Description Imre Péntek 2004-03-15 15:56:17 UTC

Version:           3.0.1 (using KDE KDE 3.2.0)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 Configured with: /var/uhubuild/work/compile/configure --prefix=/usr --infodir=/usr/share/info --mandir=/usr/share/man --enable-languages=c,c++,objc,java,f77,pascal --enable-shared --with-gnu-as --with-gnu-ld --with-system-zlib --host=i386-pc-linux-gnu
OS:          Linux

So when clicking project -> new project appears a create new project window and there are two editboxes labeled Author and email... they are defaults to unusabe values (eg. imi@nn1 which doesn't exists at all, dns' can't resolve it anyway). So I advise to let the defaults to be set (or just store the data last set in these editboxes, and read them next time when new project is intended to be created).

thanks.

I'm sorry but I do not think this is worth the efford (create a GUI and store the data in kdeveloprc).

I'm setting the priority to lo. But if you really want this, feel free to provide a patch.

The files in question are in the parts/appwizard directory.

Yes that will be good to store the data in kdeveloprc.

I'm not that a professional programmer to hack into a strange code. I've never read a code using X (or KDE) libs.

KDevelop will use the known values for the logged in user. You set these in Control Center -> Internet & Network -> Email.

Closing as Invalid.

Thanks. This is a good solution.
