QTCreator 3.5.1 is best when we using it in Ubuntu14.04 64bit PC with QT5.6.
We can set color scheme via Options ->Text Editor.

I don't get what you mean: you asked for an IDE with syntax highlighting. QtCreator is a C++ oriented IDE, coded using Qt. You have to be more specific if you want more information....

AndrzejB

I ask for editing component to use in own program.

You could try taking a look at http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-richtext-syntaxhighlighter-example.html

Hi @AndrzejB ,

Some thing like Scintilla and these , component to edit open source code editing ?

AndrzejB

Thanks, this component has highlighting but if has also folding and all features like QtCreator?

AndrzejB

JuffEd uses QSciScintilla

Ni.Sumi

@AndrzejB
@AndrzejB ,

Yes, they have code folding , find /replace and all.

Just out of curiosity, What's the reason to use editing component when there is Qt creator which is very powerful ?

QtCreator is program, I ask for component

I have downloaded QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2 to g:\Qt\QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2
g:\Qt\QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2\Qt4Qt5\qscintilla.pro - build ok, but when I open g:\Qt\QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2\example-Qt4Qt5\application.pro are errors:

G:\Qt\QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2\example-Qt4Qt5\main.cpp:22: błąd: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'QApplication': No such file or directory

G:\Qt\QScintilla_gpl-2.9.2\example-Qt4Qt5\mainwindow.cpp:22: błąd: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'QAction': No such file or directory

g:\qt\qscintilla_gpl-2.9.2\example-Qt4Qt5\mainwindow.h:25: błąd: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'QMainWindow': No such file or directory

Why can't find QApplication,QAction and QMainWindow ?

@AndrzejB

Could you please check the pro file . it has this QT += gui or not?

Also try this, right click on the project name and click on "Run qmake " and rebuild /run

AndrzejB

CONFIG      += release qscintilla2

macx {
    QMAKE_POST_LINK = install_name_tool -change libqscintilla2.12.dylib $$[QT_INSTALL_LIBS]/libqscintilla2.12.dylib $(TARGET)
}

HEADERS      = mainwindow.h
SOURCES      = main.cpp mainwindow.cpp
RESOURCES    = application.qrc

"Run qmake " is ok, but run program - error

? Offline

You did not do something like @Ni-Sumi said:
QT += gui

same

AndrzejB

INCLUDEPATH += g:\Qt\Qt5.6.1\5.6\msvc2015_64\include\QtWidgets
nothing helps

@AndrzejB

You should list all the modules you're using, only QT += gui will not be enough. Looking at the errors, you need the core, gui and widgets module, so the following:

QT += core gui widgets

should be present somewhere in your project file. Adding the modules will take care of the include and linkage paths, so INCLUDEPATH += g:\Qt\Qt5.6.1\5.6\msvc2015_64\include\QtWidgets is not necessary.

Kind regards.
