announce: qmdilib 0.0.1

[elcuco]

Hi,

I update the library to V0.0.2. Now most flicker issues have been resolved. I added some demos which explain how to build the code into static and dynamic libraries (at least on Linux).

The code has not been tested very much, this is why I am calling it "pre".

The released version is now 0.0.2, on the last post it was a pre release.

The code should work also on win32 now.

I just released version 0.0.3 now. The changelog is:

• new feature: QWorkspace children are also checked for qmdiClient interface,
  feature coded by Nox PasNox <pasnox@gmail.com>
• new feature: merge point for qmdiActionGroup
• new class: qmdiWorkspace, a qmdiServer based on QWorkspace
• core refactoring: qmdiClient does not contain QObject *self any more
• code refactoring: qmdiServer now contains a pointer to the host (was in qmdiTabWidget)
• code refactoring: demos should be easier to read, and hopefully maintain
• removed most internal frames from all widgets in demos, the demos will look nicer
• all the documentation has been spell checked

You can get the source as usual at:

Do you plan do provide integration, as every lib should IMHO ? I basically mean :
* An "install" target
* A feature file (.prf) so that using qmdilib would be as simple as : "CONFIG += qmdilib"

I am working on version 0.0.5, and I am releasing a developer snapshot. Meanwhile the code is extended a little and the license is now LGPL 2/3.

This is the changelog so far

• code is released now under a dual license: (L)GPL 2 or 3
• code refactoring: qmdiClient::mdiClientFileName() should be used instead of old "filename"
• code refactoring: qmdiClient::name has been renamed to qmdiClient::mdiClientName
• code refactoring: include files for qmdiActionGroup and qmdiActionGroupList changed from
  "actiongroup.h" and "actiongrouplist.h" into "qmdiactiongroup.h" and qmdiactiongrouplist.h"
  Transitional includes have been added, to be removed next version, please update your code
• new feature: qmdiClients are notified of (un)merged from a host
• new feature: qmdiTabWidget will hide the tabbar if the number of tabs is less then 2
• new feature: when qmdiHost adds a qmdiClient if that client is also a widget, add it's menus+toolbars actions to the widget.
• new feature: you can tell qmdiHost not to update it's GUI by changing qmdiHost::updateMenusAndToolBars

The plugin demo is more functional in this development snapshot but still not at the level I want it to be, this is one of my focuses for the 0.0.5 version. I hope to get also QScript plugins, and whatever more I find it needed.

I have not uploaded the file to kde-apps not qt-apps, so you can download the code from the projects GoogleCode page: http://qtedit4.googlecode.com/files/qmdilib-r304.tar.gz

Edit:
It would be a good idea to link to a page which describes what this project is... Here is the documentation page of this project (more documentation is available in the downloaded file): http://code.google.com/p/qtedit4/wiki/qmdilib
