SNiFF+ and Vim *sniff*
1. Introduction |sniff-intro|
2. Commands |sniff-commands|
3. Compiling Vim with SNiFF+ interface |sniff-compiling|
{Vi does not have any of these commands} *E275* *E274* *E276* *E278* *E279*
The SNiFF+ interface only works, when Vim was compiled with the |+sniff|
feature.
==============================================================================
1. Introduction *sniff-intro*
The following features for the use with SNiFF+ are available:
* Vim can be used for all editing requests
* SNiFF+ recognizes and updates all browsers when a file is saved in Vim
* SNiFF+ commands can be issued directly from Vim
How to use Vim with SNiFF+
1. Make sure SNiFF+ is running.
2. In the Editor view of the Preferences dialog set the Field named
'External Editor' to 'Emacs/Vim'.
4. Start Vim
5. Connect to SNiFF+ (:sniff connect)
Once a connection is established, SNiFF+ uses Vim for all requests to show or
edit source code. On the other hand, you can send queries to SNiFF+ with the
:sniff command.
==============================================================================
2. Commands *sniff-commands*
*:sniff* *:sni*
:sni[ff] request [symbol] Send request to sniff with optional symbol.
{not in Vi}
:sni[ff] Display all possible requests and the connection
status
Most requests require a symbol (identifier) as parameter. If it is omitted,
Vim will use the current word under the cursor.
The available requests are listed below:
request mapping description
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
connect sc Establish connection with SNiFF+.
Make sure SNiFF+ is prepared for this in the
Preferences
disconnect sq Disconnect from SNiFF+. You can reconnect any
time with :sniff connect (or 'sc')
toggle st Toggle between implementation
and definition file
find-symbol sf Load the symbol into a Symbol Browser
browse-class sb Loads the class into a Class Browser
superclass ss Edit superclass of symbol
overridden so Edit overridden method of symbol
retrieve-file srf Retrieve symbol in current file
retrieve-project srp Retrieve symbol in current project
retrieve-all-projects srP Retrieve symbol in all projects
retrieve-next sR Retrieve symbol using current Retriever
settings
goto-symbol sg Goto definition or implementation of symbol
hierarchy sh Load symbol into the Hierarchy Browser
restr-hier sH same as above but show only related classes
xref-to sxt Start a refers-to query on symbol and
load the results into the Cross Referencer
xref-by sxb Start a referred-by query on symbol
xref-has sxh Start a refers-to components query on symbol
xref-used-by sxu Start a referred-by as component query on
symbol
show-docu sd Show documentation of symbol
gen-docu sD Generate documentation of symbol
The mappings are defined in a file 'sniff.vim', which is part of every SNiFF+
product ($SNIFF_DIR/config/sniff.vim). This file is sourced whenever Vim
connects to SNiFF+.
==============================================================================
3. Compiling Vim with SNiFF+ interface *sniff-compiling*
To compile Vim with SNiFF+ support, you need two source files of the extra
archive: if_sniff.c and if_sniff.h.
On Unix: Edit the Makefile and uncomment the line "--enable-sniff". Or run
configure manually with this argument.
On NT: Specify SNIFF=yes with your make command.
