Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ KPluginInfo() [1/2]

KPluginInfo::KPluginInfo	(	const TQString &	filename,
		const char *	resource = `0`
	)

Read plugin info from filename.

The file should be of the following form:

[Desktop Entry]
Name=User Visible Name
Comment=Description of what the plugin does

[X-TDE Plugin Info]
Author=Author's Name
Email=author@foo.bar
PluginName=internalname
Version=1.1
Website=http://www.plugin.org/
Category=playlist
Depends=plugin1,plugin3
License=GPL
EnabledByDefault=true

The first two entries in the "Desktop Entry" group always need to be present.

The "X-TDE-PluginInfo" keys you may add further entries which will be available using property(). The Website,Category,Require keys are optional. For EnabledByDefault look at isPluginEnabledByDefault.

Parameters

filename	The filename of the .desktop file.
resource	If filename is relative, you need to specify a resource type (e.g. "service", "apps"... TDEStandardDirs). Otherwise, resource isn't used.

Definition at line 70 of file kplugininfo.cpp.

◆ KPluginInfo() [2/2]

KPluginInfo::KPluginInfo ( const KService::Ptr service )

Read plugin info from a KService object.

The .desktop file should look like this:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Icon=mypluginicon
Type=Service
ServiceTypes=KPluginInfo

X-TDE-PluginInfo-Author=Author's Name
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Email=author@foo.bar
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Name=internalname
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Version=1.1
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Website=http://www.plugin.org/
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Category=playlist
X-TDE-PluginInfo-Depends=plugin1,plugin3
X-TDE-PluginInfo-License=GPL
X-TDE-PluginInfo-EnabledByDefault=true

Name=User Visible Name
Comment=Description of what the plugin does

In the first three entries the Icon entry is optional.
