Detailed Description

Highlighting information interface for the Document.

Introduction

The HighlightInterface provides methods to access the Attributes used for highlighting the Document.

Accessing the HighlightInterface

The HighlightInterface is supposed to be an extension interface for a Document, i.e. the Document inherits the interface provided that the used KTextEditor library implements the interface. Use qobject_cast to access the interface:

// doc is of type KTextEditor::Document*
KTextEditor::HighlightInterface *iface =
    qobject_cast<KTextEditor::HighlightInterface*>( doc );

if( iface ) {
    // the implementation supports the interface
    // do stuff
}

TODO: I intended to make this const but Kate's implementation needs to call kateTextline which is non-const. Solution?

virtual QList<AttributeBlock> KTextEditor::HighlightInterface::lineAttributes ( const unsigned int  line )

pure virtual

Get the list of AttributeBlocks for a given line in the document.

Returns

list of AttributeBlocks for given line.
