This contrib is the wxStyledTextCtrl, which is a wrapper around the
|
|
Scintilla edit control. (See www.scintilla.org)
|
|
|
|
There is still VERY MUCH to be done, most notable of which is a more
|
|
advanced sample that exercises more of the code. (I havn't tested
|
|
AutoComplete or CallTips, or most of the event types at all yet.) And
|
|
also documentation, adding wrappers for some new scintilla
|
|
functionality, building and testing on wxGTK, etc. Be patient, it all
|
|
will get there soon.
|
|
|

|
Let me describe a bit about the architecture I am implementing...
|
|
Obviously there is the Platform layer which implements the varioius
|
|
platform classes by using wxWindows classes and filling in where
|
|
needed. Then there is a ScintillaWX class that is derived from
|
|
ScintillaBase and implements the necessary virtual methods that
|
|
Scintilla needs to fully funciton. This class however is not meant to
|
|
ever be used directly by wx programmers. I call it one end of the
|
|
bridge between the wx and Scintilla worlds. The other end of the
|
|
bridge is a class called wxStyledTextCtrl that looks, feels and acts
|
|
like other classes in wxWindows. Here is a diagram:

wxStyledTextCtrl derives from wxControl so it has a window that can be
|
|
drawn upon. When a wxStyledTextCtrl is constructed it constructs a
|
|
ScintillaWX for itself and passes itself to the scintilla object to be
|
|
set as the wMain and wDraw attributes. All method calls on the STC
|
|
are sent over the bridge in the form of calls to ScintiallWX::WndProc.
|
|
All notifications are sent back over the bridge and turned into
|
|
wxEvents.

[SOLARIS NOTE - ellers@iinet.net.au - June 2002]
|
|
|
|
On sunos5 (sparc) the stc code breaks if optimisation is turned on (the
|
|
default). If your release build breaks but the debug build is fine,
|
|
try reconfiguring with --disable-optimise and rebuilding. If you are using
|
|
wxPython you will also need to disable optimised compiling. To do this I
|
|
had to hand modify the python makefile in (prefix)/lib/python2.2/config/Makefile
|
|
to remove optimisation flags.
