Hi all, Marco and I have been working on libplasma2 in the frameworks branch. The past days have produced the following changes:
kdelibs/plasma is now only built on top of Qt was: kdelibs/plasma is not built at all on Qt5, as well as the kdeclarative library. We discussed this, and decided to drop the Qt4 build for libplasma and kdeclarative as the changes are way too intrusive to make sense on Qt4 (we dropped about 60K lines of QGraphicsView-based code, to be replaced with QML components). A very simple application starts and displays a FrameSvg on top of scene graph A very bare bones Plasma shell based on Qt5 and libplasma2 can now start on top of the frameworks branch. For that, build latest frameworks, run kbuildsycoca (the KF5 version!), build kde:scratch/mart/testplasma2 and try running the resulting binary. In order for the build to find KF5Transitional, we used the following magic incantation: cmake - DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/sebas/kf5/install - DCMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH=/usr:/usr/local:/home/sebas/kf5/install - DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH=/home/sebas/kf5/install/share/cmake/modules .. What's is still missing there is the control of what is getting displayed from the Corona. Plasma::Package::(un)install() are now non-static and async This was started at the Randa meeting, it makes package installation and uninstallation asynchronous, the functions now return a KJob* to track progress and result. The actual work is now done in a thread. I've not gotten all tests to pass yet, but we decided to get this in already anyway, we'll have a closer look at the tests, once we get consistent results there. Along with these changes, we've commmitted a crude port of plasmapkg into a new "frameworks" branch in kde-runtime. Installation and deinstallation of packages appears to work just fine with this. -- sebas and notmart http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org | GPG Key ID: 9119 0EF9 _______________________________________________ Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
