Dear all,
finally I managed to customize the gui provided by kdevplatform.
I'm sending the technical details here:
- as Julian already figured out, trying to set a custom main window
is not a practical approach, because the application will crash;
also the main window is too tightly coupled with the rest of
kdevplatform
- customizing the kdevplatform GUI can be done from a plugin,
by overriding
IPlugin::createActionsForMainWindow
- in the above mentioned method, the XML for the GUI can be set,
the actions for the gui can be created,
and finally
window->setupGUI()
has to be called, for applying the gui
- automatic loading of the project plugins doesn't seem to work
on my system (kdevplatform 1.0.0), so for now
I'm propsing to load the project plugins
explicitly from main, as a workaround.
It doesn't hurt, if the plugin is already loaded.
Code can be found in the "new-gui" branch, on github and on sourceforge.
