On Sunday 08 July 2007, you wrote:<br>> basically, i was wondering if you had any particular<br>> reservations/comments/whatever as to the use of a plasma-inspired<br>> contextview in amarok, mostly because you *are* plasma :) i'm not planning

<br><br>i think it makes lots of sense.. it turn out to be some very cool stuff =)<br>i'll be making libplasma publicly available in 4.1 (e.g. by guaranteeing<br>binary compat; we already install headers with dptrs and whatnot but there

<br><br>for 4.0 you could also just put libplasma into amarok itself and compile it in<br>as a static lib; with an 'svn extern' entry in the amarok tree you could then<br>track libplasma from kdebase without having an actual kdebase dependency.
</blockquote><br>thank you for the prompt reply :) the compiling of a static plasma library directly in the amarok source looks interesting, but i'm not sure if we'll need the full resources/complexity of plasma to justify it. either way, i'll start doing it bit-by-bit and if it turns out that i'm pretty much bringing all of it in to amarok, i'll go ahead and svn extern it and compile libplasma statically.
