Description Caleb Tennis 2005-08-04 23:29:20 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Compiler:          gcc 4.0.1 
OS:                Linux

Currently, in QtRuby we do something like this:

class MyClass < Qt::Object
  slots 'mySlot()', 'mySecondSlot()'
  signals 'mySignal()'
end

It would be nice if for convenience we could do this:

class MyClass < Qt::Object
  slots :mySlot, :mySecondSlot
  signals :mySignal
end

For signals and slots which take no argument.

Yes, that wouldn't be too difficult. 

But it would be nice to invent a syntax that worked with slots and signals 
that have arguments too, and specify the arg types in ruby terms like 
'Integer' instead of int and 'String' instead of 'QString' and so on.

QtRuby only existed for Qt4 and Korundum, which never got updated for 5.x

This is unmaintained and any effort towards QtRuby for Qt6 will be from scratch.

Therefore, closing this ticket
