Doesn't look to be a KDE app anymore. Should this be changed to QScope ?

So I immediately looked at the KScope page bug don't see a 1.9.x release.

I don't know if cutting down the KDE dependency is right or not, but withtout 
it, it looks ugly. For example, no code highlighting, no colors.
And on top of all, the new kscope doesn't recognize your old kscope projects.

Probably it is in the early stages atm, but I wanted to give my feedback.

---Version: 1.9.2-1


Package: kscope
Version: 1.6.1-1
Severity: normal

This bug could be closed with the reason that KDE4 is in experimental. ;-)

But it'd be very nice if we could have kscope working in KDE 4 too.

Currently kscope depends on libkateinterfaces.so.0 which is part of kate. But 
with Kate from 4.1, that library is not available.

Can you please prepare a kscope package for KDE 4.1 in experimental?

Ritesh

2009-02-28 Thread Fathi Boudra
Hi Ritesh,

 Doesn't look to be a KDE app anymore. Should this be changed to QScope ?

yes, it's a rewrite using Qt4 and Qscintilla.
Maybe the name should be changed.
I guess it's up to Elad to take the decision.

 So I immediately looked at the KScope page bug don't see a 1.9.x release.

The website need to be refreshed and introduce 1.9.x series.

 I don't know if cutting down the KDE dependency is right or not, but withtout
 it, it looks ugly. For example, no code highlighting, no colors.

Are you using it under KDE 4 ?
Do you mean the editor is ugly ?
If I'm not wrong the editor in previous version is done using kate.
Now, it's Qscintilla.

 And on top of all, the new kscope doesn't recognize your old kscope projects.

wishlist bug report to Elad.

 Probably it is in the early stages atm, but I wanted to give my feedback.

yes, beta stage.
You're welcome for your feedback.

cheers,

Fathi

Yes, I was testing it under KDE4.
Yes, It did install the qscintilla dependency.
IIRC Eric IDE also uses qscintilla and the editor looks good there. But in 
case of kscope, it looked ugly. No line number, no highlighting, no colors.

And also, there was no Navigator/Explorer like in KScope 3 (1.6.x).

Elad, I hope I'm not asking for too much. But kate in KDE is an actively 
maintained application. And now KDE is on Windows/Mac also.
Do you think the switch to qscintilla is worth it?
Depending on Kate brings all of Kate's power to Kscope. For eg, we can get the 
recent Vim mode of Kate (Part of Kate of KDE4) in Kscope if kscope uses the 
kate editor. Just a thought.

And thank you for KScope. I use it a lot. :-)

PS: I still use KScope 3 in KDE4. KScope only has the libkate dependency. So I 
just extracted and installed those libs in my /usr/local folder.
