Книга: Learning GNU Emacs, 3rd Edition

9.3 C and C++ Support

Emacs automatically enters C mode when you visit a file whose suffix is .c, .h, .y (for yacc grammars), or .lex (lex specification files). Emacs invokes C++ mode when you visit a file whose suffix is .C, .H, .cc, .hh, .cpp, .cxx, .hxx, .c++, or .h++. You can also put any file in C mode manually by typing M-x c-mode Enter. Similarly, you can use c++-mode to put a buffer into C++ mode.

Both C and C++ modes are implemented in the same Emacs Lisp package, called cc-mode,[62] which also includes a mode for the Objective-C language used in Mac OS X. C mode understands both ANSI C and the older Kernighan and Ritchie C syntax. We describe C mode functions, but you should assume that everything also applies to C++ mode. C++ mode has a small number of additional features, which we describe at the end of this section.

We should also note that the Emacs mode for Perl is derived from an older version of C mode. If you program in Perl, you will find that virtually all of the motion, indentation, and formatting commands in C mode apply equally to Perl mode, with perl- replacing c- in their names. Emacs invokes Perl mode on files with suffix .pl. (However, to be honest we prefer CPerl mode, discussed later in this chapter.)

In C mode, Emacs understands the syntax elements described earlier in this chapter. The characters semicolon (;), colon (:), comma (,) curly braces ({ and }), and pound sign (#, for C preprocessor commands) are all electric, meaning that Emacs automatically indents the current line when you type them. It also actively uses the font options when you have font-lock mode turned on.
