Re: webkit in konqueror!
by Kevin Kofler on Sunday 09/Mar/2008, @11:55

One thing I'm wondering: could we also solve the code duplication problem by, instead of wrapping QtWebKit in a KPart, implementing the QtWebKit API in terms of KHTML? How many APIs would need to be added to KHTML for that (if any)? Is anyone interested in trying to pull this off? In particular, are KHTML developers interested? (IMHO they should be, it'd instantly allow using KHTML in Plasma and Amarok.) The KHTML developers are giving good reasons why they prefer KHTML, so I think it could be useful to have it available as an option everywhere (even in apps coded as Qt-only, though they'd gain a dependency on KHTML that way, and the "some KDE APIs need KApplication" problem might come up).

I am not exactly sure of what you're getting at here. KHTML has a very rich API as is, and had it for years. No reason for apps like Plasma and Amarok not to use it (well, if there are reason, they sure as heck didn't communicate them to us).
