This Week...

Amarok now supports filtering tracks to scrobble to Last.fm, transcoding into Opus format (if ffmpeg supports it). A new model appears to provide easy access to KWin's Clients from QML; better screen edges support. Improved settings handling in KDE Telepathy. Kate adds a filter to project search mode. Work on an initial port of Akonadi server to new notifications; a job for discovering all special collections.

{CollectionTree,PlaylistBrowser}View: fix doubleclick behaviour

Commit 2310a19341e583fc made it impossible to add an item to playlist
by double click in double click mode. This patch restores and tweaks
the original algorithm. (to keep bug 279513 fixed)

Used ideas from a patch by Yichao Yu, but implemented differently.

Volker Härtel committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdenetwork/kopete/plugins/nowlistening:

This commit solves a bug in kopete nowlistening preferences kcm

To reproduce the bug in nowlistening preferences kcm:

- open the preferences for nowlistening plugin
- in the third tab check the checkbox and choose a mediaplayer
- close the dialog
- open preferences again (the checkbox is now already checked)
- choose another mediaplayer
- close the dialog
==> the mediaplayer-selection is not applied
test that by opening the preferences again and look

This patch replaces the k3listbox by a klistwidget, which solves the
problem, and seems a good idea anyway because k3listbox will be removed
someday.

Eli MacKenzie committed changes in [konversation] src/irc/server.cpp:

Flush inbound queues when flushing outbound queues

If a quit message comes through at the same time as the socket is
closed by the server, a mix of quit and reconnect actions occur.
This is caused by the return to the event loop between pulling the
data out of the socket and actually processing it. This would close
all channels, for instance, because our nick is still in the nicklist
when the quit message goes through the inputfilter.

Martin Gräßlin committed changes in [kde-workspace] /:

Model to provide easy access to KWin's Clients from QML

A new ClientModel is added which provides multiple different views on
KWin's Clients. The model is organized as a tree model supporting the
following levels:
* activities
* virtual desktops
* screens
* none

The levels can be ordered in whatever way one wants. That is the tree
structure can have an ordering of activities then virtual desktops or
the other way around.

In addition the model provides Exclusion flags to exclude clients of
certain types. E.g. it's possible to exclude all windows which are not on
the current desktop or all windows which are of type dock.

The model gets automatically updated whenever a Client is added/removed
or changes a state in a way that it should be excluded/included.

The ClientModel is not directly exported to QML. Instead there are
specific sub classes for certain common orderings. This solutions is
chosen to workaround some limitations of QML. The initial idea was to
use a property taking a list of the levels, but this doesn't work because
we are not notified when the QDeclarativeListProperty changes.

Currently the following models are provided to QML:
* ClientModel -> no restrictions
* ClientModelByScreen -> ordering by screen
* ClientModelByScreenAndDesktop -> screen, then desktop

These can be used to get all Clients:
ClientModel {
}

Or to get the classic Present Windows on current desktop:
ClientModelByScreen {
exclusions: ClientModel.OtherDesktopsExclusion | ClientModel.NotAcceptingFocusExclusion | ...
}

Or to get the classic Present Windows on all desktops:
ClientModelByScreen {
exclusions: ClientModel.NotAcceptingFocusExclusion | ...
}

Or our well known desktop grid:
ClientModelByScreenAndDesktop {
id: desktopGrid
exclusions: ClientModel.NotAcceptingFocusExclusion | ...
}

To support filtering as known by the Present Windows effect one can use
a ClientFilterModel, which is a QSortFilterProxyModel filtering on
window caption, role and class:
ClientFilterModel {
id: filterModel
clientModel: desktopGrid
filter: filterItem.text
}

In case it's a tree level obviously QML does not support this correctly.
So we need to use a VisualDataModel:
VisualDataModel {
id: clientModel
model: filterModel
Component.onCompleted: {
clientModel.rootIndex = modelIndex(0);
clientModel.rootIndex = modelIndex(0);
clientModel.delegate = thumbnailDelegate;
}
}

As we can see, the rootIndex has to be set to the level which contains
the Clients. Also it seems to be important to create the delegate after
the model index has been set. The idea is to have only one ClientModel
and multiple VisualDataModels if multiple views on the data is needed.

The model has been tested with a painful modeltest session. It looks good
so far modulo the listed limitations and that modeltest is not liking
closing Yakuake in the ClientModelByScreenAndDesktop setup, though it
works fine in real world testing.

Frank Reininghaus committed changes in [kde-baseapps] dolphin/src/kitemviews/kfileitemmodel.cpp:

Use a consistent way to group files by "Date"

Before this change, files were grouped by calendar weeks if they were
modified in the current month and ignoring the "first week day setting",
but by the actual distance measured in multiples of seven days if the
were modified last month.

This not only fixes the "ignores first week day" bug, but also the
problem that the inconsistencies in the algorithm could lead to a broken
grouping in the first days of a month (see screenshot in the review
request).

Initial port of Akonadi server to new notifications

Internally, Akonadi server now uses NotificationMessageV2 which can,
for specific operations, handle multiple items.

The code needs to be optimized on several places and compression is
not yet implemented, but legacy clients (i.e. clients that don't
support the new format) work perfectly. There is no client that would
support the new format, so that is not yet tested :-)

David Faure committed changes in [kdepim] /:

React to the special-collections discovery job and updating the sorting.

This sorts IMAP trash folders correctly in the folder list.
(Not that this matters much to me, but it clarifies the obvious "race"
in the code). I checked all other callers of folderIsTrash, and they
happen on user action (selecting folders, deleting messages), so there's
nothing to update. The user just has to wait for the kmail startup to be
finished.

Also fixes a few small problems:

* The text was elided in a rect that was for some reason sometime
smaller and sometimes bigger than the available area.
* Add one point for the gray line in the bottom.
* Play a little bit with spacing, borders and size hints to make
it prettier and easier to understand.

Don't lock the RM mutex just to check if our URI is empty, check it directly.

This leads to a major speed up in kmail, which I found to be very often
stuck on that RM mutex in the main thread, even though we prepare the resource
in a different thread (in asyncnepomukretriever) so all props are available.

Combining settings in a singleton class so that there is no confusion about the current settings.

Up to now the settings for where new chats open were loaded by
ktp-text-ui on startup and not re-read anymore. Changing the settings
in the config dialog had no immediate effect; only after the next
start of ktp-text-ui it finally changed.

Now whenever the settings get asked for the singleton provides the
current value. Thus every change to the settings via the config dialog
will take effect immediately.

Also gives a way to easily add new settings in one place. Will be
useful for implementing the additional settings required by bug 282201
(make it configurable if "user is typing" gets show") which needs two
more bools.
