I tracked down a bug that prevents ALL OS's/installations from adding files/creating new files in generic projects. And here is a patch/new ebuild :) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create a non qt-based project 2.Open Project Explorer 3.Right-click root node, close the right click, open right-click again Actual Results: Prevents you from adding new files the second time you right-click, and every time after. (I checked the source, it's guaranteed). Expected Results: Being able to add new files without having to restart :) I gave this to upstream, but it'll likely have to wait until the next official build before we can add files to a project, something that many developers (including me... for _major_ sidetracking from vlc-development onto THIS :P) -- won't want to wait for. This is a very minor fix - on a very important feature.
Created attachment 190212 [details, diff] Fixes a bug preventing the addition of new files into a generic project
Created attachment 190213 [details] Ebuild for the above patch Ebuild for this patch. (Note: even if we don't put this into cvs, I'm sure some will come looking for this bug here.)
Thanks for reporting this. Could you please give me a link with the upstream report of this issue? Did you use the mailing list or something? I want to track this bug report before applying this to portage

Thank you. I ll wait a bit longer for their answer. I ll try to talk to them on #qt-creator channel on irc as well
Here is the log with the qt-creator upstream --------------------------------------------- [16:19:43] <hwoarang> hey eike. Did you manage to see this patch ? -> http://lists.trolltech.com/pipermail/qt-creator/2009-May/002896.html [16:19:56] <hwoarang> we have a downstream bug abou this http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=268403 [16:20:11] <hwoarang> so i want an answer from the official upstream before applying it [16:20:11] <hwoarang> :) [16:21:25] -*- eike tries to figure out how to see that patch [16:21:52] <hwoarang> eike: here [16:21:53] <hwoarang> http://bugs.gentoo.org/attachment.cgi?id=190212 [16:23:25] <b_lindeijer> hwoarang: Doesn't that enable the option to add files to the project? [16:23:45] <b_lindeijer> This action isn't actually supported yet for the generic project. [16:24:10] <hwoarang> i am not excactly sure. i am not the reporter of this bug [16:24:28] <hwoarang> on downstream bug there are some steps to reproduce it [16:24:41] <hwoarang> so it is not a bug, it is a "not implemented" feature? [16:24:48] <eike> hwoarang: yeah, with the patch the action is enabled, but does nothing [16:25:21] <eike> GenericProjectNode::addFiles is a noop [16:25:52] <hwoarang> mmm [16:25:52] <b_lindeijer> I have a todo to implement it (shouldn't be that hard), but until then the action really should be disabled. [16:26:42] <hwoarang> I ll post the log on our bug then :) [16:26:46] <hwoarang> thank you [16:27:01] <eike> hwoarang: np :) ----------------------------------------------------------------- JetDog, if something is unclean to you , you can contact eike on #qt-creator channel. This bug is invalid for now according to upstream :) Closing as INVALID. Re-open it if you have objections
