SourceHighlightPlugin
This plugin allows you to have code fragments automatically formatted and highlighted using the
GNU source-highlight package.

Plugin Installation Instructions
Note: You do not need to install anything on the browser to use this plugin. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the plugin on the server where TWiki is running.
* Install the GNU source-highlight package and note its location
- Download the ZIP file from the Plugin web (see below)
- Unzip
SourceHighlightPlugin.zip
in your twiki installation directory. Content:
File: | Description: |
data/TWiki/SourceHighlightPlugin.txt | Plugin topic |
lib/TWiki/Plugins/SourceHighlightPlugin.pm | Plugin Perl module |
- To get a smart-looking box around the code fragment, something like the following is needed in the skin's stylesheet. Note that you may need to change the class name if you modify the FORMATCLASS configuration variable above.
.codefragment {
background : #FFFFCC;
border : 1px solid #CCCCCC;
margin-left : 2em;
margin-right : 2em;
padding : 4px;
}
- Test if the installation was successful:
package com.foo.stuff;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.util.List;
public class Thingy
{
private List myList;
public Thingy()
{
myList = new ArrayList();
}
/**
* @param count This is the thingy you want.
*/
public String getThingy( int count )
{
return (String)myList.get( count );
}
