Summing up what we said on IRC: - if we want to release a lib or two as Qt-only (e.g. odf, filters...), we'd benefit from using Qt tools or our own copy (the latter would also address what frinring has noted) - but QAbstractMessageHandler comes from qt xmlpatterns, and isn't particularly used across Qt, and we do not want xmlpatterns dependency because of QAbstractMessageHandler - so our own improved copy would be probably best - there's also KMessage and KMessageHandler in kdelibs somewhat conveniently integrated with KMessageBox APIs, but: -- it's in KDElibs so for Qt-only libs we'd need a copy anyway -- has the flaw that it does not offer the option of a 'reply' on the message when reply is needed (can be solved, again, in our own implementation) On a productive side: I'd volunteer to provide a tool suitable globally for calligra (starting by moving it out of Kexi). We need a lib for such code: - in Qt 4 version depenent on QtCore, maybe on QtGUI (but for things like QColor, not QWidget). - in Qt 5 version depenent on QtCore, maybe on QtGUI but not on QtWidgets. -- regards / pozdrawiam, Jaroslaw Staniek Kexi & Calligra & KDE | http://calligra.org/kexi | http://kde.org Qt Certified Specialist | http://qt-project.org http://www.linkedin.com/in/jstaniek _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
