Description Shaun Reich 2009-03-15 19:11:06 UTC
Version:           SVN(KDevelop4) (using Devel)
Compiler:          gcc 4.3.2 
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

KDevelop4 (SVN - an hour ago). It's been like this for a while, when you set a bookmark(s) on an opened file, with a project opened (probably doesn't matter).
Then, close KDevelop, reopen it, the bookmark(s) are gone.

Very annoying, as I use this feature all the time, and I don't have some mind-database of line numbers, especially when there are thousands :P .

I think Kate remembers them correctly, but I am not sure.

Changing to wishlist as this is simply a new feature that kdevelop would need to support - namely KatePart's SessionConfigInterface and writing that out to a file (possibly kdevelops session file, but not sure about that).

Hm? I don't see how this is a new feature.

The mere fact of it having to support an extra option in KatePart does not instantly turn it into a wish/feature request.

I think this is a good analogy: ....

If a settings dialog does not save any settings, but you have to use KConfig, adding code that was never there, is this suddenly a new feature?

Nope, not at all, just because new code has to be added does not make it a new feature. This functionality is expected I think.

Perhaps I am wrong, but this is just my take on it...

Even though, it doesn't really matter either way I guess, it just makes more sense for it to be a bug to me.

Thanks!

The point is kdevelop4 never had support for storing bookmarks (the support for creating them is part of the editor apparently), so adding support for storing bookmarks is a new feature.

Anyway, wether this is a bug or wishlist doesn't really make a difference wrt. how soon it'll be closed.
