I'm not developing KDev4 but you have best wishes from me as I can see huge potential in thie IDE. I'd love to support you but I have full-time job. I wish there is "KDev4" full time job so I could switch :) I test KDev4 regularry. I've tried to build whole KDE4 yesterday but kdevelop failed with some covariant return type (some interfacte with const pointer, I don't remember at the moment). If I have some other crashes I surely let you know. Sounds great! I’m not developing KDev4 but you have best wishes from me as I can see huge potential in thie IDE.

From the organizations listed on http://code.google.com/soc/2008/ it might be possible that Git, Mercurial and SCons consider an integration project. Given that one can apply to multiple organizations, I think KDE students should use that possibility to increase their chances of being selected, and the number of KDE related projects overall.

I usually only have about an hour of time during the week (a bit more during the weekend) compared to last year - when I was still a student... But yes, any time I have an itch to scratch I somehow get involved a bit more than I planned to. Thats how I came to KDevelop in the first place :) If you look more closely at the commit logs, you’ll see that I’m not really doing a lot anymore.

In fact KDevelop3 has no unit tests at all. (at least none that I'm aware of). IIRC we recently removed some of the filtering from the make output as it was getting really slow for lots of output. svn log on parts/outputviews/ should show you the commit. All the filtering logic is in that directory. No there’s no unit test. In fact KDevelop3 has no unit tests at all. (at least none that I’m aware of).

I assume KDevelop forks the child make process and then reads in the stdout and stderr which are produced. Therefore to test this, the make could be replaced with an invocation of a simple script which produces various messages on stdout and stderr. I often build systems with very noisy output. KDevelop is great with its "Very short compiler output" mode. Without this warnings got buried in thousands of lines of informational text. Therefore it's a strong reason for people to use this IDE instead of the command line. Some time between KDevelop 3.5.0 and 3.5.1, the behaviour of "Very short compiler output" changed and it no longer condenses the output as efficiently as it did before (for my build at least). Since "very short" is a matter of opinion, do you have a set of rules against which this feature should operate? With a set of requirements we could then have tests to ensure we don't get regressions from previous releases. If these exist already, could you point out where they are. I'd like to fix this so any help is appreciated. It's also good to know that KDevelop3 is still open for fixes. Thanks, Paul Hello,

All I get to see is the tips and tricks dialog. So I guess I can log in and that plasma has a problem with xinerama. Oh, for me it refuses to log on. All I get to see is the tips and tricks dialog.
