Review request for KDE Frameworks.


Changes
-------

Use QCoreApplication::applicationDirPath() in stead and modify the error message.

I'm not sure my CMake Fu is up to the task of adding ${KDE_INSTALL_FULL_KSERVICETYPES5DIR} + path option...


Repository: kcoreaddons


Description
-------

Without this patch kcoreaddons_desktop_to_json() will not find the destop file.

On windows GenericDataLocation returns "C:/Users/<USER>/AppData/Local" or "C:/ProgramData". That is not a path that contains any destip files ;)

This patch adds AppLocalDataLocation to the seach if the previous search does not return a match. 

Another option would be to hardcode the absolute path to all places that uses kcoreaddons_desktop_to_json(), but that does not feel too nice...

What other options do we have?


Diffs (updated)
-----

  src/lib/plugin/desktopfileparser.cpp 1122af8 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126618/diff/


Testing
-------

KTextEditor compiles again on windows


Thanks,

Kåre Särs
