Attachments:	start tray icon clock if task is running at program startup

Description Thomas Jarosch 2008-08-22 16:01:09 UTC

Version:           4.0.0 (using 4.1.00 (KDE 4.1.0), 4.1.0-5.fc9 Fedora)
Compiler:          gcc
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.25.14-108.fc9.i686

Hello,

I've just upgraded from KDE 3.5.9 to KDE 4.1.0 using the Fedora packages. I noticed three things about the new ktimetracker:

- Every second time I leave for my lunch hour and lock my screen, the taskbar icon is gone when I come back later. I tried to "strace" this one but with no lock so far.

- Set one task to active. You'll get a rotating clock in the taskbar and in the application. If you quit the application via "File -> Quit" and restart it, the animation of the taskbar is not restarted.

- On startup I see these messages on the console:
QObject::connect: Cannot connect (null)::totalTimesChanged( long, long ) to TimetrackerWidget::totalTimesChanged( long, long )
QObject::connect: Cannot connect (null)::reSetTimes() to TimetrackerWidget::reSetTimes()

FYI: I've not deleted or converted my karm KDE 3.5.9 in any special way.

Best regards,
Thomas

Comment 2 Thorsten Staerk 2008-08-23 10:08:10 UTC

ok, 2 bug reports in one...

Comment 3 Thomas Jarosch 2008-08-23 15:26:01 UTC

Thanks for the quick fix! I'll try to trace the disappearing traybar icon next week and will then open a second bug report if that is okay with you.

Comment 4 Thorsten Staerk 2008-08-27 07:49:20 UTC

If the taskbar icon has disappeared, is ktimetracker still running (ps -A | grep ktimetracker)? Obviously yes, because you strace it, but could you confirm?

Comment 5 Thomas Jarosch 2008-08-27 10:18:54 UTC

When I strace it, the icon stays in the taskbar, so the process still exists.
I also haven't figured out yet if it makes a difference if a task is running or not.

Today I won't strace it, but dump the process list every minute into a file. So we'll atleast know if the process still exists or how long it takes until the issue occurs.

Comment 6 Thomas Jarosch 2008-08-27 15:46:01 UTC

Yipee, I figured out how to reproduce this one :-)

1. Set the "idle detection" to 1 minute
2. Start a task
3. Close the window. ktimetracker stays in the taskbar
   and get a coffe or tea

4. You'll be asked if you want to continue or revert the tracked time.
   Select "continue" and then ktimetracker just exits.

I see this message on the gdb console:
"Object::connect: No such signal QWidget::changed(bool)
Program exited normally."

ktimetracker does not exit if the application window stays open.

Comment 7 Thorsten Staerk 2008-08-28 09:02:43 UTC

Great, you deserve a beer for making this reproducible!
However, I just ran into a bug so that I cannot use the idle time detection. As soon as I can, I will continue here.

Comment 8 Thorsten Staerk 2008-08-29 09:21:30 UTC

For me, it does not exit if I click "Continue". If the problem persists, please compile kdepim from 4.1 branch as outlined on http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started then start ktimetracker from console and attach the konsole output here. Good that you used gdb, but at the moment I prefer the konsole output...

Comment 9 Thomas Jarosch 2008-08-29 14:42:56 UTC

Ok, I just checked out the KDE 4.1 kdepim branched and compile ktimetracker.
Before running it, it set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to "build_dir/kdepim/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH" to make sure it picks up the new base libraries (verified via ldd)

The window still disappears. I've had a quick look around the code,
to me the "Object::connect: No such signal QWidget::changed(bool)" error messages gets issued in IdleTimeDetector::informOverrun(), so I've added debug output before and after the connect() call.

Here's the konsole ouput:

The problem is gone with KDE 4.1.1, I'm closing the bug :-)

Comment 11 Thorsten Staerk 2008-09-21 18:26:02 UTC

Great! Feedback (especially this) is much appreciated.

Hello! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this project has been unmaintained for many years so I will be closing this bug.
