Thank you Aaron, It's working now (using absolute path to the script file!) :)
I'm trying to add Plasma::Package support to the dataengine, but...
there is another problem here! I've inherited from Plasma::PackageStructure
(Just like comic_package in comic dataengine)... but I still can't install my
translator plugin with plasmapkg:
Could not find a suitable installer for package of type Plasma/Translator
I think there is a problem in my CMakeLists.txt file.... I'm not sure though!
(there is no good tutorial on plasma packages too! at least I couldn't find any
in techbase!)
btw, this is my CMakeLists file:
project(plasma-translator)
find_package(KDE4 REQUIRED)
include(KDE4Defaults)
add_definitions (${QT_DEFINITIONS} ${KDE4_DEFINITIONS})
include_directories(
${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}
${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}
${KDE4_INCLUDES}
)
set(translator_engine_SRCS translator-engine.cpp translator.cpp)
kde4_add_plugin(plasma_engine_translator ${translator_engine_SRCS})
target_link_libraries(plasma_engine_translator ${KDE4_KDECORE_LIBS}
${KDE4_PLASMA_LIBS} ${KDE4_KDEUI_LIBS} ${KDE4_KROSSUI_LIBS} ${KDE4_KIO_LIBS}
${KDE4_KROSSCORE_LIBS})
install(TARGETS plasma_engine_translator
DESTINATION ${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR})
install(FILES plasma-engine-translator.desktop
DESTINATION ${SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR})
install( FILES plasma-translationprovider.desktop DESTINATION
${SERVICETYPES_INSTALL_DIR} )
kde4_add_plugin( plasma-packagestructure-translator translatorpackage.cpp )
target_link_libraries( plasma-packagestructure-translator ${KDE4_KDEUI_LIBS}
${KDE4_PLASMA_LIBS} )
install( TARGETS plasma-packagestructure-translator DESTINATION
${PLUGIN_INSTALL_DIR} )
install( FILES plasma-packagestructure-translator.desktop DESTINATION
${SERVICES_INSTALL_DIR} )
Thanks again :)
