Every sentence appears to be carefully worded, and every chapter has a sound concept, and so does the work as a whole." -Matthias Ettrich, Trolltech's lead developer, founder of the KDE project "The 'Tao of Qt'.... The Qt system is a beautiful example of object oriented design, and the authors take advantage of this....

Terpstra, Jelmer R. Vernooij, Editors [ Team LiB ] [ Team LiB ] Foreword Why Qt? Why do programmers like us choose Qt? Sure, there are the obvious answers: Qt's single-source compatibility, its feature richness, its C++ performance, the availability of the source code, its documentation, the high-quality technical support, and all the other items mentioned in Trolltech's glossy marketing materials. This is all very well, but it misses the most important point: Qt is successful because programmers like it. How come programmers like one technology, but dislike another? Personally, I believe software engineers enjoy technology that feels right, but dislike everything that doesn't. How else can we explain that some of the brightest programmers need help to program a VCR, or that most engineers seem to have trouble operating the company's phone system? I for one am perfectly capable of memorizing sequences of random numbers and commands, but if these are required to control my answering machine, I'd prefer not to have one. At Trolltech, our phone system forces us to hold the '*' key pressed down for two seconds before we are allowed to type in the other person's extension number. If you forget to do this but start typing the extension immediately, you have to dial the entire number again. Why '*'? Why not '#', or '1', or '5', or any of the other twenty keys on the phone? Why two seconds and not one, or three, or one and a half? Why anything at all? I find the phone so irritating that I avoid using it whenever I can.

  • KDE Plasma 5
    Arvo Mägi KDE Plasma 5 Tallinn, 2017 1 Sissejuhatus KDE töökeskkonnale pani aluse saksa programmeerija Matthias Ettrich 14.10.1996. 2016. a oktoobris sai populaarne KDE seega 20. aastaseks. Hea ülevaate KDE ajaloost annab artikkel „19 Years of KDE History: Step by Step.” KDE 4.14 ilmumisega oli KDE saavutanud kasutusküpsuse, kuid edasine areng kippus takerduma – vaja oli põhimõttelisi uuendusi. Otsustati võtta kasutusele iseseisvatel moodulitel põhinev KDE 5 arhitektuur – Qt/Frameworks. Kõik KDE rakendusprogrammid, sh Plasma 5 töölaud, kasutavad ainult konkreetse rakenduse jaoks vajalikke mooduleid. Varem kasutati kõigi rakenduste jaoks ühist suurt teeki, mis raskendas muudatuste tegemist ja pidurdas arendustööd. Qt on C++ programmeerimiskeskkond. Pikaajalise toega Qt 5.9 LTS ilmus 31. mail 2017. KDE Frameworks on 70 moodulist koosnev komplekt, mis lihtsustab Qt keskkonnas KDE programmide koostamist. Frameworks veaparandused ja täiendused ilmuvad iga kuu. KDE Plasma 5 töölaud põhineb KDE Frameworksil (KF5). Töölaua veaparandused ilmuvad iga kuu, vajadusel mitu korda kuus, uued versioonid kord kvartalis. Plasma 5.8 LTS, mis on pikaajalise toega (18 kuud), ilmus 4.10.2016, veidi enne KDE 20. aastaseks saamist. Plasma 5.10 ilmus 30.05.2017. Järgmine pikaajalise toega Plasma 5.12 ilmub 2018. a jaanuaris. Plasma 5 töölaud on pälvinud palju kiitvaid hinnanguid ja sobib igapäevaseks tööks. Eeldab kaasaegset, mitme tuumaga protsessori ja piisava mäluga (vähemalt 4 GB) arvutit. SSD kettalt töötab välkkiirelt. Töölaud on keskkond rakendusprogrammide käivitamiseks ja kasutamiseks. KF5-le on üle viidud kõik KDE põhirakendused (failihaldur Dolphin, pildinäitaja Gwenview, konsool Konsole, teksti- redaktor Kate, ekraanitõmmise võtja Spectacle, videoredaktor Kdenlive, plaadikirjutaja K3b jt). Need on KDE Applications koosseisus, mille uued versioonid ilmuvad kolm korda aastas, veaparandused kord kuus.

  • Quarterly Report Q2/2009 - Q1/2010
    Quarterly Report Q2/2009 - Q1/2010 the appreciation for KDE's work on the Free Desktop, and to help the KDE e.V. to conduct all those different activities, sprints, meetings, conferences and many others also in the future. Now, without further ado, please read on for an update of the KDE e.V.'s activities over the past year. Signed, Dear KDE e.V. member, In front of you, you have another update on the activities conducted by the KDE e.V.. A lot has happened over the last year in the KDE ecosystem. Since 2009's Akademy, Cornelius Schumacher for the KDE e.V. Board KDE has released two feature releases, KDE SC 4.3 and <[email protected]> KDE SC 4.4. Those two releases verify the design of the KDE platform as a whole, but just in the same way these releases are only the result of thousands of hours put into the KDE codebase over the course of last year. In the Supported Member Activities background, we have the KDE e.V., the foundation to support the KDE community organisationally, legally and Developer Meetings and Sprints not least financially thanks to the help of many people and companies who chose to contribute not by offering their Akonadi Sprint, 3rd - 5th April 2009 time, but by chipping in with some money. With 16 participants the largest Akonadi meeting so far took place in April in the KDAB office in Berlin. Topics In particular our successful strategy to improve the KDE included discussions about core architecture such as platform, desktop and applications is to hold regular searching and virtual collections, design and development of developer sprints, and thereby making it possible for the four different email resources (IMAP, POP3, Maildir and developers who usually collaborate across the Internet to mbox), resulting in a little race to see who would get the meet, discuss, and work together on their projects in first working email folder listing, as well as planning of the person.
