Debug plasma crash when plasmoid calls serviceForSource
Hi, the plasmoid I'm developing makes plasma crash when I call serviceForSource. This happens sometimes, and I can reproduce it by flooding plasma with serviceForSource requests (scrolling the mouse wheel over the plasmoid creates a lot of this requests). My plasmoid implements a custom dataengine. I've tried to flood plasma with serviceForSource requests towards a standard dataEngine (mpris) and I cannot reproduce the crash. So I guess the crash is caused by my implementation. The point is that the crash happens after calling serviceForSource from the plasmoid but before reaching the dataEngine (the debug string in the dataengine is not shown before the crash). How can I debug this problem? Even though I've debug symbols installed, drkonqi is not shown after the crash of plasma. Thanks
Re: Porting C++ plasmoid and dataengine to plasma5
Thanks Marco for pointing me in the right direction. My use case is more or less what I've explained before: - I need to control the process for the program redshift. - The process is controlled by a dataengine which need to be able to access the configuration - I want more than an instance of the plasmoid to be able to control it, so they need to share the configuration among themselves and with the dataengine. In plasma 4 I was using KConfigXT with the integration in KConfigDialog as explained here: https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Using_KConfig_XT#Use_and_Dialogs so that the configuration dialogs where all automatically in sync and the settings were available to the data engine. Still I don't understand one thing: - when I open the configuration ui how do I load the data in the ui fields from applet.globalconfig? Is there a signal that tells me that the configuration is about to be shown? On documentation: Can you point me out some references on the use of nativeinterface, the attached plasmoid object, how you manage the configuration? Possibly I can help in writing some documentation on this. All this plasma mechanism are very fancy, but from my personal experience it's very frustrating developing plasmoid that do something more than displaying "Hello world", due to the lack of documentation for plasma 5. Information is sparse in blog posts or outdated, most of my development has relied on reverse engineer other plasmoids. Thanks for the help.

Porting C++ plasmoid and dataengine to plasma5
Hi all, time ago I've designed a Plasma 4 plasmoid together with a dataengine to configure and control a process (redshift). The structure is the following: - The plasmoid allow the user to start and stop the process, this is done by running a servicejob to commmunicate the dataengine to take an action - The dataengine controls the process (start and stop it) [I need a custom dataengine and I cannot use the executable dataengine] - Multiple instances of the plasmoid and the dataengine share the configuaration via KConfigXT (Singleton) in this way when the user access the plasmoid configuration this is propagated to the dataengine and synced with other instances of the plasmoid Now I want to port this to plasma 5 but I'm facing huge difficulties. I've managed to port the dataengine, rewrite the CMakeFiles and I've partially rewritten the apple in QML. The problem now is how to manage the configuration. I know that the plasmoid configuration can be accessed via plasmoid.configuration and that I can map the fields in main.xml to the ui elements of the config dialog. The problem is how to synchronize this configuration with the other instances of the plasmoid (each plasmoid has his own configuration in plasma 5). How to pass this configuration to the dataengine? Any idea to do this in a simple way? I've tried to extend my plasmoid with a C++ plugin so that in C++ I can still use the old KConfigXT system in order to share a config file between the plasmoid and the dataengine. My current solution is pretty ugly but it works. It's the following: - When the configuration of the plasmoid is edited (I check this throught the signal userConfiguringChanged) I get the values from plasmoid.configuration and send it to the plasmoid C++ plugin (with a custom method writeConfig) - The plasmoid C++ plugin use KonfigXT to save the configuration and emits a signal myConfigChanged - The plasmoid run the service job so that the dataengine can act - From all the instances of the plasmoid I monitor the dataengine onNewData signal and when it is catched I read the configuration from the C++ plugin (with a custom method readConfig) and the plugin read it from disk In the configuration of all the instances of the plasmoid and the dataengine one are synchronized all the time. It's overly complicated though compared to the plasma 4 solution. Various doubt: 1) The plasmoid configuration system is explained here: http://aseigo.blogspot.dk/2013/02/elegant-plasmoid-configuration.html. Is it there any other page of documentation for this? 2) Which is the proper way to extend the QML plasmoid in C++.

Thank you. The problem was that I didn't run the plasmoid on the same
process.
What can be the best way to store a KProcess to the dataengine?
Idea 1:
Subclass the DataContainer class and store the KProcess in that class,
like the Executable dataEngine does. When the source is requested i
use addSource().
Idea 2:
Store the Kprocess as a private member of the dataengine.
When I ask for the Service, which is the best way to act on the KProcess?
Can I create a method to get the KProcess from the datacontainer? Or
this will break the semantic of the datacontainer, that is supposed to
just listen to signal updateRequested().
Example:
serviceForSource(const QString source)
{
container = query(source);
pointerToProcess = container.getPointerToProcess();
return new MyService(pointerToProcess,source);
}
The service will implement the operation start and stop that let
to pause and resume the process.
I think you can put KProcess in the dataengine as private member, and operate
it only with dataengine service, not to direct get the pointer.
What's your requirement by the way? I think there might be better solution for
your idea.

Accessing dataengine from different plasmoid
I need some explanation on how dataengines work. I can't understand if
the dataengine is shared among plasmoids or if every plasmoid creates
his own dataengine that retrive info.
My purpose is: I create a plasmoid, this plasmoid require a source to
a dataengine, this source is a pointer to a kprocess. After that I
create more plasmoids and they should access the same source to get
the pointer to the KProcess.
What I obtain when I call the dataEngine() method from a plasmoid is
that a new instance of a dataengine is created, so I cannot see source
requested by other plasmoid because the dataengines are distinct.
Example code:
Plasmoid:
init()
{
float num = rand();
QString source;
source.setNum(num);
dataEngine(engine)-connectSource(source,this);
qDebug() dataEngine(engine)-sources();
}
Dataengine:
sourceRequestEvent(const QString name)
{
setData(name,Active,1);
return true;
}
I expect that when I create the second plasmoid, the output of
sources() contains two sources, the one associated to the current
plasmoid and the one associated to the previously created plasmoid.
Instead the output is only one source.

Python plasmoid and configChanged()
Hi, I wrote a python plasmoid that needs to restart a program (redshift) everytime that the configuration is changed by the user (the plasmoid configChanged() function reacts to the signal). When the program is restarted the user is aware of it, because the screen color become white and than red again. But this is not a problem because the configuration is likely changed only few times. Although I've noticed that the signal configChanged() is emitted every time every part of the desktop is changed. So everytime I add a widget, lock/unlock widgets and so on, my plasmoid restarts the program. Is this the normal behaviour? Shouldn't the signal be emitted only when the configuration of my plasmoid is changed? ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel

Re: Python plasmoid and configChanged()
Connecting configChanged() explicitly was the cause of the problem apparently (I need to test it a little bit more). In many forum I've found that the people suggest to do this connection, maybe it's old stuff. Another strange thing I noticed is that when I click OK in the config dialog it does not close immediatly itself but it waits the end of the function configChanged() and since in my case this function takes about 10 seconds to complete the config dialog remain frozen for 10 seconds before closing. I tried a workaround to avoid this behaviour trying to emit a custom signal at the end of configChanged that activate the slow function, but even in this case the config dialog waits. Any idea on how to solve this? 2012/2/5 Aaron J.

Re: Review Request: Change activity by rolling the mouse wheel over the showActivityManager widget.
I understand and I agree with you. So I leave this work to someone more skilled by me. I'm still a newbie kde programmer. I'll close the review request. Cheers 2011/12/28 Sebastian Kügler se...@kde.org: On Tuesday, December 27, 2011 20:00:12 Simone Gaiarin wrote: Summarizing: 1)No redundant configuration interface should be added. 2)Only cycle through active activity is fine, but the dbus interface I still don't like this behaviour, as, even with a tooltip, it's still kind of hidden. A more explicit behaviour would be nicer. should provide a method to get the list of active activity to simplify the work, or it will be necessary to make a dbus call for every activity to check if it is active. But what is the sense of active or unactive activity? 3)The tooltip popup of the widget now says: Click to show the activity manager. We can add a description like: Scroll to switch activity. With this two changes who do not use activities can't do any mista since the widget does not do anything even if he scroll over it. Instead the activity aware user can know how the widget work from the tooltip. 4)Later, as a final improvement an osd with the activity name can be added. This is really what should be done, maybe like a kwin VD switching effect? What do you think? I'm not a great fan of pushing in the wheel-switches-activity, this should be improved in the correct way right away. We're so far away from feature freeze (4.9) that we don't really need a quick thing in.

Review Request: Change activity by rolling the mouse wheel over the showActivityManager widget.
To fix the two problem it is just necessary to add a configuration dialog to the plasmoid in a such way that the user must intentionally enable this feature before use it. What do you think about this solution? I'll work on it. ___ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
Mouse wheel support for the activity widget
Hi, I've implemented the functionality for changing the activity rolling the mouse wheel over the showActivityManager plasmoid. I like this functionality because I can put the widget on the panel and change the activity without doing 'show desktoproll over desktop' or 'open activity panel select activity close activity panel', I've attached a patch to the email. If you like it maybe you can merge it upstream.
