Bug Fixes

Development Tools

Milian Wolff committed changes in [kdevplatform] /:

Fix opening of tabs when using buddy documents and split views


REVIEW: 102806

Sebastian Trueg committed changes in [nepomuk-core] libnepomukcore/query/querybuilderdata_p.h:

Now a "real" hacky "fix" for the problem with wide characters in queries.

My last "fix" just used bif:charset_recode on the search terms. This,
however is no real solution as it makes the query fail if the terms
do not contain any wide character. Thus, the problem was simply
inverted.
How I do it the brute-force way: I simply truncate the terms at the
first wide char and use the rest. The search excerpts have the same
quality as with the bif:charset_recode hack but it works for wide and
non-wide terms.

Graphics

Marcel Wiesweg committed changes in [digikam] /:

Rewrite of the ImageInfoCache infrastructure with fixed crashes and better granularity

- apply save atomic operations and drop ImageInfoDatas from the cache if ref count is 0
- remove dependency on the big database lock, use a finer grained readwritelock for ImageInfo
- cache image infos by name as well, used for thumbnail info retrieval
- rewrite the getter methods in ImageInfo for the ReadWriteLock

Fix creation of the TOC tree for dvi files

The old code assumed the number of children would be
"-NUMBER "
while this file has
"-NUMBER/"
so what we do now is looping after the - until we find a non digit
All this code would better be done using a regexp and not that many section calls
but i did not want to touch it more than needed

KDE Base

Jekyll Wu committed changes in [konsole] src/SessionManager.cpp:

Always read/write the 'DefaultProfile' entry from/into 'konsolerc'.

That means the default profile is shared among konsole and all host
apps of konsole kpart. That is not ideal enough, but much better than
current inconsistent read/write for the 'DefaultProfile' entry.

Sebastian Trueg committed changes in [kde-runtime/KDE/4.7] nepomuk/common/removablemediacache.cpp:

This includes any character that is percent encoded in URLs.
This fixes a bug where the metadata from files on removable media was

Dario Freddi committed changes in [kde-workspace/dafre/new-powerdevil] /daemon/actions/bundled:

Be smart enough to avoid bringing brightness up when switching to a more conservative profile.

Peter Penz committed changes in [kde-baseapps] dolphin/src/kitemviews/kitemlistview.cpp:

Don't apply an empty item-size to the layout

This fixes strange layout-issues when turning on/off previews in the
details-view.

Thomas Lübking committed changes in [kde-workspace] kwin/effects/presentwindows/presentwindows.cpp:

don't scale highlighted window in present windows during de/activation


it's even worse, since it interferes with generally upscaled windows
(keeps them big, applies false transition and causes a final snapback)
and windata->highlight doesn't end at zero, so the entire screen is
still a little scaled when the effect ends (and snaps down afterwards)

now it snaps down when starting the leave what is better in general
and the only usable solution for upscaled windows.
some day presentwindows might be derived from the yet-to-add
animationeffect class ;-)

Alex Fiestas committed changes in [bluedevil/1.0] src/kcmodule/bluedevildevices.cpp:

Close the renameAlias dialog if the devices change

This is not perfect since this will be triggerd when ANY change
happens in any device but is better than crashing. Will try to fix
better in future versions of BlueDevil.

Jekyll Wu committed changes in [konsole] /:
Sebastian Trueg committed changes in [kde-runtime/KDE/4.7] nepomuk/servicestub/main.cpp:

Delete the service before quitting the application.

This is required since the service shutdown sometimes requires a fully
funcational QCoreApplication. Not having that leads to crashes.

Alex Fiestas committed changes in [bluedevil] /daemon/kded:

Replaced AgentListener (QThread) by delayed DBus messages

This thread has been causing many crashes for some people, and
as far as I remember all the backtraces show weird things not really
within BlueDevilcode, and of course none of the BlueDevil developers has
been able to reproduce the bug. So the best/easy/simpler way of fixing
this is by removing the Thread which shouldn't be there in the first
place.

KDE-PIM

Kevin Ottens committed changes in [zanshin] /:

Workaround Qt 4.8 behavior change of QAbstractProxyModel

OK, that one was tough! Turns out that in Qt 4.8 the behavior of
QAbstractProxyModel changed because it now provides a reimplementation
of hasChildren() not based on rowCount() & columnCount(), but by
forwarding the request to the source model (which in my opinion doesn't
really make sense...).

Because of that, all the proxies or views on top of subclasses of
TodoProxyModelBase were getting totally confused because of
contradictions between hasChildren() and rowCount() results.

That explains the random crashes, or empty views experienced by users
running with Qt 4.8 beta.

Pfew! I'm glad I finally noticed those reports were mentionning Qt 4.8.

Grégory Oestreicher committed changes in [kdepim-runtime] resources/dav/common/davcollectionsfetchjob.cpp:

Correctly read collection permissions

Laurent Montel committed changes in [kdepim-runtime] migration/kmail/localfolderscollectionmigrator.cpp:

Boudewijn Rempt committed changes in [calligra] /ui:

Do not crash when opening the scratchpad

There's something rotten in our handling of the display manager through
the resource server. So for now, get the scratchpad's display profile
just like the canvas does.

When we move to colord and oyranos (and colorsync and so on), we need
to krita's displayprofile code quite carefully.

Robby Stephenson committed changes in [tellico/2.3] /:

Only show boolean checkmarks when field values are not empty

The entry value was not read before returning a checkmark icon
for boolean fields. This was a regression in Tellico 2.3.4.

Boudewijn Rempt committed changes in [calligra] /:

Remove split view functionality

The Calligra split view functionality has some serious problems:

* we cannot split and have two documents in one view
* it is buggy
* the action list is loaded twice when splitting the view, which means
that all shortcuts stop working because they are duplicated

REVIEW:101993





We need to redesign this feature and implement it properly. The age-old
hacks (veryHackyActionList...) cannot be fixed, so remove the current
implementation.

Boudewijn Rempt committed changes in [calligra] krita/ui/openrastertk/kis_open_raster_stack_save_visitor.cpp:

ORA: do not save opacity fraction using locale decimal separator

This would sometimes save opacity as 0,45 instead of 0.45 which
severly impairs interoperability.

Filtering for mime type works again and is more robust.

Instead of relying on the exact position of the combobox

Stefan Majewsky committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdegames/kolf:

Fix some more Z-ordering bugs with static struts and b2ContactListener.

As described in bug 280943, the problem is that the old b2ContactFilter
implementation detected wall-ball collisions too early (when the AABBs
of the participating objects touched for the first time). Especially for
diagonal walls, the ball has not yet been strutted when ShouldCollide()
is called.

This problem is solved by switching from b2ContactFilter to
b2ContactListener, which kicks in only when a collision has really been
detected. (The contact is then disabled if appropriate, as recommended
by the Box2D manual.)

This solution unfortunately introduces a new problem: Walls around
RectangleItems are now invisible for balls coming from inside the
RectangleItem (e.g. bridges and windmills). Actually I have no idea why
this problem didn't appear previously. I solve this by introducing the
notion of "static struts": The rectangle item is the static strut for
its walls and raises them all, even if they are not colliding with the
rectangle item (WindmillGuard, you're an a**hole).

This function is used in KItemListView::updateWidgetProperties()

I've factored out some code from
KItemListSelectionManagerTest::testChangeSelection() to a new
member to simplify the test.

Martin Gräßlin committed changes in [kde-workspace/farhad_hf/lockscreen] /effects/screenlocker:

QML screen locker using KGreeter

ScreenLocker uses a QML scene with the wigdets provided by the
KGreeterPlugins embedded as proxy widgets (yes that sucks, but
it's the best we get without breaking everything).

When clicking the unlock button in the QML scene a signal is emitted
which triggers the greeter verify process. If it succeeds the lock
screen is removed. Failure is not yet supported (restart of greeter).

Currently there are the following remaining issues:
* bad layout of proxy widget
* proxy widget is not auto-focues
* return key does not accept
* switch user not yet implemented
* messages from greeter not passed to view
* authentication failure not yet supported

Peter Penz committed changes in [kdelibs/KDE/4.7] kfile/kfilepreviewgenerator.cpp:

Fix performance regression in KFilePreviewGenerator

When switching from the details-view to the icons-view in Dolphin/
Konqueror a freeze might occur for several seconds. The root cause
for this is commit 41854146040f8638fffb13b20a75f6ecda2837a6. Using
the DateChangeObtainer only worked for the icons-view but in case
of the details-view still inside Qt a layout change got triggered.
As we know that in our case changing the icon won't result in a
change of the layout the signals of the directory-model will get
blocked temporary. By using the new view-engine such ugly workarounds
won't be needed anymore but KFilePreviewGenerator is still used
by other applications.

Thanks to David Faure for investigating into the root-cause!
