Hello, Some time ago I've started a porting of my plasmoids and dataengines to the newest Plasma and found some problems with it. I've ported a DataEngine w\o any problem, but I have issues about a Plasmoid. I've read API reference and look at examples from plasma-next and didn't find solutions.
First of all I want say that I don't plan to use QML/JS now and plan to develop of my plasmoids in pure C++. Firstly it is related to other project parts which is in C++/Qt and I don't want to use additional languages w\o any special necessity. Also as far as I understand the core plasmoid part (on which I have issue too) still shoul be written in C++. Also I try to avoid using deprecated functions. My questions are: 1. Is there any alternative to Plasma::PopupApplet? If there is not, is there a plan to implement it? 2. Is there a possibility to paint complex UI w\o using QML (in C++ code)? For example, I didn't find old Applet::setLayout() and PopupApplet::setWidget() methods. 3. How can I connect DataEngine to my Plasmoid? The old method which I used was dataEnigne(), some new applets use this method too, but it doesn't exist in the newest Plasma headers. Some new widgets such as nm-applet use Plasma::DataEngineManager::self()->engine() constuction, but Plasma::DataEngineManager class doesn't exist in the Plasma too =( If you need a reference to my plasmoid, example on which I'm working now may be found here [1] (it is more simple than the second one). 1. https://github.com/arcan1s/netctl-gui -- Sincerely yours, Evgeniy Alekseev e-mail: darkarca...@mail.ru ICQ: 407-398-235 Jabber: arca...@jabber.ru
