Talk:Development/Documentation

I think that a number of the articles this page is linking to should rather be under Development/Tutorials and the scope of this page should be reduced. A page called Devlopment/Documentation seems like it could cover everything --milliams 16:18, 19 February 2007 (CET)

Ok, let's go through the list:

Makefile.am Howto

should go to Development/Tutorials/KDE3

Finding out about KDE's installation - kde-config

already exists here

KConfig Module HOWTO

should go to Development/Tutorials/KDE3

Debugging HOWTO

already exists here

Driving Konqueror from the command prompt

already exists here

Memory leak hunting HOWTO

should be cleaned up and integrated here. maybe I even did that already

KDE Internationalization (i18n) HOWTO

already exists here for kde4, and if at all should be in Development/Tutorials/KDE3 for kde3

Porting to Qt 4 and KDE 4 Porting Guide

partly exists already here, see also the discussion!

KDE API Reference Documentation HOWTO

already exists here

KDE 3 Porting Guide

do not port at all (kde2 is deprecated! really), or put it into Development/Tutorials/KDE3

and:

Binary Compatibility Issues with C++

already exists here

Common Programming Mistakes

hey, the first one we have not ported yet. should be moved for kde4 into Development/Tutorials (TODO)

KDE Developer's Checklist

look svery old. if migrated, please fix it for kde3 or even kde4 (TODO)

Designing Qt-Style C++ APIs

we don't need it. the link is already mentioned in Policies/Library_Code_Policy

Shared Memory Notes

indeed, we don't have that ported, yet. I think it makes sense to add it to Development/Tutorials/Debugging as a short article (TODO)

What is Scripty?

indeed a TODO :)

The rest of the links are already in the Tutorials section (at least the important ones).

As you can see, I/we have put a *lot* of efforts into this. I don't see a reason right now to have Development/Documentation at all. I'll remove it again, if you guys agree :)

so we have 4 TODOs if we count the developer's checklist (which seems really old indeed, but useful to have?) ... i'm in favour of getting those done as per your notes and agree that this page can go...

Sorry about the duplication then, I just started so I didn't realize that many of the articles had already been migrated, please feel free to rearrange as you like. --Mpyne 00:18, 21 February 2007 (CET)

That's fine. I hope we did not scare you off, though! We want people to participate after all :) somehow we just have to communicate ;) - Greetings --Dhaumann 01:47, 21 February 2007 (CET)
