Hi, I want to start an application with a text editor that provides a specific syntax highlighting, as the application is only going to support a specific type of files (MediaWiki). Then I plan to build some features (auto-complete, etc.) on top of it.
Not to reinvent the wheel, I wanted to reuse Kate’s text edition widget. I’ve actually been working on improving the MediaWiki syntax highlighting support in Kate, so reusing that work for my app would be ideal. So I found myself copying and pasting the code in http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Using_KParts Now I have a working KatePart. But I have no idea whatsoever about interacting with it from code (such as getting an instance of KateDocument). Any recommendation that puts me in the right direction to set the KatePart syntax highlighting from code? Also, I want to manually define the context-menu items and any other actions in the interface, so I’m not calling createGUI(m_part). Most KatePart actions I don’t want to provide, so is KatePart the right choice for me nonetheless? Or is there another way (without kparts) of reusing Kate’s text edition widget that fits my use case better?
