Description Diederik van der Boor 2004-03-22 13:44:44 UTC

Version:           3.0.1 (using KDE 3.2.1, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.2 20031218 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.2-r5, propolice-3.3-7)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.6.3-gentoo-r1

The project templates don't seam to create .ui files, which is a KDE standard. Right now, we have to take a lot of steps in KDevelop and the Automake manager before a project uses a .ui file for a graphical user interface.

imho, these user-interface files should be used more transparently in the background, giving the user the idea that he/she is creating an UI with some point&click, and can type the code directly into the kdevelop editor window.

its not a KDE standard. Nobody forces you to use .ui files, nobody expects you to do that and sometimes its plain impossible to use them. Apart from that the template we have in kdev4 does use a .ui file.
