    \class SyntaxHighlighter

    \brief The SyntaxHighlighter class allows you to define syntax highlighting rules and to query
    a document's current formatting or user data.

    The SyntaxHighlighter class is a copied and forked version of the QSyntaxHighlighter. There are
    a couple of binary incompatible changes that prevent doing this directly in Qt.

    The main difference from the QSyntaxHighlighter is the addition of setExtraFormats.
    This method prevents redoing syntax highlighting when setting the formats on the
    layout and subsequently marking the document contents dirty. It thus prevents the redoing of the
    semantic highlighting, which sets extra formats, and so on.

    Another way to implement the semantic highlighting is to use ExtraSelections on
    Q(Plain)TextEdit. The drawback of QTextEdit::setExtraSelections is that ExtraSelection uses a
    QTextCursor for positioning. That means that with every document change (that is, every
    keystroke), a whole bunch of cursors can be re-checked or re-calculated. This is not needed in
    our situation, because the next thing that will happen is that the highlighting will come up
    with new ranges, meaning that it destroys the cursors. To make things worse, QTextCursor
    calculates the pixel position in the line it's in. The calculations are done with
    QTextLine::cursorTo, which is very expensive and is not optimized for fixed-width fonts. Another
    reason not to use ExtraSelections is that those selections belong to the editor, not to the
    document. This means that every editor needs a highlighter, instead of every document. This
    could become expensive when multiple editors with the same document are opened.

    So, we use formats, because all those highlights should get removed or redone soon
    after the change happens.

    \fn void SyntaxHighlighter::highlightBlock(const QString &text)

    Highlights the given text block. This function is called when
    necessary by the rich text engine, i.e. on text blocks which have
    changed.

    To provide your own syntax highlighting, you must subclass
    SyntaxHighlighter and reimplement highlightBlock(). In your
    reimplementation you should parse the block's \a text and call
    setFormat() as often as necessary to apply any font and color
    changes that you require. For example:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_gui_text_SyntaxHighlighter.cpp 3

    Some syntaxes can have constructs that span several text
    blocks. For example, a C++ syntax highlighter should be able to
    cope with \c{/}\c{*...*}\c{/} multiline comments. To deal with
    these cases it is necessary to know the end state of the previous
    text block (e.g. "in comment").

    Inside your highlightBlock() implementation you can query the end
    state of the previous text block using the previousBlockState()
    function. After parsing the block you can save the last state
    using setCurrentBlockState().

    The currentBlockState() and previousBlockState() functions return
    an int value. If no state is set, the returned value is -1. You
    can designate any other value to identify any given state using
    the setCurrentBlockState() function. Once the state is set the
    QTextBlock keeps that value until it is set set again or until the
    corresponding paragraph of text gets deleted.

    For example, if you're writing a simple C++ syntax highlighter,
    you might designate 1 to signify "in comment". For a text block
    that ended in the middle of a comment you'd set 1 using
    setCurrentBlockState, and for other paragraphs you'd set 0.
    In your parsing code if the return value of previousBlockState()
    is 1, you would highlight the text as a C++ comment until you
    reached the closing \c{*}\c{/}.

    Attaches the given \a data to the current text block.  The

    QTextBlockUserData can be used to store custom settings. In the
    case of syntax highlighting, it is in particular interesting as
    cache storage for information that you may figure out while
    parsing the paragraph's text.

    For example while parsing the text, you can keep track of
    parenthesis characters that you encounter ('{[(' and the like),
    and store their relative position and the actual QChar in a simple
    class derived from QTextBlockUserData:

    \snippet doc/src/snippets/code/src_gui_text_SyntaxHighlighter.cpp 4

    During cursor navigation in the associated editor, you can ask the
    current QTextBlock (retrieved using the QTextCursor::block()
    function) if it has a user data object set and cast it to your \c
    BlockData object. Then you can check if the current cursor
    position matches with a previously recorded parenthesis position,
    and, depending on the type of parenthesis (opening or closing),
    find the next opening or closing parenthesis on the same level.

    In this way you can do a visual parenthesis matching and highlight
    from the current cursor position to the matching parenthesis. That
    makes it easier to spot a missing parenthesis in your code and to
    find where a corresponding opening/closing parenthesis is when
    editing parenthesis intensive code.
