Issue 3

23rd April 2006 by Danny Allen

This Week...

KDE 4 porting continues at great pace, with more applications able to be compiled with CMake daily. Portability fixes for non-X11 platforms. KDiskManager, a KDE 4 application for disk management - based on Solid - is imported into KDE SVN.
Andreas Nicolai, the maintainer and lead programmer of KTouch, a touch-typing tutoring application in kde-edu, starts a consultation regarding the future of KTouch:
Hi folks,

I'd like to announce a new KTouch version (so far the last in the KDE 3.5 series) available on the sourceforge page: http://ktouch.sourceforge.net

I won't be able to contribute much until summer, but if you find the time to download and try it out, I would like to collect some opinions and suggestions regarding:
  • what should be improved to make it better usable for children
  • what features are missing (see list below for planned features)
  • compared to other touch typing programs, what are the shortcomings of KTouch?
  • what do you think about the lectures? How could they be improved?
  • KTouch typing games: what kind of games can you think of (I had a few suggestions already, see below)
As a small info ahead, here are the features I plan to have in KTouch 2.0 which will be in KDE4:
  • better keyboard drawing engine to support different keyboard layouts/character sets, also more keys can be printed on each key
  • progressive build-up of the keyboard: only the keys that are known in the current level are drawn colored, others are still grey (thus helping kids to focus on the keys they should know so far)
  • games:
    • balloon game: balloons with character draw on them fly up, press the correct key and ***bang***
    • block game: single colored blocks with characters fall down the screen in a grid, pressing keys with the characters makes blocks disappear, press them in a correct order to align 4 blocks of the same color to get extra points
  • tests: for school kids and teachers, you can setup a test by defining the text to type (lecture and levels), and an optional time limit
  • during the test you cannot change settings like auto-level-advance or manual-level advance or anything else (to avoid cheating and give teachers the means to evaluate kids).
Feel free to send me mails with your suggestions... I would like to get KTouch as good as possible for the KDE4 release.

Andreas
If you would like to take part in this consultation on the future of KTouch, send an email to: comments@commit-digest.org. I will make sure all messages get to Andreas.

When browsing this week's selected commits, you may notice a new box under each commit message introducing the latest feature, diffs. As it is often difficult to grasp the purpose and scale of a commit from reading the commit message alone, each commit now has a extended information page (accessible by clicking the revision number). In the case of a visual change to KDE (for example, icons, wallpapers, and yes, even .ui files!), an extra link is provided where you can see the changed files side-by-side.

The best example of this new feature in this issue can be seen here.

I don't like typos introduced during a message freeze.

Thorsten Roeder committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdeedu/kstars/kstars:

* more robust file reading
* fixing a potential mem leak
* runs with qt4 basically

Diffs: 1, 2, 3 Revision 531015

Graphics

Gilles Caulier committed changes in /trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/libs/dimg/dimg.cpp:

digikam from trunk : DImg API to detect image file formatn we parse file extension in first, and in second, we parse file header.

This way is mandatory because some TIFF files are detected like RAW files by dcraw::parse method.

Please, update svn and give me a feedback (:=)))...
CCMAIL: digikam-devel@kde.org, frank@birnstiel.org, dudasg@freemail.hu

Michael Pyne committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdegraphics/kmrml/kmrml/lib/kmrml_config.cpp:

More suspicious code fixes. In this case two char* are inadvertently compared rather than the
string (which probably worked since they were the same strings in the common case when
comparing against localhost).

Francisco J. Cruz committed changes in /trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam/utilities/setup:

When Color Management setting is turned off/on, values for icc preferences are "remembered" now. I hope this fix this bug: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=125732

KDE Base

Paulo Moura Guedes committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/kdeui/kkeyserver.h:

Don't use X11 includes on Windows.

Paulo Moura Guedes committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/libltdl/ltdl.c:

Export this methods; needed for Windows.

Tanner Lovelace committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/cmake/modules/FindQt4.cmake:

Move windowsystem check earlier in file and use the result
to short circuit checks for Motif on non X11 platforms.

Paulo Moura Guedes committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/libltdl:

Ups, there is a ltdl header file so move the exports to there.
This is currently a mess, with the mix of LT_SCOPE and KDECORE_EXPORT. Only touched the needed symbols, I guess it's better for now.

Stephan Kulow committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdebase/kdmlib:

don't crash if the theme is incomplete

David Faure committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdelibs/kdecore/ktimezones.cpp:

Don't start running weird grep+awk commands on a directory that doesn't even exist (!)
I got this on Mac OS X. It has a /usr/share/zoneinfo/, but no zone.tab in there, nor anywhere else.
It has no /usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/src at all.

With this commit, m_zoneinfoDir is correctly set to that dir even though there's no zone.tab,
but I guess this won't really work? (I still get unit test failures)
Is it possible to support /usr/share/zoneinfo even without a zone.tab? Surely other
programs (from BSD, ported to Mac OS X) must manage somehow...

David Faure committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdebase/konqueror:

Fix a number of QString vs KUrl confusions which made "konqueror $HOME" abort on startup
(due to the KUrl assert to detect such mixups).

Diffs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 Revision 531485
Leo Savernik committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdelibs/khtml/rendering/render_text.cpp:

Fixed text mutation at selection boundaries for complex scripts.

Big thanks to Simon Hausmann who did all the grunt work. I applied some
optimisations to restrict clipping and double repaints to those inline
text boxes which contain selection boundaries.

BUG: 101009

Aaron J. Seigo committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdebase/kicker/libkicker/panelbutton.cpp:

draw button text with the proper color
see if anyone moans about on-hover arrows for menu buttons ;)

KDE-PIM

David Jarvie committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdepim/kalarm/traywindow.cpp:

Bug 125675: Don't show disabled alarms in system tray tooltip alarm list

Thorsten Staerk committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdepim/ktnef/lib/ktnefparser.cpp:
Ismail Onur Filiz committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdepim/akregator/src/akregator_part.rc:

Make the order of the items in aKregator settings menu comply with rest of Kontact.
Namely "Configure Akregator..." should come right before "Configure Kontact...", not earlier.

David Faure committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdepim/kmail/kmfolder.cpp:

readConfig must be done before registerWithMessageDict, since that one can call writeConfig in some circumstances
(readFolderIds() returned -1, so invalidateFolder() was called,
which calls open/close, and close() calls updateIndex()+writeConfig() when mAutoCreateIndex is true.)

This should fix the frequent loss of folder settings.

David Jarvie committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdepim/kalarm/alarmevent.cpp:

Fix alarms potentially not being redisplayed after crash

Volker Krause committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdepim/kaddressbook/kabcore.cpp:

Fix adding of new contacts.

I wonder how many of these small porting errors are out there...

Office

Boudewijn Rempt committed changes in /branches/koffice/1.5/koffice/filters/krita/magickdeskdesk:

Don't support saving as bmp, since we can only save type 3 bmp's that nobody can read.

Ariya Hidayat committed changes in /branches/koffice/1.5/koffice/kspread/kspread_cell.cc:

as fallback solution: set the cell text if no text is specified with <text:p>
at least for percentage and number format
this fixes some problem with importing Excel files

Adrian Page committed changes in /trunk/koffice:

- Fix krita's ImageMagick and raw filters.
- Add a check for ImageMagick that extends the standard CMake one to look for the headers and library.

Konqueror

Frans Englich committed changes in /trunk/kdenonbeta/kdom/xpath/tests/Makefile.am:

Undefine QT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII QT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII such that runtskxpath compiles with KUnitTest from kdelibs4_snapshot revision 495795.

This is only a temporary workaround until we remove tests/runtskxpath. The plan is that KXQTS should take over all regression testing such that this horrible thing can go away(and then we don't need KUnitTest or Qt 3 compat anymore). But I would like replacements to be in place first, namely:

1. Some last fixes to kxqts/runsuite(got that locally more or less), such that it can run a whole test suite even though some of the tests crashes. It's needed for the XQTS.
2. A command line utility in xpath/something/, that allows one to run queries `something --query myXQuery.xq`. It's simple to write, but one needs to come up with a name first..

Harald Sitter committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src:

I removed the application/x-ogg mimetype, since it is a generic one and therefore applies for any ogg file, even for theora - we also got audio/x-vorbis in the list, which should only apply for vorbis.
Please report appearing problems

Andreas Silberstorff committed changes in /trunk/playground/multimedia/kalva/src:

Michael Pyne committed changes in /branches/KDE/3.5/kdeutils/khexedit:

Fix issues with KHexEdit pointed out by Christoph's suspicious code check.

With CHexValidator I was unable to bring myself to simply fix the immediate bug
as the code is almost scary what with sprintf() everywhere. So I fixed the
design as well.

I have tested, everything seems to work properly, would appreciate if others would
test as well however.

I will forwardport to trunk.

only once by slave if added multiple times
(not relevant to startup speed)

Gilles Caulier committed changes in /trunk/extragear/graphics/digikam:

digikam from trunk :

- New Image Properties side bar tab to display image resume.
- DMetadata memory optimization and new methods to get photograph resume from image.
- Disable album item tool tips by default.

NOTES:

- In this new resume sidebar tab, all digikam tags properties aren't displayed. i think it's redondant with Comments & tags sidebar tab. Because this one is very easy to read by non-photographers users, i think it's not necessary to duplicate here these informations, and this way simpilfy source code about to share resume sidebar tab implementation between showfoto and digiKam (there is no database depency).

- Album Item Info tool tips is now disable by default. This view is now very uncomplete about metadata. Something need to be done here to improve it (or we can remove this view ???)

TODO : in image editor, if an image is saved to a new file, all image properties side tabs aren't updated (Marcel ?).

All constructive viewpoints are welcome !

we can get rid of all the DBL_DIG stuff in koffice.

KDE-PIM

David Faure committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdepim:

Remove cruft - none of those things are used inside kdepim
(they got copy/pasted to all kde modules...)

Diffs: 1, 2, 3 Revision 531817
Till Adam committed changes in /branches/kdepim/proko2/kdepim/korganizer:

Don't reload the KConfig object of the standard addressbook for every
incidence during loading, by caching the "thatIsMe" entry. This should
speed up calendar loading significantly, but it means that if they user
changes their "thatIsMe" entry in the addressbook, KOrganizer won't
realize that until the next restart. Given the spectacularly low frequency
with which that is expected to happen, I think that's worth it. I can't
fix it at the root, since that is in kdelibs. Will try to fix it in
kdelibs 3.5, though, obviously. (proko2 issue 1118)

Office

Thomas Zander committed changes in /trunk/playground/office/flake:

Refactor painting.
I moved all object based code out of KoGraphicBase (into KoRectGfxObj)
I split the paint() into different methods to limit code duplication and
moved painting ordering and logic to the KoObjectManager.
Distinct advantage is that paint methods are far shorter so we reuse code :)
See comments in KoGraphicBase.h for explenations of the paint methods.

Multimedia

Seb Ruiz committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok/src:

Refactor some of the podcast settings:
* Usability wise, it makes no sense to set the settings for the folder. Will be replaced by "configure sub channels"
* 'Reset' button applies default settings to the channel, not parent settings
* Some context menu cleanup

Diffs: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 Revision 530325
Sebastian Trueg committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/k3b/dvd+rw-tools:

removed local copy of the dvd+rw-tools. Development of dvd+rw-tools
continued and keeping a copy here makes no sense anymore.

Shane King committed changes in /trunk/extragear/multimedia/amarok:

Reworking of the audioscrobbler submit code:

* Tracks from a media device scan be submitted to last.fm immediately, without waiting for tracks to be played in amaroK. Thanks to Iain Benson for the patch.
* Submissions now automatically retry on failure (with incremental backoff) without the user needing to play a new track. Additionally, if there's more than 10 items in the queue, an additional submit is scheduled after the INTERVAL given by last.fm.
* When calculating play times for media devices, they are only backdated as much as they need to be to submit, to reduce the number of overlapping play time conflicts with other programs that might have submitted data to last.fm.

Fix compilation on Mac OS X

David Faure committed changes in /trunk/koffice/libs/kotext/KoTextIterator.cpp:

libs/ compiles on Mac OS X now; my version of gcc just didn't like the different types
for the a?b:c operator... fix looks ugly, but this is all temporary anyway (Q3ValueList)
