To remove the redundant checks i used a bool variable *usingTemplate* which is true only when a resource file is being used. Based on its truth value connections is made to the slot *_k_slotOtherDesktopFile* where the temporary file will be removed.

Calling *executeStrategy* from *_k_slotOtherDesktopFile* is useless because *m_src* is empty(there will be no file handling). So i removed this call and added QFile::remove.

The method *getFileExtension* will query the file extension and will return it with a leading dot. The variable *m_fileExtension* will store the file extention. Once the RealFile dialog is accepted the extension is appended to *m_text*. Additionally, before appending a check is performed to determine if the user has already entered the extension with the filename or not.

> Fix 1: When creating a new file, if a file with the default name already exist then a new name is suggested by *KIO::suggestName*. Now this works fine until the scheme of file's url is "file" but in case the scheme is "desktop" (*like when the url in dolphin is set to desktop:/ or "Folder View Settings > Location" is set to desktop:/*) then the check for file's existence fails because *QFile::exists* doesn't understand the "desktop" scheme. So *KIO::suggestName* is not called and no new filename is suggested in case a file with the same filename already exist. To fix this i used *KNewFileMenuPrivate::mostLocalUrl* in *KNewFileFileMenu::executeRealFileorDir* which will resolve "desktop:/" to the user's desktop path.

This happens (*inside KNewFileFileMenu::executeRealFileorDir*) because the filename is read from the *Name* section of the desktop file. To fix this, read the URL(the url is in *templatePath*) from the desktop file, determine the file extension from there and append it in the filename.

The bug occurs because KPropertiesDialog is initialized (*inside KNewFileMenuPrivate::executeOtherDesktopFile*) with path of a resource file. Now KPropertiesDialog only show properties if the file is a local file(i guess). Thats why  clicking on "Link to Application" and then clicking 'ok' shows an error message . To Fix this i used QTemporaryFile to copy the contents of the application template shipped with kio and then initialize KPropertiesDialog with the temporary files' path.
