Hi,
Not all script engines (e.g. webkit) can use QPixmap from the data and
sometimes file path is useful (if artwork is not set I would like to
show jpg from the same dir). This patch adds Url ArtUrl fields to
data. Ok to commit or should I find another solution?
Well, the only thing that concerns me is that if the widget and engine
are on different machines (which is entirely possible, since one of the
GSoC projects was to allow just that), the URLs will not be valid for the
widget.
that's correct; paths that are not reachable over the network are not ok if
the widget is expected to be able to work over the network at all.
one way to work around this would be to implement a system that lets one
open files using KIO via either the DataEngine or AccessManager which
would handle where to open the file from.
but if this really is just to work around webkit not being able to access
pixmap data, that's really something certainly can be worked around in the
webkit script engine.
I can live without arturl but url would be handy even if it is not valid. If
there is no metadata I would like to use file name so there is something to
show to the user. Other option would be to set pattern in dataengine so it
could parse the directory and file name but I'm not sure if that belongs
there.
