New subject: [xwiki-users] Displaying C/C++ Code Samples on XWiki page

2 Sep 2005

I'm having difficulty putting C/C++ code on an XWiki page:

{code}
#include <stdio.h>
{code}

or

{pre}
#include <stdio.h>
{/pre}

both result in exception stack trace in the web page.

When I try

{code}
\#include <stdio.h>
{code}

it works ok.

Escaping the #include with a backslash is an acceptable workaround in the 
short term -- but shouldn't the {pre} or {code} tags disable the special 
meaning of the # character?
