[Kde-games-devel] KMahjongg frameworks branch

[Frederik Schwarzer]

Hi Ian,

with respect to kdelibs4support, I read in a thread on this list, 
where you discussed the use of KIO with Jeremy.
https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kde-games-devel/2015-January/011546.html

If I got the correctly, you kind of voted for not keeping the network 
saving ability in KMahjongg.

>From the code (although I am not familiar with saving/loading) it 
seems that KMahjongg is currently able to load a file from a network 
location but not to save one to a network location.

One of the rare things I could find regarding porting away from 
NetAccess::download, is the Umbrello code, where this one line was 
replaced by ~15 lines of checking this and checking that.

Of course we could do the same as Umbrello but since KMahjongg can 
only read from the network, and that network locations for games might 
be a very rare case, I think it is reasonable to remove network 
loading/saving abilities.

Or does QFileDialog already deliver that? Here it does not show 
network folders.

Opinions?

Regards,
Frederik
