Created attachment 131329 [details] Notify signals are not cleanly inherited SUMMARY When I define a config notify signal (using <signal name="mySignal"/>) in a KConfig skeleton, and create a subclass that modifies mySignal revelant stuff, I can not emit this signal. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a .kcfg file to define a KConfig skeleton, equip it with a <signal/>. 2. Create a second .kcfg file to define a subclass KConfig skeleton, make it inherited by specifying Inherits in the .kcfgc file. 3. Equip the second .kcfg with a property that shall emit the signal from the base skeleton. OBSERVED RESULT Option A: Compile error, the signal is defined only in the first skeleton, so the second skeleton does not know the relevant enum values and so on. Option B: Define the <signal/> in the subclass .kcfg too. No compile error, the signal is just a different one. See screenshot. EXPECTED RESULT The subclass skeleton inherits the signal and knows about it. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Qt 5.14.2 Frameworks 5.73 kconfig_compiler_kf5 5.73.0 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Workarround: Use multiple signals and listen to all of them. Expected solution A: kconfig_compiler allows to inherit notify signals without trouble. Expected solution B: https://api.kde.org/frameworks/kconfig/html/kconfig_compiler.html tells me how to inherit signals. (I didn’t read all of them specifically for this issue, but I expect it either in the “Inherits” table row, or where <signal/> is described.)
