           Summary: findMethod() does not work for methods in QGlobalSpace
           Product: bindings
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kde-bindings at kde.org
        ReportedBy: chrisburel at gmail.com


Version:            (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

It appears at first glance that the smoke findMethod() function should find a
method regardless of which smoke object that method is defined in.  For
instance, qt_Smoke can find the method MessageBox::enableAllMessages, even
though it is defined in kdeui_Smoke.  This isn't the case for methods defined
in QGlobalSpace, because that "class" is marked as being internal to each of
qt_Smoke, kdecore_Smoke, and kdeui_Smoke, among others.  This makes it rather
difficult to find methods defined in the QGlobalSpace namespace, because you
have to know which Smoke object to use before you do the lookup.

I wrote this small program to illustrate the problem:

#include "smoke.h"
#include "qt_smoke.h"
#include "kdecore_smoke.h"
#include "kdeui_smoke.h"

int main() {
    init_qt_Smoke();
    init_kdecore_Smoke();
    init_kdeui_Smoke();

    Smoke::ModuleIndex method1 = qt_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace", "ki18n$"
);
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method2 = kdecore_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace",
"ki18n$" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method3 = kdeui_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace",
"ki18n$" );

    Smoke::ModuleIndex method4 = qt_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox",
"enableAllMessages" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method5 = kdecore_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox",
"enableAllMessages" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method6 = kdeui_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox",
"enableAllMessages" );

    if( ( method1 == method2 ) &&
        ( method2 == method3 ) &&
        ( method3 == method1 ) ) {
        printf( "QGlobalSpace::ki18n$           found from all smoke objects\n"
);
    }
    else {
        printf( "QGlobalSpace::ki18n$           NOT found from all smoke
objects\n" );
    }

    if( ( method4 == method5 ) &&
        ( method5 == method6 ) &&
        ( method6 == method4 ) ) {
        printf( "KMessageBox::enableAllMessages found from all smoke objects\n"
);
    }
    else {
        printf( "KMessageBox::enableAllMessages NOT found from all smoke
objects\n" );
    }
}
