Summary
-------
Hi!
With commit #1019443 to kdebase/runtime/kioslave/network (done today) I added a
new entry for "Plasma service" to the DNSSD (zeroconf) backend for the
network:/ kioslave, which means that network:/ should now show a nice Plasma
icon for such services and have a link "plasma:/hostname:port/name" connected
to the entry.
(Beware, you need to restart kded after updating your install, as the kioslave
is feeded by a kded module, which has the data in the binary (yes, TODO :) )!
Perhaps you even have to load the module manually, the automatic load is
reported to sometimes fail:
"qdbus org.kde.kded /kded loadModule networkwatcher").
Now, the listing in network:/ is one thing, one also wants to deal with the
service item in Konqueror, e.g. click on it or drag'n'drop it to the Plasma
workspace. The same happens if the plasma:/ url is used in web pages or emails
("Son, here you can connect to my Dinner-is-ready plasmoid, Yours, Mum"), or
isn't this supposed to be done?
With KIO there is the need of a .protocol file which describes what the
plasma:/ protocol is about (see patch for prototype). AFAIK for such protocols
not starting a kioslave, but a helper program ("helper=true"), that one needs
to be defined here in the "exec=" line. So what would the helper program be for
plasma:/ urls? For Drag'nDrops this entry is ignored, BTW, and just the url
passed.
