I've started implementing it a bit other way, through Code::Blocks' internal editor. It works similar to your implementation of the external editor:

- Hook to EVT_EDITOR_SAVE and EVT_EDITOR_CLOSE events
- When user clicks Edit, create a temporary file and put the snippet to it, record the file name
- Use C::B API to open the file
- On EVT_EDITOR_SAVE check if the file name is recorded, if it is, transfer the text from the file to the snippet
- On EVT_EDITOR_CLOSE check if the file name is recorded, if it is, remove it

This is how it works in general, although I need EVT_EDITOR_OPEN to check if the current tree item id has already a file open etc.

Wonderful !!

Speaking of implementations...

Please find attached the Catagory/snippet dragging code. It allows the user to drag snippets into and out of another Catagory or drag Catagories into and out of other Catagories.

I implemented it as an xml document that simply extracts and inserts the tree items using your Load/Save snippet xml routines.

I believe that finishes my promised code.

Thanks! :)

Arto,

I've just discovered something great about CodeSnippets.

I can drag a forum url out of Firefox to a snippets category and it will create a snippet containing that url.

With the dragndrop additions I sent you, I can then drag the snippet back to Firefox, returning to that forum thread.

I was shocked!

I always wanted something like this. It's better than a bookmark because I can put the url along with/under the associated working code snippet category. Later, when I look back at the code snippet/file, the url discussion is right there.

Not only that, I can drag a bugReport/patch url to the relavent snippet category.
It's great!

I've made come changes to the dragndrop, specifically, 1) ability to automatically create an enclosing category when dragging a snippet to a snippet, 2) use of ctrl key to "copy" a snippet when dragging.

Have a look at the bottom of app.h to see the change log.
Maybe there's something there that you will find useful.

ps, Your code taught me to correctly spell category.

I've just discovered that a snippet catagory will *always* be created when dragging a snippet out of the tree. I'll fix this today. Just a heads up in case you find this problem in my code.

Arto,

The problem was in CodeSnippetsWindow::OnEndDrag(). The very code I've hoped you'd check out. I'm embarrased.
 
Below is a corrected version.
