Status

This change has been marked as submitted.


Review request for KDE Frameworks and Albert Astals Cid.


Changes
-------

Submitted with commit b0c8fd8e64f6e02b781270e548c684a06e3e2948 by David Faure to branch master.


Repository: kservice


Description
-------

(the options are kept to avoid breaking hypothetic callers, but do nothing anymore)

--checkstamps was a timestamp comparison to find out if kbuildsycoca should
do nothing. Let's not just call it in that case ;) A similar timestamp check
is in ksycoca.cpp since recently.

--nocheckfiles was an experimental and marked dangerous option,
to speed up KDE startup by only checking the global header (lang and dirs),
but not checking for modified desktop files. I guess the idea was for
binary packages to always ensure that ksycoca is updated. That's a very
long term plan with a fdo desktop-file-index, but not really applicable until then
(what if you install something from sources, on a distro set up that way...).

Testing
-------

kservice unittests pass (but they don't really test these unused options ;)


Thanks,

David Faure
