I don't really have the overview anymore, but the kdelibs4 solution was fully extensible, a servicetype desktop file could define new keys and their type. It looks like desktopfileparser.cpp doesn't have the same flexibility, if each and every app needs to add their keys to the code :( - David Faure On June 11, 2015, 4:16 a.m., Sebastian Kügler wrote: > > ----------------------------------------------------------- > This is an automatically generated e-mail.
