The Packager

The syntax I'd like to came up with is:

Code

Plasmagik packager; packager.setPackageType(...); packager.setSomething(); packager.show();

or something like that --Ruphy 18:14, 12 March 2007 (CET).

Plasmagik inherits QDialog

This task is mostly done, this is the API I came out with:

Packaging control API

  • Plasmagik::PackageType -> Predefined list of package types. See packaging.txt for the complete list.
  • setPackageType(Plasmagik::PackageType, bool clearFirst) If clearFirst == true, clearProgrammingLanuages() will be called.
  • setProgrammingLanguages(QString/QStringList languages) If languages is QString, languages are separated by '|'. It will call clearProgrammingLanguages().
  • QString/QStringList programmingLanguages()
  • addProgrammingLanguages(QString/QStringList languages) Same as setProgammingLanguages, but it won't call clearProgrammingLanguages() first, and will add languages to the end.
  • clearProgrammingLanguages() It will remove any language previously set.
  • setIcon(QIcon icon) Sets the icon for the dialog
  • setPackageExtension(QString extension) Sets the provided extension as the one used when saving the package. It will be passed as-is to KFileDialog.
  • setText(Plasmagik::Label label, QString text) You can customize GUI strings with that function

Improvements proposed

  • Rename ProgrammingLanguages --> packageType, or such
  • setPackageExtension(QString extension) with mimetype instead of string?

Networking control API

  • TODO!
