As a first step, we are leaving Qt3Support, if possible. There are cases when it is best to port to the corresponding Qt4 classes. Examples of these are the QButtonGroups, KActions, KPageWidget, QTabBar
For now, focus on make it work. Assess whether it will be faster using Qt3Support or a newer class.


The repository to use is the one in KDE SVN. svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/office/kmymoney.

These are the issues that need to be fixed first before releasing a beta version.

*<s>Enter does not work for transaction enter, only Return does.(not as important as the other, but it's a nag in a main part of the application)</s>
*<s>Port AqBanking plugin</s> ''Note: KBanking compiles against AqBanking >= 4.2.4. Did some preliminary testing which looks OK. Still need to do more testing esp. with chipcards etc. (ipwizard)''
*<s>There are a couple of occurrences of '''Uninitialized variables''' warnings during the build. We should fix those.</s> The remaining occurrences are all in libkdchart.
*Several files are rebuilt if '''make''' is executed twice in a row.

I thought that we can put here a list of features that are known to work (after a developer testing):

Please include the areas you are working on to avoid overlapping with other developers.

The following are on my TODO list but that does not mean that I don't need any help on them:
*<s>Check all the KListView classes that save their layout and make sure that works (restoreLayout was called in polish() in the Institutions view and polish() is not called anymore)</s>(done)
*<s>Check what's up with the transaction form in the ledger</s>(done)
*<s>Work on the transaction form since I see it as the hardest thing to port and once it is done (with qt3 support) we can go one and work on the following bullet</s>(done)
*<s>Try to fix various small stuff that don't work yet until a usable application is obtained</s>(done)
*<s>Check for multiple instances. It was using DCOP, and it has to be migrated to a method suitable with DBus.</s>
*<s>Port the KBanking plugin to KDE4 and add it the KMyMoney source tree</s>
*<s>Although the code that takes care of the drawing of the highlighter of the drop target in kmymoneyaccounttreebase.cpp was ported the drop target is not highlighted</s> (will be replaced by a new item view)
* Implement the following features on the new accounts view:
** <s>show the reconciliation state</s>
** drag and drop
** <s>unused categories message only if it's the case</s>
=== asoliverez  ===
<s>I will work on the account selector, probably migrate it to Qt4 widgets, because it does all kinds of weird stuff that can be probably optimized.</s> (fixed by conet) Working on the i18n and documentation issues with KDE-i18n team. Also going through the Krazy report, and fixing issues there.
=== ipwizard  ===
I will try to keep the strings together and work on coordination for the integration of/with other KDE applications. On the code front maybe setting up the Qt-Designer plugin for the KMyMoney widgets.
*<s>Getting the GPG encryption to work with either [http://api.kde.org/kdesupport-api/kdesupport-apidocs/qca/html/index.html QCA] or [http://api.kde.org/4.1-api/kdepim-apidocs/libkleo/html/index.html libkleo]</s> Replaced using [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdepimlibs-apidocs/qgpgme/html/index.html QGpgME]
*<s>Replace kMyMoneyDateInput with [http://api.kde.org/4.x-api/kdepim-apidocs/libkdepim/html/classKPIM_1_1KDateEdit.html KPIM::KDateEdit]</s> Postponed, as KPIM::KDateEdit development headers are not available in some distros
*Separate the base and constructed widgets into their own libs
*Provide a designer plugin library with KMyMoney specific widgets. Work has started and the first widget (date entry) is available for plugins this way.
=== fvilas  ===
*<s>Convert the dialog allocations on the stack to use QPointer, per EBN point #5.</s>
*<s>Port the WebPriceQuote object.</s>
*<s>Port the QIF reader</s> and add test cases for it.
*Q3Table -&gt; QTableWidget for transaction and register (postponed due to size of task. If anyone wants this, I can send you my patch so far, if not, I'll get back to it at some point.)
*<s>Q3ButtonGroup -&gt; QButtonGroup port</s>
*General cleanup of deprecation warnings to quiet the build a bit
*<s>Q3BoxLayout -&gt; QBoxLayout</s>

Please report here the issues you find.
Look in BKO under kmymoney4
 
*<s>Libkdchart has been commented out until last minute. Charts won't work until then</s>(asoliverez)
*<s>Check for multiple instances. It was using DCOP, and it has to be migrated to a method suitable with DBus.</s> (conet)
*<s>There is a bug in KHTMLPart where you get weird results if you call write() many times. Save it to a QString and call write() once instead.</s> Done (ipwizard)
*<s>Q3ButtonGroup objects should be migrated to QButtonGroup. The Q3Support class is severely handicapped and there are no issues in porting to the new class.</s>
*Standard icon names have changed. Check the name of the icon being called if you see a default icon is being displayed.
*<s>The code that creates the title bar (the one with the blue image) has been commented out since it somehow was not visible and the other widgets got behind in making it impossible to click them with the mouse.</s>(the code has been ported it only needs a good color scheme)
*The kmymoney.css seems to use the KDE3 styles. That's a bug in KHTML that will be in KDE SC 4.4.
 
== Areas to leave as they are for the moment  ==
 
libkdchart is an extract from koffice. If we find a bug there, it is best to report it to the kdchart maintainers
 
The mymoney folder contains the engine. It is covered by the unit tests and they run ok. This is a critical area of the application, so check with Thomas or Alvaro before making a change.
 
Of course, if you find a critical bug in anywhere on the application, send a mail to the mailing list or report it on bugs.kde.org.

Revision as of 00:50, 18 August 2010

This is the community page for the KMyMoney project.


Development guidelines

The repository to use is the one in KDE SVN. svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/extragear/office/kmymoney.


Blocking issues

No blocking issues at the moment

Krazy warnings

Also, here you have the KrazyEBN report, which reports common issues on the code. Krazy Report


Issues

Look in BKO under kmymoney4

Mailing list

https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kmymoney-devel. Use it to discuss issues related to the port to KDE4.

Coordination

Alvaro Soliverez is coordinating the KDE4 effort. You can reach me at asoliverez at gmail.com or on IRC under Hei_ku in the #kmymoney channel. Alternatively, you can contact Thomas Baumgart on the developers list.

People involved

  • conet
  • asoliverez
  • tbaumgart aka ipwizard
  • fvilas
  • tonyb
  • ostroffj

(Contact the coordinator if you are willing to contribute)


New Features

Donations

The project currently has no costs, and therefore has not setup a unified way to collect donations. Each individual developer provides a way to receive donations, which will be used project-related or for leisure (which, in turn, helps the project. After all, a happy developer writes better code, right?).
