Bug 232645

Version:            (using Devel)

It appears at first glance that the smoke findMethod() function should find a method regardless of which smoke object that method is defined in.  For instance, qt_Smoke can find the method MessageBox::enableAllMessages, even though it is defined in kdeui_Smoke.  This isn't the case for methods defined in QGlobalSpace, because that "class" is marked as being internal to each of qt_Smoke, kdecore_Smoke, and kdeui_Smoke, among others.  This makes it rather difficult to find methods defined in the QGlobalSpace namespace, because you have to know which Smoke object to use before you do the lookup.

I wrote this small program to illustrate the problem:

#include "smoke.h"
#include "qt_smoke.h"
#include "kdecore_smoke.h"
#include "kdeui_smoke.h"

int main() {
    init_qt_Smoke();
    init_kdecore_Smoke();
    init_kdeui_Smoke();

    Smoke::ModuleIndex method1 = qt_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace", "ki18n$" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method2 = kdecore_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace", "ki18n$" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method3 = kdeui_Smoke->findMethod( "QGlobalSpace", "ki18n$" );

    Smoke::ModuleIndex method4 = qt_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox", "enableAllMessages" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method5 = kdecore_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox", "enableAllMessages" );
    Smoke::ModuleIndex method6 = kdeui_Smoke->findMethod( "KMessageBox", "enableAllMessages" );

    if( ( method1 == method2 ) &&
        ( method2 == method3 ) &&
        ( method3 == method1 ) ) {
        printf( "QGlobalSpace::ki18n$           found from all smoke objects\n" );
    }
    else {
        printf( "QGlobalSpace::ki18n$           NOT found from all smoke objects\n" );
    }

    if( ( method4 == method5 ) &&
        ( method5 == method6 ) &&
        ( method6 == method4 ) ) {
        printf( "KMessageBox::enableAllMessages found from all smoke objects\n" );
    }
    else {
        printf( "KMessageBox::enableAllMessages NOT found from all smoke objects\n" );
    }
}
