How to write a plugin for KView =============================== There are two different kinds of plugins for KView that you may write: KPart plugins for KView or the KView KPart (KViewViewer). Writing the Plugin ================== You have to derive your plugin from KParts::Plugin and install the rc file under the directory "data" (KDEDIR/share/apps/ usually)+"instancename/kpartplugins/" (where instancename can be either kview or kviewviewer). If you install it under kviewviewer the plugin will be loaded for the KPart (meaning it get's loaded in e.g. Konqueror). If you install it under kview it only get's loaded when starting the KView application. The parent that is passed on to your plugin will be a KImageViewer::Viewer interface (which is also a KParts::ReadWritePart) if you make it a KViewViewer plugin, else you'll be passed a pointer to KView (take a look at the template plugin to see how to get to the KImageViewer::Viewer interface). Plugin Desktop file =================== Now you need to write a .desktop file for your plugin, containing the name, a comment, author, email and plugin name. Here's a start: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ [Desktop Entry] Name=Coolplugin Comment=This is a very cool plugin doing foo and bar Type=Plugin [X-KDE Plugin Info] Author=Matthias Kretz Email=kretz@kde.org PluginName=kviewcool Version=1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The "PluginName" entry needs to be the same as the name attribut in your .rc file (<kpartplugin name="kviewcool" library="kview_coolplugin">). Examples ======== There are a few modules already in the original KView sources. Just take a look at kdegraphics/kview/modules/*.
