Hello, as suggested by Aaron in a previous discussion, I am having a look at the calculator runner with the purpose of extending the capabilities of the runner by using libqalculate when it is available, otherwise falling back to the currently used 'qscript' method. So here are my questions (sorry if some of them are stupid ones...): * how should I detect the presence of qalculate on the system? Should I let CMake find the library and then use the preprocessor (#ifdef, ....) thus making it a compile-time optional dependency? * it was mentioned that thread safety is important in this case. How can I find out if libqalculate is thread safe? * I think it would be nice if the runner respects the same settings of the plasmoid (if it's being used). Is there a way to do this, apart from reading the plasma-desktop-appletsrc file?
BTW, while looking at the code I found a bug in the runner. The expression 'e+' is interpreted as '^' instead of '*10^'. So if you type 2e+2 you currently get the wrong result (4 instead of 200). The same applies to 'e-'. _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
