/**
@mainpage The TDevelop Generic Shell
This library contains the Shell - a profile-based implementation of TDevelop plugin architecture.
<b>Link with</b>: -lkdevshell
<b>Include path</b>: -I\$(kde_includes)/tdevelop/shell
\section creatingapp Creating an application using generic shell
TDevelop platform applications can use generic shell as a ready to use implementation
of TDevelop plugin architecture.
This is done by creating application %main.cpp file and @ref ShellExtension subclass.
Example:
- %main.cpp for "myapp" application:
@code
#include <config.h>
#include <tdeaboutdata.h>
#include <tdeapplication.h>
#include <tdecmdlineargs.h>
#include <tdelocale.h>
#include <dcopclient.h>
#include <splashscreen.h>
#include <toplevel.h>
#include <plugincontroller.h>
#include <partcontroller.h>
#include <core.h>
#include <projectmanager.h>
#include <newmainwindow.h>
#include "myappextension.h"
static TDECmdLineOptions options[] =
{
{ "profile <profile>", I18N_NOOP("Profile to load"), 0 },
{ 0,0,0 }
};
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
static const char description[] = I18N_NOOP("My Application");
TDEAboutData aboutData("myapp", I18N_NOOP("My Application"),
VERSION, description, TDEAboutData::License_GPL,
I18N_NOOP("(c) 1999-2004, MyApp developers"),
"", "http://www.myapp.org");
aboutData.addAuthor("Me", I18N_NOOP("Creator"), "me@myapp.org");
TDECmdLineArgs::init(argc, argv, &aboutData);
TDECmdLineArgs::addCmdLineOptions( options );
TDEApplication app;
MyAppExtension::init();
QPixmap pm;
pm.load(locate("data", "myapp/pics/myapp-splash.png"));
SplashScreen * splash = new SplashScreen( pm );
splash->show();
app.processEvents();
QObject::connect(PluginController::getInstance(), SIGNAL(loadingPlugin(const QString &)),
splash, SLOT(showMessage(const QString &)));
splash->message( i18n( "Loading Settings" ) );
TopLevel::getInstance()->loadSettings();
PluginController::getInstance()->loadInitialPlugins();
splash->message( i18n( "Starting GUI" ) );
NewMainWindow *mw = dynamic_cast<NewMainWindow*>(TopLevel::getInstance()->main());
if (mw)
mw->enableShow();
TopLevel::getInstance()->main()->show();
Core::getInstance()->doEmitCoreInitialized();
delete splash;
kapp->dcopClient()->registerAs("myapp");
return app.exec();
}
@endcode
- Shell extension for "myapp" application:
@code

public:
static void init()

s_instance = new MyAppExtension();
}

virtual void acceptGlobalSettingsPage(KDialogBase */*dlg*/) {};
