Description David 2012-01-19 19:32:08 UTC

Version:           git master (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

If I create a new project (by opening a CMakeLists.txt file) and then KDevelop crashes during my session (sadly, happening all too frequently :( ), when I re-open KDevelop it asks me to set my build directory again. My typical work around is to simply create the new project and the immediately close it, then open it again. This way when KDevelop crashes, everything is setup correctly. It seems to make sense that the project settings (build dir) could be saved immediately when the project is created so that wouldn't happen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Create a new project and then crash kdevelop. When you reopen kdevelop, it will ask you again for the build directory you want to use.

Actual Results:  
KDevelop asks again for the build directory when reopneing after a crash while using a new project.

Expected Results:  
KDevelop should save the build directory immediately so after a crash when using a new project the build directory is saved.

Don't upload/download the developer config file if it's a local project

What this patch does, is to not have a developerTempFile and instead use
the actual developer config file (the .kdev4/*.kdev4) to read/write
configurations, in case it's a local project. This way we skip the download
part and kconfig will edit the file in place.
