Fwd: Ideas regarding equalizer support

[Ian Monroe]

Artur,
I´m on vacation for this week so I mostly don´t have internet. I
forwarded your message to some fine people who can help. :)

Knee-jerk reaction: 1 and 3 are horrible ideas, so that leaves 2 and
4. A possibility for 4 is to just to save a bunch of stuff using
KConfig. It probably would be straightforward.

Dear Ian,

as you may be aware I'm developing now equalizer support for Amarok.
I have a little jams :

I wish to store equalizer preset in amarok config.
However - the convenient way to handle the presets will be  QMap<
QString, QList<int> > is not supported by KCoreConfigSkeleton (no such
item to handle it directly).
So I'm seeking for advice which solution will be better in that case:
1) drop support for storing new presets (only predefined preset with
possibility to change name/settings but totaly limited number)
2) store it using old xml way (personally I think this is bad idea)
3) derive a new class from KCoreConfigSkeleton to support QMap<
QString, QList<int> >
4) other ideas ?

And one more:
Amarok uses action classes in main window menus - how the particular
action class can be reached from other part of program (for.ex -
update action list).

Best regards

Artur Szymiec
