[Kde-java] new KKey bindings generation

[KJ P]

Hello Richard

Thanks.  I was hopeing I did not mess it up to much.

I have started working on the KStdAction as that one is causing a compile 
error.  That one changed a lot (well at least to the 4 un-experienced eyes 
of mine).  It now uses KActionCollection which now has to be generated and I 
have not found it yet.  All the method signatures have changed as well.  
Instead of passing a QWidget of parent it now expects a KActionCollection 
and I do not even know what that is yet.

This one might be out of my depth at this time but I am going to take a stab 
at it.

I am really anxious to get this compiled because I have a telnet 5250 
emulator that I have written and want to put under KDE.  I am hoping it will 
work out some of the linux keyboard problems and a speed issue.  This will 
include a new project for an IO Slave to the AS400 like IBM's Client access 
under windows.  Was trying to use DCOP to talk between the IO-slave and my 
java program but have decided to use sockets until DCOP comes up to speed 
with the serialization.  I am hoping this will bring a whole lot of new 
corporate users to KDE.

There are a lot of people that I have talked to from doing this project that 
want to change to linux but because of the lack of tools can not.  The 
emulator, because it is written in java, has received a lot of users for the 
Mac OS X as well.  Still there is a lack of speed  as a result of using 
swing.

Well anyway I went and bought some more candles today - lately have been 
burning them from both ends - so hope to have something with the KStdAction 
at some point.  I am going to learn this if it kills us both ;-)

Thanks again


Kenneth
