How to highlight C/C++ header file names with the listings package?












0















C/C++ header files can be given in two forms: <foo> or "foo". For example:



#include <iostream>
#include "myheader.hpp"


By default, listings does not recognize the first form, and regards the second form as a string. For example:



documentclass{article}

usepackage{listings}
usepackage{xcolor}

lstset{
language = C++,
columns = flexible,
basicstyle = ttfamily,
stringstyle = color{red!80!black}
}

begin{document}

begin{lstlisting}
#include <iostream>
#include "myheader.hpp"
end{lstlisting}

end{document}


Wrong highlighting



For differentiation, I set strings in red. As you can see, iostream was not recognized at all, and "myheader.hpp" was recognized as a string.



How can I highlight header names in a special way? Maybe like this:



Correct highlighting



Note that both forms of header files are highlighted in a different way than genuine strings.



(In C++, the only valid occurrence of such names is after #include, if that helps.)
