Detailed Description

A Parser can read the text content of a CodeEditor and decorate it.

Library: ilvadvgdt

Predefined parsers can be associated with filename extensions.

Member Function Documentation

void IlvCodeEditor::Parser::associate

(

const char *

ext

)

Associates a parser with a filename extension.

After this method is called, and when the user calls IlvCodeEditor::loadFile() providing a filename that has this extension, then the associated parser is invoked to decorate the file content.

Once associated with one or several filename extensions, the instance of Parser is automatically deleted by the library when the application exits. So the user code may typically look like:

IlvCodeEditor::Parser* cppParser = CreateDefaultParser();
cppParser->associate("cpp");
cppParser->associate("C");
cppParser->associate("h");
cppParser->associate("hxx");

The variable cppParser will be deleted on exit.

The predefined parser are:

• Default: see CreateDefaultParser().
• Java: see CreateJavaParser().
• JavaScript: see CreateJavaScriptParser().
• HTML: see CreateHTMLParser().
• Makefile: see CreateHTMLParser().

If the extension has already been associated to another parser, the old association is replaced by the new one

Parameters

ext	The filename extension, without the leading dot.
