    Hello all,


    I have written my first plasmoid. I called it PlasmaTaskViewer,
    because it views the todos of a calendar file.
    In my case it shows the entries of my iPhone reminder app.

    I would be happy if someone reviews my code. I am especially
    interested in comments about the use of kcalcore and the data engine.
    But every other comment is welcome, too.


I just did a quick look over your code and tried to build it. You'll need to explicitly look for KdepimLibs + set include_dirs in order to build everywhere with no problems. Attached is a simple patch fixing the build.
Thank you very much for the patch and your comments.
Yesterday, I checked in your patch.

I tried running it but have no .ics files present so can't really try it out. Though your configuration dialog is somewhat too small and cannot be resized easily for some reason. One more comment on the visuals - if I add the applet is added on the desktop and you have no data/must set it up first, it should show some label what to do, otherwise it's just an empty Plasma-themed rectangle sitting on your desktop :)
I already noticed the issue with the configuration dialog, but couldn't figure out how to fix it, yet.
I will add the label with one of my next changes.

Final note, we do not really support Applets based on QGraphicsView anymore, the proper way to go is to use QML, which is way superior in tech and ease of writing. I think this[1] should be a good way to get you started :)
I will read the tutorial and decide afterwards, if I will change something.
I don't know much about QML, I thought it was only a specific programming language for QT development.
So, currently I don't understand the advantage. But we will see.
