph spanning constructs, simply +ignore the <em>endStateOfLastPara</em> parameter and always return 0. +<p> Whenever <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>() is called it is passed a value for +<em>endStateOfLastPara</em>. For the very first paragraph this value is +always -2. For any other paragraph the value is the value returned +by the most recent highlightParagraph() call that applied to the +preceding paragraph. +<p> The value you return is up to you. We recommend only returning 0 +(to signify that this paragraph's syntax highlighting does not +affect the following paragraph), or a positive integer (to signify +that this paragraph has ended in the middle of a paragraph +spanning construct). +<p> To find out which paragraph is highlighted, call +<a href="#currentParagraph">currentParagraph</a>(). +<p> For example, if you're writing a simple C++ syntax highlighter, +you might designate 1 to signify "in comment". For a paragraph +that ended in the middle of a comment you'd return 1, and for +other paragraphs you'd return 0. In your parsing code if <em>endStateOfLastPara</em> was 1, you would highlight the text as a C++ +comment until you reached the closing <tt>*</tt><tt>/</tt>. + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="rehighlight"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::rehighlight () +</h3> Redoes the highlighting of the whole document. + +<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setFormat"></a>TQSyntaxHighlighter::setFormat ( int start, int count, const <a href="qfont.html">TQFont</a> & font, const <a href="qcolor.html">TQColor</a> & color ) +</h3> +This function is applied to the syntax highlighter's current +paragraph (the text of which is passed to the <a href="#highlightParagraph">highlightParagraph</a>() +function). +<p> The specified <em>font</em> and <em>color</em> are applied to the text from +position <em>start</em> for <em>count</em> characters.
