Issue visualising .icc file types

Tue Feb 02, 2021 12:33 pm
Hello everybody!

I have had very recently an issue with kdevelop: the way it opens my .icc file is completely messed... I see hexadecimal numbers and chars instead of proper c++ code.

I have not managed to change the filetype view even after adding the *.icc extension in the setting configuration (unfer Editor -> Open/Save).

Any idea how to change it?

Thank you in advance!

`*.icc` is not a suffix commonly used for C++ files. The standard usage is for ICC colour-calibration profiles, as listed in the IANA registry of file types. This is a binary format that wouldn't contain readable text, so KDevelop displays the file with its embedded hex editor.

If you must use this non-standard extension, you should add "*.icc" to the list of filename patterns for C++ source files in your system settings as shown in this screenshot, then KDevelop will consider it a C++ file and display it as text.
