Bug ID: 364801 Summary: there should be a global plugin en/disable setting Product: kdevplatform Version: git master Platform: Compiled Sources OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: rjvber...@gmail.com With the last change to the perforce plugin I am now seeing Could not load plugin "kdevperforce" , it reported the error: "The variable P4CONFIG is not set." Disabling the plugin now. each time I open a session I hadn't opened since the last updated. IMHO this is indicative of an underlying issue with the settings management: it isn't clear which apply per session and which apply globally. It thus cannot be clear either what settings are session-specific overrides of a global default. I don't use perforce, so don't have any reason to set P4CONFIG, and also do not need to be reminded of that every time I create a new session. The perforce plugin can be disabled once and for all (either automatically or manually), and then that setting can apply to all sessions (present, past and future). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. update to KDevPlatform 4.90.91.370 or later 2. create a new session or open an existing session not yet upgraded Actual Results: Could not load plugin "kdevperforce" , it reported the error: "The variable P4CONFIG is not set." Disabling the plugin now. Expected Results: The above error should be printed at most once, the 1st time the absence of P4CONFIG is detected -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
