lstlisting environment inside another environment
Didier Verna
Hello,
does anybody have a hack already to be able to put a listing environment
inside another, user-defined one ? The following example shows the
problem:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{listings}
\newenvironment{myenv}{%
\begin{lstlisting}[language=C]}{%
\end{lstlisting}}
\begin{document}
\begin{myenv}
int foo;
\end{myenv}
\end{document}

4.16 Environments
If you want to define your own pretty-printing environments, try the
following command. The syntax comes from LATEX’s \newenvironment.
\lstnewenvironment

Doesn't work either. OK, my minimal example was perhaps too minimal. I
need a listings environment inside another, not the other way around. It
is actually to put a listing inside a beamer block. Something like that:
\begin{block}<overlay>{title}
\begin{lstlisting}[all-sorts-of-options]
code...
\end{lstlisting}
\end{block}
I want a user-defined environment to do that, but it seems that listings
environments (whether explicit or created via \lstnewenvironment) don't
like to be put inside other ones.

And BTW, I can use \lstinputlisting instead of an environment (it
works in that case), but this is too boring for just a few lines of code.

This is all to do with catcodes, I think. I don't think it's possible
to nest lstlisting environments at all.

Hmmm. Nice way of saying RTFBM ! :-)
Thanks !

But in fact, that doesn't make it very easy to /rilly/ write inline
code in your document. In the meantime, I figured a way to do that by
hacking something on top of the verbatim package...
The idea is to output the environment's contents into a temporary file,
and use \lstinputlisting afterwards.
There you go !
\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{listings}
\usepackage{verbatim}

\newwrite\lstvrb@out
\newenvironment{ccode}{%
\begingroup
\@bsphack
\immediate\openout\lstvrb@out\jobname.lst
\let\do\@makeother\dospecials\catcode`\^^M\active
\def\verbatim@processline{%
\immediate\write\lstvrb@out{\the\verbatim@line}}%
\verbatim@start}{%
\immediate\closeout\lstvrb@out
\@esphack
\endgroup
\begin{block}{C Code}
\lstinputlisting[language=C]{\jobname.lst}
\end{block}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\begin{frame}[fragile]
\begin{ccode}
int foo (int bar)
{
return 3;
}
\end{ccode}
\end{frame}
\end{document}
