Every lstlistings
block can have its own formatting commands. So:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{listings}
\lstset{basicstyle=\ttfamily}
\begin{document}
\begin{lstlisting}
Foo
\end{lstlisting}
\begin{lstlisting}[basicstyle=\sffamily]
Bar
\end{lstlisting}
\lstset{basicstyle=\rmfamily}
\begin{lstlisting}
Baz
\end{lstlisting}
\end{document}
If you want to use two distinct listings and resetting the listings like this manually is a hassle, just create some new environments with lstnewenvironment
for example:
\lstnewenvironment{sflisting}{\lstset{basicstyle=\sffamily}}{}
\lstnewenvironment{ttlisting}{\lstset{basicstyle=\ttfamily}}{}
page 42 of the listings manual has the details
A couple things seem to being going on here.
The first is that you're not taking advantage of the sidecap
package for your listings environment. The second is that you're telling the listings
environment that the caption should go on the top and bottom---so you're probably getting some kind of conflict.
The solution here is not optimal: it will not allow your listings
environment to straddle page boundaries. But that doesn't seem too bad considering you want to treat it like a figure.
What I've done here is place the listings
inside a minipage
inside a SCfigure
environment. The minipage
is set to the width of the text for the current page.

Another idea I had was to put the listings
into a standalone
file and import the results of compiling that. But, the results did not look quite as good.

Here's an example using the subcaption package which is included in the caption package bundle. (Note that the
\rule
command in my example is only a placeholder for\includegraphics
.)EDIT: The subfigure entry of the TeX Catalogue OnLine states:
