This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for KDE Frameworks, Àlex Fiestas and Gregor Mi.


Repository: frameworkintegration


Description
-------

The following QPA integration does not work as expected:

    QStringList nameFilterList = QStringList() << "c (*.cpp)" << "h (*.h)";
    dialog.setNameFilters(nameFilterList);

    QString selectNameFilter("h (*.h)");
    dialog.selectNameFilter(selectNameFilter);
//  QCOMPARE(dialog.selectedNameFilter(), selectNameFilter); // (1) always fails, no matter what

    dialog.show();
    QCOMPARE(dialog.selectedNameFilter(), selectNameFilter); // (2) currently also fails, Qt patch required

The problem is described in detail in:
http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-frameworks-devel/2014-February/010691.html


The Qt patches that make (2) work are as follows:

However, the QCOMPARE in (1) is still an open issue. And no fix in sight...

Ok to commit this to frameworksintegration (and therewith make it unstable?)

Testing
-------

The attached unit test currently fails due to a bug in the Qt QPA.

With the Qt patch above, (2) in the unit test passes, so one is able to call QFileDialog::selectNameFilter().
However, (1) remains broken.


Thanks,
