Debian

I want to preface this by stating this is not the code in the official Diamond repository . I have been working on some enhancements/new features and am simply offering this up to get a bit of feedback. If you wish to see what I've been working on you can read about it here: https://www.logikalsolut...

Re: Linux library naming convention

Bye-the-bye, this is also how update-alternatives works in large part. Nice write-up on that here:

I stumbled onto this creating the Diamond Debian and wanted to bring it up for consideration. Hunspell has the exact same problem so CopperSpice shouldn't feel alone. roland@roland-U18CS-VirtualBox:~/Projects/diamond_debian_release$ ldd diamond linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fffb3329000) libCsGui1.7.so => ...

Re: QML

No QML is one of the reasons I'm seriously looking at CopperSpice for several clients. Putting it bluntly, QML is a hand polished turd. Besides the massive security issues, you have not saddled a battery powered device with a native compiled event system, QML "engine" and JavaScript "...

Re: Documentation issue

Okay, I looked again. You are correct. Kind of dangerous with things like that though. Lots of people do what I did and "just look for the code."

Documentation issue

Don't really know where to put this so putting here. Might be fixed. I have version 1.5.3 of documentation as 1.7 was not yet available for download. https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/plaintextinsert.png The example code is calling insertText() not insertPlainText...

QFile::copy() not working?

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and CopperSpice was built from source within the past week or so. roland@roland-amd-desktop:~/Projects/cs_hello_debug$ ls -al /home/roland/Diamond_Backups/ total 8 drwxrwxr-x 2 roland roland 4096 Sep 6 16:34 . drwxr-xr-x 42 roland roland 4096 Sep 6 10:14 .. roland@roland-amd-...

Re: Containers and parentage

Thank you for your response. I was specifically wondering about QGagets. CS_GADGET( Themes ) Actually, more than wondering a bit about this declared in class header QMap <QString, Themes> m_themes; in class source Themes *theme = new Themes( lst[fld++].trimmed(), true ); // name // do some stuff to ...

Containers and parentage

Perhaps I'm just having a brain fart? Perhaps I had a brain fart the other day when I left a comment in the code that sent me down this path this morning.

Re: QTemporaryFile bug

Just an FYI, QTemporaryDir works well. void Task::run() { // Do processing here qDebug() << "Hello World!"; QTemporaryDir d; if (d.isValid()) { qDebug() << "temporary dir name: " << d.path(); } else { qDebug() << "failed to create temporary dir"; } emit finished(); } ro...
