[Kst] kst 2.x: dbus interface / datasource API

[Brisset, Nicolas]

Hi,

 

activity on kst2 was a bit slower in the last days. I suppose Barth has
had other stuff to take care of...

I would like to know how things look for the next future, and also ask 2
questions:

- could we try to go through the data source API discussion because I
had started adapting ASCII to read in units, but when I saw the relative
mess that it is (with many classes and many places where the config is
written or read) I was a bit discouraged... And there are also
CDF/netCDF to be ported to kst 2, which should be easy once the new
design if finalized.

- what are the plans wrt the dcop interface? I believe dcop has been
replaced with dbus in Qt4/KDE4. My understanding is that it is still
applicable even when we don't run under KDE4, but I'm not sure. And I
don't know whether it has already been adapted, whether this adaptation
is difficult and if there are different plans for kst 2.x.

 

Hoping kst 2.x picks up some pace in the short future again, so that we
can release a first 2.0.0 version in finite time...
