## Detailed Description

The QsciScintillaBase class implements the Scintilla editor widget and its low-level API.

Scintilla (http://www.scintilla.org) is a powerful C++ editor class that supports many features including syntax styling, error indicators, code completion and call tips. It is particularly useful as a programmer's editor.

QsciScintillaBase is a port to Qt of Scintilla. It implements the standard Scintilla API which consists of a number of messages each taking up to two arguments.

See QsciScintilla for the implementation of a higher level API that is more consistent with the rest of the Qt toolkit.

## Member Enumeration Documentation

anonymous enum

The low-level Scintilla API is implemented as a set of messages each of which takes up to two parameters (wParam and lParam) and optionally return a value. This enum defines all the possible messages.

Enumerator:

  SCI_ADDTEXT | This message appends some text to the end of the document. wParam is the length of the text. lParam is the text to be appended.

  SCI_GETCURRENTPOS

  This message returns the current position.
  See also:
    SCI_SETCURRENTPOS

  SCI_GETANCHOR

  This message returns the anchor.
  See also:
    SCI_SETANCHOR

  SCI_SETSAVEPOINT

  This message marks the current state of the text as the the save point. This is usually done when the text is saved or loaded.
  See also:
    SCN_SAVEPOINTREACHED(), SCN_SAVEPOINTLEFT()

  SCI_MARKERLINEFROMHANDLE

  This message returns the line that contains a particular instance of a marker. wParam is the handle of the marker.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERADD

  SCI_MARKERDELETEHANDLE

  This message removes a particular instance of a marker. wParam is the handle of the marker.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERADD

  SCI_GOTOPOS

  This message clears the current selection and sets the current position. wParam is the new current position.
  See also:
    SCI_SETCURRENTPOS

  SCI_SETANCHOR

  This message sets the anchor. wParam is the new anchor.
  See also:
    SCI_GETANCHOR

  SCI_GETENDSTYLED

  This message returns the character position of the start of the text that needs to be syntax styled.
  See also:
    SCN_STYLENEEDED()

  SCI_MARKERDEFINE

  This message sets the symbol used to draw one of 32 markers. Some markers have pre-defined uses, see the SC_MARKNUM_* values. wParam is the number of the marker. lParam is the marker symbol and is one of the SC_MARK_* values.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERADD, SCI_MARKERDEFINEPIXMAP

  SCI_MARKERSETFORE

  This message sets the foreground colour used to draw a marker. A colour is represented as a 24 bit value. The 8 least significant bits correspond to red, the middle 8 bits correspond to green, and the 8 most significant bits correspond to blue. The default value is 0x000000. wParam is the number of the marker. lParam is the colour.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERSETBACK

  SCI_MARKERSETBACK

  This message sets the background colour used to draw a marker. A colour is represented as a 24 bit value. The 8 least significant bits correspond to red, the middle 8 bits correspond to green, and the 8 most significant bits correspond to blue. The default value is 0xffffff. wParam is the number of the marker. lParam is the colour.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERSETFORE

  SCI_MARKERADD

  This message adds a marker to a line. A handle for the marker is returned which can be used to track the marker's position. wParam is the line number. lParam is the number of the marker.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERDELETE, SCI_MARKERDELETEALL, SCI_MARKERDELETEHANDLE

  SCI_MARKERDELETE

  This message deletes a marker from a line. wParam is the line number. lParam is the number of the marker.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERADD, SCI_MARKERDELETEALL

  SCI_MARKERDELETEALL

  This message deletes all occurences of a marker. wParam is the number of the marker. If wParam is -1 then all markers are removed.
  See also:

  SCI_MARKERGET | This message returns the 32 bit mask of markers at a line. wParam is the line number.

  SCI_MARKERNEXT

  This message looks for the next line to contain at least one marker contained in a 32 bit mask of markers and returns the line number. wParam is the line number to start the search from. lParam is the mask of markers to search for.
  See also:
    SCI_MARKERPREVIOUS

  SCI_MARKERPREVIOUS

  This message looks for the previous line to contain at least one marker contained in a 32 bit mask of markers and returns the line number. wParam is the line number to start the search from. lParam is the mask of markers to search for.
  See also:
