TDENewStuff library - application data sharing framework for KDE
|
|
|
|
TDENewStuff implements the "Get Hot New Stuff" (GHNS) architecture and
|
|
provides KDE applications with easy-to-use upload and download mechanisms,
|
|
with optional popularity counters, ratings, digital signatures, uncompression
|
|
and post-installation DCOP/scripting hooks.

|
* Repositories
|
|
Currently, about 7 repositories exist for a variety of KDE applications using
|
|
TDENewStuff for either download or upload or both.
|
|
Please have a look at the repository browser:
|
|
-> http://www.kstuff.org/hotstuff/index.php?p=browser
|
|
If you want automatic upload processing, download counting and administration
|
|
capabilities, as well as a web frontend, check out the Hotstuff scripts:
|
|
-> http://www.kstuff.org/source/index.php?p=cvs
|
|
For testing, feel free to use the kstuff.org infrastructure, as it is up and
|
|
running 24x7.
|
|
|
|
* Future
|
|
Immediate plans:
|
|
- merge download dialog engine functionality into the engine class
|
|
- incremental updates of directories,
|
|
including cache
|
|
- after installation, return QStringList of installed items so no scanning
|
|
will be necessary anymore
|
|
- how to "fake" installations? (suggestions from TSDgeos)
|
|
knewstuff should know about already installed items
|
|
Future plans:
|
|
- kick-ass web interface with history and contributions
|
|
- integration with KDE SOAP messaging framework and KWSDL to access DXS
|
|
- hm.... :-)

Add d pointers to ALL public classes for KDE 4 or maintaining binary
|
|
compatibility is a nightmare. 12/3/05.
