Dear Developers, If I remember correctly, as of the last developer meeting, QtCore classes were being tolerated in the core of LyX. http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org/msg172533.html
Is this correct? Are there any examples of QtCore and Signals/Slots being integrated into the core of LyX? I've been corresponding with one of the GSOC students about using the outline enhancements for a GSOC project, and it seems that moving certain text insets to use QObject (or related) as their base class might be an interesting goal. This would allow for insets to make use of the signal/slot mechanism for communicating updates to the view. In the case of the outline view and underlying TOC model, it wouldn't be necessary to scan for changes, and would provide a nice speed boost to the editing experience. Would such a project be too ambitious? Cheers, Rob
