LyX ⇒ Software Listings and LaTeX Code

[Caterpillar]

One month ago I started studying LyX to write a software project documentation.
Everything is okay except for software listings.
I would like to have software listings like you can see in http://gapil.gnulinux.it/files/2011/12/gapil.pdf at page 641 (number of page, not number of pdf's page)
To do that I downloaded the .tex files of Gapil book at http://gapil.truelite.it/sources/browser/trunk

The software listings of Gapil book are under listati subfolder. I found out that the part of tex file that manages software listings are:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}[!htb]
    \footnotesize \centering
    \begin{minipage}[c]{15.6cm}
        \includecodesample{cancellami/UDP_daytimed.c}
    \end{minipage}
    \normalsize
    \caption{Sezione principale del server per il servizio \textit{daytime} su     UDP.}
    \label{fig:UDP_daytime_server}
\end{figure}

So I tried to insert LaTex code into the Lyx document but it did not work. Before I get into specific error messages, is there anything wrong in this procedure I am doing?

LyX version: 2.0.2

Welcome to the board!

You need to

• load the listings package in your preamble, such as by

  Code: Select all

  1
  \usepackage{listings}
   
   
  הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

• define the macro \includecodesample which you used. In your book example it is defined in macros.tex:

  Code: Select all

  1
  \newcommand{\includecodesample}[1]{\lstinputlisting{#1}}{}
   
   
  הההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההההה
  XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Put both in your document preamble.

Note that LyX has natively supported "listing" for a couple of years now. Go to Insert > Program Listing. You can right-click on a listings inset (box) and go to "Settings" to get more control. Also look under Document > Settings > Listings for more customization.
