QScintilla - a Port to Qt v4 of Scintilla

Introduction

QScintilla is a port to Qt of the Scintilla editing component.

As well as features found in standard text editing components, Scintilla includes features especially useful when editing and debugging source code:

  • syntax styling with support for over 70 languages
  • error indicators
  • code completion
  • call tips
  • code folding
  • margins can contain markers like those used in debuggers to indicate breakpoints and the current line.
  • recordable macros
  • multiple views
  • printing.

QScintilla is a port or Scintilla to the Qt GUI toolkit from Nokia and runs on any operating system supported by Qt (eg. Windows, UNIX/Linux, MacOS/X). QScintilla works with both Qt v3 and v4.

This documentation describes QScintilla for Qt v4. The QScintilla APIs for Qt v3 and Qt v4 are almost identical. The main difference is that the QsciScintillaBase class is derived from a different Qt class.

QScintilla also includes language bindings for Python. These require that PyQt v3 or v4 is also installed.

This version of QScintilla is based on Scintilla v2.29.
