**Important note**: This document is not ready for release yet.
|
|
|
|
This document explains how to add your own modules to the GNAT Studio
|
|
programming system.
|
|
|
|
GNAT Studio is a fully open architecture, to which one can add new features
|
|
ranging from new menu items to launch external tools to full support for new
|
|
languages, including cross-references.
|
|
|
|
.. index:: adding menus
|
|
.. index:: menus
|
|
.. index:: toolbar
|
|
.. index:: key bindings
|
|
|
|
Some of these additions can be done solely through the use of text files. These
|
|
are for instance adding new key bindings to various parts of GNAT Studio,
|
|
for instance in the editor. The end-user can also easily add new menus or
|
|
toolbar buttons. See the customization chapters in the GNAT Studio user's guide.
|
|
|
|
This document will focus on these additions that can only be done
|
|
through programming languages.
|
|
|
|
At this point, GNAT Studio can only be extended by programming in **Ada**.
|
|
In addition, it is planned for the near future that extensions in **C** or
|
|
**C++** can be done. Work is under way to extend python scripting in
|
|
GNAT Studio.
|
|
|
|
Likewise, adding basic support for new languages will be made easier, and
|
|
doable through external text files, requiring no programming. This is not
|
|
available for this first release of the GNAT Studio environment.
