[Qt-interest] Syntax Highlighter State Stack

[Scott Aron Bloom]

Did you look at the QT syntax highlighter example?

Did you look at the non-gui datatstructures given to you by QT in the
docs?
http://doc.trolltech.com/4.3/tools.html

First, think of it in a Non-QT way?? What container would you use?

Then check, does QT supply one?

If not, does someone else?

If not, write your own...

But your question is STILL a C++ question, not a QT question...

Your asking is a stack the correct way to implement this... That's for
you to decide...

If you asked, "I need a stack, and cant find it in the thousands of QT
pages of documentation, but Im sure it must exist"

I would say, look at QStack
