Glib::RefPtr< gtksourceview::SourceBuffer > | wrap (GtkSourceBuffer *object, bool take_copy=false) |
It extends the TextBuffer object by adding features necessary to display and edit source code: syntax highlighting, bracket matching and markers. It also implements support for undo/redo operations. To create a SourceBuffer use SourceBuffer::create(). By default highlighting is enabled, but you can disable it with SourceBuffer::set_highlight(). This can be useful if you're not using SourceLanguage objects to set the highlighting patterns, and instead you're manually adding SourceTag objects to the buffer's tag table.

static Glib::RefPtr<SourceBuffer> gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::create | ( | Glib::RefPtr< SourceLanguage > & | language | ) | [static] |
brief create a new SourceBuffer
language | the language to be considered by the SourceBuffer for syntax highlighting. |
bool gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_check_brackets | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether bracket match highlighting is activated for the source buffer.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_check_brackets | ( | bool | check_brackets = true |
) |
controls the bracket match highlighting function in the buffer.
If activated, when you position your cursor over a bracket character (a parenthesis, a square bracket, etc.) the matching opening or closing bracket character will be highlighted. You can specify the style with the SourceBuffer::set_bracket_match_style() function.
check_brackets | true if you want matching brackets highlighted. |
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_bracket_match_style | ( | const SourceTagStyle & | style | ) |
Sets the style used for highlighting matching brackets.
style | the SourceTagStyle specifying colors and text attributes |
bool gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_highlight | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether text highlighting is activated in the source buffer.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_highlight | ( | bool | highlight = true |
) |
controls whether text is highlighted in the buffer.
If highlight is TRUE, the text will be highlighted according to the patterns installed in the buffer (either set with SourceBuffer::set_language() or by adding individual GtkSourceTag tags to the buffer's tag table). Otherwise, any current highlighted text will be restored to the default buffer style. Tags not of SourceTag type will not be removed by this option, and normal Gtk::TextTag priority settings apply when highlighting is enabled. If not using a SourceLanguage for setting the highlighting patterns in the buffer, it is recommended for performance reasons that you add all the SourceTag tags with highlighting disabled and enable it when finished.
highlight | true if you want to activate highlighting |
int gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_max_undo_levels | ( | ) | const |
Determines the number of undo levels the buffer will track for buffer edits.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_max_undo_levels | ( | int | max_undo_levels | ) |
Sets the number of undo levels for user actions the buffer will track.
If the number of user actions exceeds the limit set by this function, older actions will be discarded. A new action is started whenever the function Gtk::TextBuffer::begin_user_action() is called. In general, this happens whenever the user presses any key which modifies the buffer, but the undo manager will try to merge similar consecutive actions, such as multiple character insertions into one action. But, inserting a newline does start a new action.
max_undo_levels | the desired maximum number of undo levels. |
Glib::RefPtr<SourceLanguage> gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_language | ( | ) |
Determines the GtkSourceLanguage used by the buffer.
Glib::RefPtr<const SourceLanguage> gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_language | ( | ) | const |
Determines the GtkSourceLanguage used by the buffer.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_language | ( | Glib::RefPtr< SourceLanguage > | language | ) |
Sets the GtkSourceLanguage the source buffer will use.
This adds GtkSourceTag tags with the language's patterns and sets the escape character with SourceBuffer::set_escape_char(). Note that this will remove any SourceTag tags currently in the buffer's tag table. The buffer holds a reference to the language set.
language | a GtkSourceLanguage to set. |
gunichar gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::get_escape_char | ( | ) | const |
Determines the escaping character used by the source buffer highlighting engine.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::set_escape_char | ( | gunichar | escape_char | ) |
Sets the escape character to be used by the highlighting engine.
When performing the initial analysis, the engine will discard a matching syntax pattern if it's prefixed with an odd number of escape characters. This allows for example to correctly highlight strings with escaped quotes embedded. This setting affects only syntax patterns (i.e. those defined in GtkSyntaxTag tags).
escape_char | the escape character the buffer should use. |
bool gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::can_undo | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether a source buffer can undo the last action.
bool gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::can_redo | ( | ) | const |
Determines whether a source buffer can redo the last action.
I.E if the last operation was an undo.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::undo | ( | ) |
Undoes the last user action which modified the buffer.
Use SourceBuffer::can_undo() to check whether a call to this function will have any effect. Actions are defined as groups of operations between a call to TextBuffer::begin_user_action() and TextBuffer::end_user_action(), or sequences of similar edits (inserts or deletes) on the same line.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::redo | ( | ) |
redoes the last undo operation.
Use SourceBuffer::can_redo() to check whether a call to this function will have any effect.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::begin_not_undoable_action | ( | ) |
Marks the beginning of a not undoable action on the buffer, disabling the undo manager.
Typically you would call this function before initially setting the contents of the buffer (e.g. when loading a file in a text editor). You may nest SourceBuffer::begin_not_undoable_action() / SourceBuffer::end_not_undoable_action() blocks.
void gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::end_not_undoable_action | ( | ) |
Marks the end of a not undoable action on the buffer.
When the last not undoable block is closed through the call to this function, the list of undo actions is cleared and the undo manager is re-enabled.
Glib::RefPtr<SourceMarker> gtksourceview::SourceBuffer::create_marker | ( | const Glib::ustring & | name, | |
const Glib::ustring & | type, | |||
const Gtk::TextIter & | where | |||
) |
Creates a marker in the buffer of type type.
A marker is semantically very similar to a GtkTextMark, except it has a type which is used by the SourceView displaying the buffer to show a pixmap on the left margin, at the line the marker is in. Because of this, a marker is generally associated to a line and not a character position. Markers are also accessible through a position or range in the buffer. Markers are implemented using Gtk::TextMark, so all characteristics and restrictions to marks apply to markers too. These includes life cycle issues and "mark-set" and "mark-deleted" signal emissions. Like a Gtk::TextMark, a SourceMarker can be anonymous if the passed name is "". Also, the buffer owns the markers so you shouldn't unreference it. Markers always have left gravity and are moved to the beginning of the line when the user deletes the line they were in. Also, if the user deletes a region of text which contained lines with markers, those are deleted. Typical uses for a marker are bookmarks, breakpoints, current executing instruction indication in a source file, etc..
