I made a query to the kde git repos about the use of ecm_qt_declare_logging_category and got 61 kdevelop 57 kdepim-addons 39 kdepim 29 kdepim-runtime 23 plasma-workspace 20 kwin 13 kstars 11 messagelib 11 ark 11 akonadi-import-wizard 10 akonadi .... Sure, it works, but is it efficient to have 61 files, for example in kdevelop, just to declare debug categories and always have to remember which ones to include? In Umbrello, for example, I have only one header file that contains debug support, regardless of part of the application. To have such support, ecm_qt_declare_logging_category only needs to bre able to append code fragments to the related header or cpp file REPOSITORY R240 Extra CMake Modules REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D9446 To: mlaurent, kfunk, lbeltrame, cgiboudeaux, dfaure, fvogt Cc: ltoscano, kde-frameworks-devel, kde-buildsystem, habacker, michaelh, ngraham, bruns
