Re: Writing Plugins for KDE Applications

One word: Amazing. I just downloaded and compiled the source code. Works like a charm. I got a new toolbar with the ABC spellcheck icon on it. The toolbar even magically goes away in FileManager mode. It's a wonderful feeling to run a browser that is as easily extendable as this.
How do I add the icon ABC automatically to the main toolbar? I tried editing plugin_htmlvalidator.rc by changing mainToolBar to Main Toolbar but that didn't work.
One funny thing is that the source code is only a few lines long but the Makefile stuff is hundreds of kilobytes. :-)

I'm pleased to see that I had to wait for KDE 2, but not for a bad WM !
It's really great ! It's perhaps more easy to add parts to the "explorer" under KDE in C++, than under Windows, with VB ;-)
I wish a long life to the KDE Project !

I have tried out the libhtmlvalidatorplugin form the tutorial. After installation there was no entry for the plugin in the tools menu of konqueror. After I changed the line
kpartgui name="htmlvalidator" library="libhtmlvalidatorplugin" to
kpartgui name="htmlvalidator" library="libhtmlvalidatorplugin" version="1" in plugin_htmlvalidatior.rc it worked.

Changes to example + Babelfish plugin
by Kurt Granroth on Friday 26/Jan/2001, @12:29

| After reading Rich's excellent tutorial, I was inspired to hack around for a bit. I downloaded the tutorial and starting cleaning things up. For instance:
- BUGFIX: Put the ToolBar container outside of the MenuBar container. This was why the action created it's own toolbar instead of appending to an existing one.
- BUGFIX: Put the toolbar action inside of "extraToolBar" instead of "mainToolBar" since that's what the extra toolbar is for.
- CLEANUP: Got rid of a lot of the old KDE 1.x 'configure' and 'automake' stuff and replaced with new and improved KDE 2.x stuff.
- OTHER: Created a 16x16 and 22x22 icon just for the validator
- OTHER: Changed some references of 'spellcheck' to 'htmlvalidator'
- OTHER: Changed '"&Validate Web Page (plugin)"' to 'i18n("&Validate Web Page")' since no other plugin claims to be a plugin AND it's always good practice to use i18n.
But while I was doing that, I wondered how easy it would be to create a plugin to do page translation as suggested in the above article. The result was the 'babelfish' plugin. It puts a KActionMenu list of all of BabelFish's translations (English to French, etc) in the menubar and toolbar. It's pretty slick.
I'm not 100% sure what to do with all this so for now, I just put it up on the web for anybody to get:

Would it make sense to write a cd-writer plugin for konquerer?
Or how should something like this look like?

Excellent. And it looks way better than the ugly Gnome UI.

Thanks Rich,
due to your nice tutorial I finally implemented qwertz' suggestion to configure Java/Javascript/Cookies/Image loading in a small dropdown menu, so you don't have to open the config-dialog for those often-changed settings.
Grab the plugin here.
For the cookie settings to work, you need a current kdelibs snapshot (beta2 is not sufficient), but the other settings should work just fine with 2.0.
Cheers,
Carsten

Thanks to you programmers, what a nice world you create.
An old man's wish; a plugin that brows' all the man-, info- and docu pages.
Beatiful thanks

factory name

Is it necessary for the plugin's factory method to be called 'create ()'?
