LyX ⇒ Inserting C++-Code gets really messy

[raycluster]

Hi

I tried to insert this:

listing.png (30.87 KiB) Viewed 5760 times

into LyX, but all I get is this:

lyx.png (77.42 KiB) Viewed 5760 times

I tried many different programs to copy the code from, and also tried to convert my source to different codings, but nothing works. Please help, I need to get this code into my document

Hi,

i would use the listings-package written by Casrten Heinz. You can easily insert C code by typing

Code: Select all

\begin{lstlisting}[language=C, frame=single, felxiblecolumns=true]
void main(void)
{
...
}
\end{lstlisting}

I don't know how to implement latex code in lyx

take a look at wiki...

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LaTeX/Source_Code_Listings

the \lstinputlisting-command can be used to implement files:

Code: Select all

\lstinputlisting[firstline=17,lastline=20]{prog.c}

to include line 17 to 20.

You can define single parts of the file:

Code: Select all

\lstdef{part1}{mycfile.cpp}{1}{5}

then use

Code: Select all

\lstuse{part1}

to include this part of the file.

I worked it out.
Instead of inserting the Code with CTRL-V, insert it with CTRL-SHIFT-V. This removes any formatting inside the clipboard before pasting it to the textfield of a program.
