Need function highlighting in CodeBrowser plugin
Submitted by Anonymous on Friday, 8 April, 2005 - 09:04
One of the frequent things I run into is that I search for a word or a tag in my
C program and end up somewhere in a file. I end up scrolling up the screen to know
which function the cursor is in and come back to the cursor position. A nice feature
would be if the CodeBrowser plugin can highlight the function in which the cursor is
currently located.

No it isn't quite. The Codebrowser there was the answer to a question; this is a request to enhance codebrowser.

I looked into the code of codebrowser and it seems to be feasible to extend it. However I don't have the guts to Eye-wink

It involves a call to textarea.getcaretline and then determine the function-at-the-heighest-line-below-current-line. Then highlight it, just the same as the currentbuffer is highlighted.
