2007-02-21 Manolo Valdes * Add Metalink support. 2006-09-02 Manolo Valdes * Add Multisegments kio based transfers. 2006-09-01 Urs Wolfer * Make DBUS really working. 2006-08-31 Urs Wolfer * Enable again FileDialog::getExistingDirectory. It is now fixed. * YesNo messageboxes are bad for usability. Replace with YesNoCancel. * Fix the messagebox order in the add download process (do not show the same box twice). 2006-08-31 Dario Massarin * Add the TransfersViewDelegate and TransferTreeSelectionModel classes. * The former will be used to redesign the TransfersView look & feel, now it is used just to catch the mouse events. * The latter was introduced to have more control over the items that can be selected by the user. In this way it was possible to inhibit the selection of group objects. * Show the KMenu when the user right clicks on a selection of transfers. 2005-11-03 Urs Wolfer * Add option to show / hide menubar and toolbar (forwardport) 2005-10-10 Urs Wolfer * Icon updates: Remove a lot icons. Most icons are part of kdelibs. cr22-{app-kget}/{mime-kget_list}.png icons were 32x32. Resized to 22x22. edit_add / edit_remove icons (used in sidebar) aren't in kdelibs. Replaced with viewmag+/-. I know they are not very suitable. But we have to do a lot of work on the sidebar. * (Re-)implement "Copy URL to Clipboard" transfer action. 2005-10-07 Urs Wolfer * Work on configuration dialogs * Make droptarget-sticky function working * Start implementing expert-mode * (Re-)implement clipboard-autopaste function 2005-10-06 Urs Wolfer * Make commandline option --showDropTarget working 2005-09-17 Urs Wolfer * Konqueror integration implementation. Note: Konqueror freezes at download start if integration is enabled. But I think it's more a Konqueror than a KGet problem. I hope I'll find a solution. 2005-09-10 Dario Massarin * Now a TransferHandler object is created always bt the TransferFactory. This allows to easily reimplement the TransferHandler class, just by creating your own class and returning it when the createTransferHandler() function gets called. * More work on the BTTransferHandler class. * The transfer plugins can now provide its details widget that is displayed automatically at the bottom of the TransferDetails widget. * Implementation of a first bittorrent details widget. * Note that the bittorrent plugin currently has some problems related to threads. It seems that Qt4 is quite different from Qt3 in these regards. 2005-09-08 Dario Massarin * Start to implement properly the detailsWidgets for each transfer. Now we have a basic widget available with all the plugins and the next step is to add at the bottom of it another widget provided by each plugin's factory with the createTransferDetails() function. * Start to implement a BTTransferHandler class, reimplementation of the generic TransferHandler class. 2005-09-02 Urs Wolfer * *Replace the old droptarget icon with the nuvola one 2005-08-31 Urs Wolfer * Icons in smaller sizes (forwardport) * Work on configuration dialogs. Not finished yet. 2005-08-23 Urs Wolfer * Better KGet mime icon (forwardport) * Remove artifacts from images (forwardport) * Add action to show / hide drop target * Add some actions to maintoolbar (new download, show / hide drop target) * Fix a problem with the configuration dialog (wasn't shown the first call) * Remove some compiler warnings 2005-08-12 Dario Massarin * Make the configuration dialogs compile again, but we have to completely redesign them, since they usually refer to settings that are not available anymore. * Fix a problem in the scheduler introduced with the last commit. 2005-08-11 Dario Massarin * More work on the ViewsContainer class. Now we have 3 buttons: "Downloads", "Finished" and "Transfer Details" one. The last one is associated with a QMenu that lets you select which transfer to visualize. * Fixed problem when stopping delayed transfers. 2005-08-06 Dario Massarin * Change the way we handle the Transfer actions * Reoganize the gui, introducing a new ViewsContainer class. 2005-08-02 Dario Massarin Big commit: * KGet ported to qt4. Here there are some issues that still need to be resolved. For example I had to disable the bittorrent plugin becouse currently I don't know how to make it compile again. * Started implementing a new sidebar with qt3. Then I switched to qt4 and realized I had to rewrite it, since I made use of the QListBox classes :-( So I did. I used the QVBoxLayout class. More to come.. 2005-07-29 Dario Massarin Many changes: * Implement two TransferGroup actions (start and stop) and a popupMenu() function in the TransferGroupHandler function. This means that now we can start the download of a group and all the necessary scheduling operations are handled by the scheduler. * Make it possible to have actions defined in the TransferGroupHandler without having to make the handler a QObject. This was achieved by creating a QObject object on demand only if necessary. I'm planning to do the same with the TransferHandler class (where this issue becomes even more critical, especially if the user has lots of transfers). * Right clicking on a TransferGroup in the mainview shows a popup menu populated with the available actions. * Found a way to implement delays in the jobs. Since I don't want a Job to be a QObject, I implemented the timers inside the Scheduler. * When a download switches in the aborted status, delay it. * Now if we move the transfers in a group, they are started or stopped accordingly to their new position. Wow. This finally makes it possible for us to decide in which order to download files! * Implement the start and stop functions in the scheduler, which will start and stop the download in all the available queues. * Hide the m_statusText and m_statusPixmap members in the Transfer class. A Transfer plugin now should call the Transfer::setStatus( ) function to set them. * Fixed a couple of memory leaks 2005-04-25 Dario Massarin Lots of changes: * Redesign of the TransferAction class. * Now the selected transfers are handled in a perfect model/view style. You can select a transfer by means of the TransferHandler. The selection of a transfer triggers a TransferChangedEvent. The list of selected transfers can be retrived from the model. * With this code in place, I added, as a proof of concept, two actions in the toolbar, that are executed only on the selected transfers. * New default TransferAction: "open destination". I think it's very useful * In the mainview the icon associated with each transfer now reflects the mymetype of the file. * Several changes in the Transfer and TransferGroup API * Reorganization of the bittorrent plugin code. Now we check in the Factory if the file is local, and only if this is true we create the BTTransfer object. This allowed to remove lots of code. * Now we can load and save the transfers when starting and closing kget. It seems to work, but I didn't test this very much. * Other things, that now I don't remember :-) 2005-04-17 Dario Massarin Lots of stuff: * Much work on the Job, JobQueue, TransferGroup, TransferHandler classes * Make it possible for each Transfer plugin to define its own actions, or to simply extend the default ones that ship with the base Transfer class. * Add a new TransferAction class that is basically a KAction with the possibility to attach Transfer objects. When the action is executed, this applies to all the attached Transfers. In this way we can create each action only once, saving lots of resources. * Make the TransferFactory return a pointer to a KPopupMenu, filled with the actions that belong to all the transfer of the given list of transfers. * Start to implement the start() and stop() functions in TransferHandler * Start to turn the JobQueue in a standalone class, that doesn't need to be reimplemented (but that can be reimplemented, as the TransferGroup class does). * Start to implement the Scheduler class. * Various fixes and cleanups. The code now allows to start and stop a transfer from the view, only by means of the popupmenu. I think now it should be possible to add the long awaited bitTorrent plugin, at least for testing pourposes. 2005-03-26 Dario Massarin * Reorganization of the model class * The new plugin structure starts working 2005-03-06 Dario Massarin The work on the new architecture has started. 2005-01-29 Dario Massarin * Make it possible in the mainview to move the transfer to a new group using the popupmenu. * group.{h,cpp}: big optimization: cache the groupChanged signals. In this way the GroupList object emits far less signals than before. If you have n transfers, this can save up to 2*n-1 signal calls that are all packed in a single signal. * Cleaned up the code a bit. 2005-01-22 Dario Massarin * Ported the new sidebar to the QListBox class. 2005-01-15 Dario Massarin * Initial implementation of a new sidebar. 2005-01-14 Dario Massarin * Improve the progressbar look&feel 2005-01-14 Dario Massarin * Improve the mainview look&feel, especially in the way the groups are painted. The priority column has been removed. The arrow indicators showing the priority have been changed to display a kget icon, that gets colorized with a color which depends on the priority level. 2005-01-14 Dario Massarin * Implement delay in the transfer class. We don't need this function to be abstract virtual. Remove its partial implementation from the TransferKio class. * Now the scheduler sets a small delay (5 seconds) when necessary (with broken urls) to the transfers. This is enough to allow the scheduler to skip them when downloading and to go on downloading the non broken urls. Nice behaviour, IMHO. 2005-01-14 Dario Massarin * Correct stupid bug that caused wrong updates of the percent field in the group object. 2005-01-13 Dario Massarin * Reorganization of the directories. Some files have been renamed. 2004-11-05 Dario Massarin * Fixed nasty bug in transferKio.cpp which produced a crash every time a download was aborted. * Now also the scheduler is a TransferInterrogator. This means that I have removed the transferStatusChanged signal and now only the transferChanged signal is emitted from the transfer object :-) 2004-11-05 Dario Massarin * New system tray icon effects. This has been realized looking at the amarok code. In the future, when other things will be in place, I will surely paint an icon filled according to the current downloading progress. 2004-11-05 Dario Massarin * Delayed initialization. This should speed up the application startup especially when the user has lots of transfers. 2004-11-05 Dario Massarin * Cleanups all over the code. * interrogator.h: Now we have this new file that defines the two classes TransferInterrogator and GroupInterrogator. If a class wants to interrogate a transfer or a group object it should reimplement them. * group.{h,cpp}: The progressed size, totalSize and percent properties are not saved anymore to file. Now we update the group properties every time we see that a transfer that belongs to the group has changed. Each group change is notified to all the views. * mainview.cpp: fixed crash when executing actions on a group item. 2004-10-17 Dario Massarin * transfer.{h,cpp}: New class TransferInterrogator that abstracts the objects that can "interrogate" the Transfers using the function changesFlags(TransferInterrogator *). In this way not only the views can do it but also, for example, the GroupList objects. * group.{h,cpp}: The Group class has been further developed to keep global statistics on its transfers. There is still lots of work to do. * mainview.{h,cpp}: Tried to achieve a better look&feel. I'm not very happy with the final result, yet. 2004-10-16 Dario Massarin * Added license statements. * mainview.cpp: Some more work on the groups. 2004-10-10 Dario Massarin * group.{h,cpp}: This file introduces the Group and GroupList classes. * panels/groupspanel.{h,cpp}: This is the new "group panel". It's far from complete, but at least we can add/remove groups, this gets notified to all the views and saved to the "transfers.kgt" together with the transfers 2004-10-04 Dario Massarin * transfer.{h,cpp}: The transfer class has been completely rewritten. Now it is possible to implement a new Transfer simply inheriting the Transfer class and implementing the virtual methods. There is also a new api that allows each view to ask the transfer which particular field in the Info struct has changed since the last update. This results in a big optimization becouse we can now avoid unnecessary repaints. * transferKio.{h,cpp}: This is the first implemented transfer. It's the simplest transfer one can implement since it uses a KIOSlave. * views/mainview.{h,cpp}: New view that should be the main one. It reimplements the KListView class. The "special features" list contains the introduction of some cool icons and a new progress bar. 2004-10-05 Dario Massarin * transferlist.{h,cpp}: Api semplifications. In this moment there are some new problems I have just discover and I will fix tomorrow. * transferlist.{h,cpp}, transfer.{h,cpp}: The way kget saves the transfers into the transfers.kgt file has been completely rethinked. The code has been rewritten from scratch and now it uses QDom. In this way each new transfer can, if needed, save its own data that isn't already saved by the Transfer class. * some fixes..
