TODO Plugin for QtCreator
-
Hi Vass,
concerning the file parsing:
- you do not need to open the file for your plugin again. In your slot "currentEditorChanged()" you can do the following:
@
QPlainTextEdit textEdit = 0;
if (editor) {
textEdit = dynamic_cast<QPlainTextEdit>(editor->widget());
if (!textEdit) {
// do something
}else{
// yay! you have a pointer to the textedit that contains the already open file you are looking at.
// the contents of the file are easy to get:
QString fileContent(textEdit->toPlainText());
}
}
@Regards,
Markus -
... but then you do not get the project wide TODOs, only those in the currently open files. I am not sure whether that is what you want or not.
I would like to second Markus suggestion to use Tasks and the Build issues view. That way you get instant access to the TaskHandler infrastructure used to implement the functionality seen in the build issues context menu/navigation. I would consider "Blame" TaskHandler to be very useful in the context of TODO/HACK items:-)
It would be pretty trival to add a "Mark as done" TaskHandler, too which would trigger a quickfix to remove the TODO comment...
The downside of using tasks is that -- at this time -- they do expect a error/warning/other kind of severity and that the icons are hardcoded based on this severity.

Vass: Feel free to contact me if you need enhancements to the task class;-) I am happy to discuss your requirements.

Vass: How about doing a merge request to get your work into Qt Creator proper?

Hello Tobias!
Sorry, noticed your comment only now (because of all this "Project Elf" rush)I will very glad, if my plugin will merge to QtCreator, but I don't know what needed for it.
And now plugin not compatible with MASTER of QtCreator.I think there are some rules for merge request will be accepted.
If you help me and tell me what I should do for merge, I'll be very grateful. -
chetankjain: We are starting to introduce checks static code analysis. Currently most of the prototyping seems to happen in the QML camp: They introduced JSlint like functionality into the QML editor recently.
The C++ engine is prepared ready to add more checks, too, but so far nobody found the time to get down and write some checks.
Of course there is also the quick fixes (in C++ as well as QML) which can even "fix up" common problems for you. There are already some of those, but the UI is not really giving any feedback where you can fix things at this time... Try e.g. hitting Alt-Return on a string constant.

I’ve tweaked this plugin in order to make the source code to comply with Qt coding style plus some other changes. This is the repository: https://gitorious.org/qt-creator-todo-plugin/qt-creator-todo-plugin-dsav .
So, I would like to merge the plugin into Qt Creator codebase (Vass agrees, I’ve contacted him before).
Well, the question is what should I do?

I am using this plugin, unfortunately it does not support Polish letters. When I write "możliwość" in the pane the displayed text is "mo?zliwo??". Could somebody fix this?
