License
|
||
|
|
-------
|
||
|
|
Each files should have its our license header, but generally speaking the code
|
||
|
|
that makes up the PyKDE4 Python modules (libraries) are ̈́"LGPL or later", and
|
||
|
|
the rest is "GPL or later".

Tips
|
||
|
|
----
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Python 3 is supported for the base bindings but currently not for the
|
||
|
|
plugins and embedding. When running cmake specify which python executable
|
||
|
|
you want to use by passing in the -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE= option.
|
||
|
|
For example:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
cmake -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/python3
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Almost every class and method in the KDE API is supported. For most
|
||
|
|
developers PyKDE4 is in good enough shape to start porting and
|
||
|
|
development of PyKDE4 based programs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* PyKDE4 is very sensitive to binary compatibility in KDE's libraries.
|
||
|
|
(PyKDE uses also every class and method in KDE.) Don't be surprised if
|
||
|
|
your PyKDE install breaks after updating your KDE SVN checkout. I (Simon)
|
||
|
|
will do my best to fix things as they break, and to try to keep things up
|
||
|
|
to date when new methods and classes are added to the KDE API.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* If you have written some example code which could be included with PyKDE4,
|
||
|
|
then get in touch!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* The modules, kdecore, kdeui, solid, sonnet etc are now located under a
|
||
|
|
"PyKDE4" top level module. For example, this is what you need now:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
from PyKDE4.kdecore import *
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
or
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
from PyKDE4 import kdecore
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
