kbfx KCModule

July 30, 2005 · Filed Under Dev Hours, Open Source · 5 Comments 

Finally, after changing my previous KConfigXT based dialog into a QWidget based and adding loadConfig and saveConfig code (too bad there’s no managed widget in KCModule like the one we can found in KConfigDialog framework), I got kbfc KCModule working. Just need to add a way to notify current kbfx applet about the new config and we’ll have a party :D. A dcop interface will surely needed :). Screenshot anyone? ;)

A Bit Tired

July 28, 2005 · Filed Under Dev Hours, Regular Hours · Comment 

I was a bit tired that I wrote that first rule of thumb shit. Well, the rule is not wrong. But, what I want to correct here is the code is actually fine. It was only some code (and UI) introduced to give some clarity to the user. I decided to checkout curent HEAD into other folder and see what actually change (my working copy is alrady update is unable to run). Then I see, the old behaviour is still preserved.

Thank you for keping the consistency :)

Hoahmmm, I miss my KCModule code

First rule of thumb: do NOT break the internals.

Introduce new feature (or GUI) by subclassing. If it’s not possible don’t break what’s been there. Add the new feature while leaving the old behaviour intact. There must be away to do that. But, in case you don’t believe that you may copy paste it and start a new class somewhere.

Do please be cautious that somebody else may using the same class. So breaking the old behaviour definitely would be such a pain in the ass.

Now I really want a top down design.

No, I write this down with a cool head, no need to worry.

Like you’ve said it’s me who want it so it’s okay for you. You do made me laugh. That’s so cheap! And bleh like I care. I guess I’ve had enough.

I’ve made up my mind. i’m willing to take the risk.

Made yours, and define your steps. Defining no step will only worry me about going into these circles we have today.

Don’t bother yourself by resolving who started it first. It’s fuckin’ useless.

Blame it on me, I don’t fuckin care!! Satisfy yourself of having no guilt. I don’t care.

I am breaking this thing. See. It’s me. So all the blame goes to me. You need not to worry about guilt, I’ve adopted it.

[Procrastination Log] Day #2

July 27, 2005 · Filed Under Mood, Regular Hours · 1 Comment 

Huzzah, day #2 of the fight. I’m happy on this day #2. Let’s go on detail.

Negative:

  1. I haven’t wash my trousers. I should be able to do that this morning after washing my socks. but I didn’t do that.
  2. I get up late, lazily since I felt this morning is so damn cold (just like yesterday)

Positive:
I managed to do my schedule as planned.

  1. I did go to north campus looking for the you-know-who guy in my dejavu. Too bad he wasn’t there
  2. I did the money transfer asked. Though it’s demanded due next month, I transferred this morning just to make myself happy for the sake of oign no procrastination. I can do that today, so why shouldn’t I?
  3. I went to South campus looking for my lecturer-in-charge (”dosen wali”, somebody tell me what these words in english please). He wasn’t there, but hey who’s there playing solitaire?!! Uh oh, it’s you-know-who!! My lucky day!!

Me: “Gimana pak nilai saya?”
You-know-who: “Nilai apa ya?” (I know this will happen, but playing dumb is a funny thing I can enjoy here. Looking his innocent face of not recognizing me. D’oh)
Me: “Tugas Khusus I”
You-know-who: “Kmu dulu ambil ..” ( forgot this part but the point is he told me, implicitly, he got amnesia)
“Oh, iya, kemarin saya sudah bertemu dgn pak ****** (the lecturer involved). Katanya kmu langsung hadap beliau saja” (uh oh, here we go again, he try to throw me away)
“Ok pak, terimakasih” (D’oh, back to square one!)

Hey! Who’s that. I guess this day ain’t over afterall. That’s the lecturer involved. I followed him into his room. And after his business with other officer is done, he point at me diretcly as if asking “what can I do for you?”
“Soal TK I pak ..”
“Loh, belum to? Kamu dulu yang asistensi D3 itu kan .. ehhh, OOP, delphi?”
“Ya pak” (smiling happily, damn he remember me well. I’m happy)
“Okay, berapa NIM-mu?”
“7641″
I cut the story here. So that’s it. I finally managed to see the lecturer. And I relly hope that distant light is the ligth I want. Not a train coming my way (as what James sings in No Leaf Clover). darn, I forgot to ask how soon can I check back. Ah well, let see if I can meet him again tomorrow.

What? You don’t like the transfer. Sue yourself! You ruin my almost happy day (without the SQL query should finish somehow). No, no need to apologize whatsoever. You stressed to me again just now. You will not interfere what I do, and same thing apply to me.
You’re not happy with your own word? Sue yourself!

These notes is not for you. Not a progress report for you. Not a reason to legitimate whatever opinion I might like to form. These notes happen to be a tool to give myself a feeling of proud for being less like a procrastinator.

Damn, who the hell am I talking to?

KCModule

July 27, 2005 · Filed Under Open Source, Regular Hours · Comment 

I’ve been trying to twidle around with KCModule last nite. Instead of learning gradually, I start with messing around how to get KConfigXT works with it. As far as I know, after browsing KDE SVN repo, I need to make a new KDialogBase based widget with its own load and save configuration method. I’m a lil bit confused how I can utilize my former ui with is doing fine with KConfigDialog thingy.

If I want to use the same ui, with the same kcfg, I wonder how to make it work. KCModule docs does say something about KConfigXT, but it never say how to integrate it. There is a method called addConfig(KConfigSkeleton *, QWidget *), but I haven’t able to digest how it behaves.

Darn, how can I have a managed ui as well as configuration?

Such a pheromone call … to terrorize

As you can see, pulling up may anger is just a snap.

NO, not any of you are real!!

All I’ve got .. All I’ve got is insane


I push my fingers into my eyes
It’s the only thing slowly stops the ache

If the pain goes on, I’m not gonna make it

Do you have any idea how much I love that song .. It sends me away to the sky .. Blowing my chest with enourmous energy .. So much energy that you’ll try to scream just to let it get out of your body ..

Procrastination:

  • I should have wash two other socks this morning, I’ve prepared the “ember” since yesterday. This morning is just too cold though I did take a bath. I haven’t wash my socks.

Contra Procrastination:

  1. I did go to campus today. Looking for that people in my dejavus. Unfortunately he was not there.
  2. Then I went to administration office, asking about my grade wether it’s been submitted (available) or not. Official answer: It’s not there yet.
  3. Next stop: South campus bulding. I went there to look for my in charge lecturer (”dosen wali”). Too bad he’s still attending some student Final Examination session.

Keluar kampung gajah

July 25, 2005 · Filed Under Regular Hours · 7 Comments 

Sore ini tiba-tiba aku mutusin, aku keluar dari kampung gajah. Alasannya sih aku mau latihan membulatkan tekat, dgn tidak banyak atau terlalu lama berpikir sampai akhirnya rasa enggan atau takut yg tak beralasan kembali muncul di kepalaku. Bakal ketinggalan banyak news yakinnya, but well, decision had been made. Aku akan kembali lain waktu, dan semoga waktu itu aku bisa dgn bangga menunjukkan bahwa aku bukan lagi seorang procrastinator.
