Description esigra 2005-12-20 12:03:21 UTC

Version:           2.4.1 (using KDE KDE 3.4.3)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
OS:                Linux

Open a directory containing sourceode files in Konqueror. Have a file called constants.hh containing only a few defined constants. In Konqueror's filetype column the file is identified as C++ declaration file. Opening it in Kate gives no syntax highlighting (it should). Changing the name to constants.h makes Konqueror identify the file type as ordinary text document (it should be C declaration file). Opening in Kate gives syntax highlighting, but for C++ (it should be C).

In the Kontrolcenter under filebindings the mimetype "text/x-c++hdr" has the filename patterns "*.hh", "*.hpp", "*.H". The mimetype "text/x-chdr" has the filename pattern "*.h".
