I was working with the open source C++ documents and I am trying to add a new feature. I have already figured out how to add the new menu and its sub menu but what I'm trying to do requires me to update text entered in the main window. What functions can I call or what can I specifically do in order to alter text entered from the user in the notepad++ window? Would I have to call something from the Scintilla project? Any kind of help would be great!! Thanks.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Yes, you have to call functions from the Scintilla project, taking care to do so only for the view of interest.
Some of the Scintilla functions are already wrapped for you by the ScintillaEditView class. For example, the ScintillaEditView::getText functions call the appropriate Scintilla functions for you.
Regards.
