Hi all, I am trying to make a template which contains syntax highlighting. I made a template: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Template:VTKCMakeLists I then tried to use this template with: {{VTKCMakeLists|Thing1|Thing2}} But you can see here: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Sandbox/UseCMakeListsTemplate that it does not trigger the source code to be highlighted, but rather actually includes the source tag as part of the text on the page. Is there any way to do this? Thanks! David

Hi, Take the <nowiki></nowiki> tags out of your template. If you don't want it highlighting on the template page itself, use <includeonly> tags around the <source> tags instead. Regards, Daniel On 1 October 2010 16:37, David Doria <daviddoria(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for the quick reply Daniel. Sorry, the nowiki tags were there as a result of my experimenting. I replaced them with includeonly tags but you can see the result is now different but still not correct. Any more ideas?

Hi David, Is there a specific reason why you don't want the syntax highlighting on the template page? If not, I would suggest leaving out the includeonly tags entirely and just letting the source tag do its thing. If there is, you might try putting <noinclude></noinclude> in the middle of the source tag (to "break" it in the template), but I'm not entirely certain that will work either. Certainly the easiest, and most reliable, way is to just let the tags resolve on the template page. Regards, Daniel On 1 October 2010 16:58, David Doria <daviddoria(a)gmail.com> wrote:

I am not trying to do anything special - I just want the "easy, reliable" way to work :) I have removed all the tags (this is what I tried at the very beginning) and you can see that the template is not completed (the {{{ }}}} is visible on the UseCMakeListsTemplate page). See what I mean? Thanks, David On Fri, Oct 1, 2010 at 12:05 PM, Daniel Bishop <aerosatar(a)gmail.com> wrote:

rather

actually includes the source tag as part of the text on the page. Is there any way to do this? Thanks! David _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l

Hi David, Ok, a couple of questions. 1) Do you have the latest version of the extension? (available at http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:SyntaxHighlight_GeSHi) 2) Have you tried using the <syntaxhighlight> tag, as the extension's documentation states that the <source> tag is deprecated.

Hi Daniel, My system admin installed the latest version of GeSHi so I can now replace my <source> tags with <syntaxhighlight> tags. However, I'm having the same problem: Here is the template: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Template:VTKCMakeLists <http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Template:VTKCMakeLists>And the attempted usage: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Sandbox <http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Sandbox>Any ideas why the template {{{1}}} does not get replaced, but rather is just displayed as {{{1}}}?

Because it is a function tag instead of a parser function. {{#tag:syntaxhighlight|{{{1}}} }} would do it, but I'm not sure if lang="cmake" can be provided that way.

I don't understand where to put that {{#tag:syntaxhighlight|{{{1}}} }} ? I tried replacing a {{{1}}} with it, but it is just displayed as the {{{1}}} was before: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/Template:VTKCMakeLists Thanks, David On Wed, Nov 3, 2010 at 5:13 PM, Platonides <Platonides(a)gmail.com> wrote:

Yes, {{#tag:source|{{{2}}}|lang={{{1}}}}}. Revelant bug report is here: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25547 -peachey

Hm, but I don't need the paramter to be inside the <> of the tag (like this : <source lang="{{{1}}}). Instead, I just need <source lang="cmake"> {{{1}}} </source> It sounded like this should work? David On Wed, Nov 3, 2010 at 8:06 PM, K. Peachey <p858snake(a)yahoo.com.au> wrote:

BesuglovS explained the solution on the wiki. The template must look like this: {{#tag:syntaxhighlight | PROJECT({{{1}}}) ADD_EXECUTABLE({{{1}}} {{{1}}}.cxx) |lang=cmake}} Thanks all! David On Thu, Nov 4, 2010 at 7:58 AM, David Doria <daviddoria(a)gmail.com> wrote:
