Today I learnt about multi-cursor editing in Katepart and thus #KDevelop (my favourite IDE, except for C/C++).

I was like "okay, so that's probably where I normally use regexes?".

When I later sat at a markdown list I wanted to transform into a two-column table, I was "wait, before I write a regex, let's try this multi-cursor editing thing they talked about".

My mind is officially blown.

(EDIT: Yes, I made an editing mistake there, in the line-wrapped line. Fixed that by now ;-). Should've pressed End twice to get the caret to the right position, but this was like my second time using that feature. I've needed more iterations for regex-based editing in such cases, and I'm usually good at regexes.)

A couple of days ago a new release 6.14 of KDE Frameworks came out and part of it is the syntax highlighting engine, used not only by KDE applications like Kate and KDevelop; but also by some others like Qt Creator.

I'm happy to report that this version also brings support for RISC-V instructions/registers/… in GNU Assembler, that I contributed:

You're welcome!
I can relate, I've been trying to ditch vscode/-ium for a while now and Kate seems to be getting a solid option.

For Python development, a worth-trying option is #kdevelop .

I also had issue finding useful documentation, so I'd say it's not you 😅

As a #programmer but #beginner I already know that documentation is important: that's why I'll make a website to document my adventures and potential progress.
If you have any resources that you think could help me, do not hesitate a second!
If you have any tools to advise, do not hesitate a second!
I'm considering using :fedora: #fedora #Kinoite with #toolbx or something like #RockyLinux (but if you have other distros to advise, tell me) with :kdevelop: #kdevelop #codelite for C++, #spyder or #pycharm for Python 🐍 and #rustrover or #lapce for Rust 🦀 and :kate: #kateeditor for simple file edition.

KDE release the release candidate for the 6.13.0 frameworks, time to test drive these together with experimental Qt6 6.8.3 here. :)

#HaikuOS #KDE #Qt #KDevelop #Kasts #experimentalsetup

Using (an uptodate) KDevelop is a handy IDE for Haiku (as there are others like the native Genio IDE). :)

#HaikuOS #KDE #Qt #KDevelop #Kasts #Dolphin #Kate #NeoChat #Tokodon

Still good and on track for building and running KDevelop on Haiku, for this QtWebengine has been patched out as we don't have this one for Qt6. Already had 24.12.3 up and running, now checked building and packaging today's master checkout. Looks good! (me happy) 😍

When I started looking into KDE there was something poking my nerves for quite some time until last year at FOSDEM (2024), how could one switch color schemes in the KDE applications?
One hurdle was down and I started experimenting with several ones, fine you would say? No! :)

Konsole still didn't want to follow color-schemes no matter what I tried, until today, found out (thanks Fedora VM) how they worked and then started checking this on Haiku.

Way back around the year 2000 I got a job in tech, and the team all used an IDE on windows called #KDevelop

It was my first taste of an "IDE".

Previously I have only ever edited program files in simple text editors like vi, gedit, and the text editor that came with sunos4.

I learned how I didn't like C++ at all.

Kdevelop 0.1 was released in 1998. It was part of the KDE family and still is.

@stib@aus.social Hey there! Indeed, it was really just me not being sure where to find that setting. Just trying to figure out "where is it set?", to fix that.

i address Rofi 'cause i'd just finished playing with that particular setting, and later noticed that contrast issue.

No worries, and MANY KUDOS thanks for your taking time to look. much appreciated.

here's what i did instead, which i should have done before bothering you personally, whimsically, capriciously as it were. to adjust the other settings-- more likely to affect the desired parameters.
ha! did you hear that!? E.g. "KDE Global Theme", oh it was much confusion, as momentarily thought it was budgie.

Just playing with stuff. it's been a while since i've meesed w/ KDE. and i'm too poor to buy toys.

thank you, @stib@calckey.social

serious question there #Linux people #ArchLinux

This is a Cinnamon desktop (currently. not sure what i was doing when i asked that. i'll have to try it and see what it looks like today. i am determined to get #i3wm #swayfx and / or #Hyprland to function correctly on this system @linkachus17 ~! 🐞

I was checking out #kdevelop which seems really badass and well-put-together so to speak. i'm sure there's a better 90's word, i mean, 2025's word for it.

anyway.

it's just too much to try to get all of the details. for me, at least. but i did get that far!
💃

Living on the edge, these things are not in Haiku(ports) repository/depot (yet). :)

KDE frameworks 6.10.0, Qt6 6.8.1 and Kdevelop 24.12.1 without Qt6WebEngine.

KDevelop building Luminance HDR

#HaikuOS #haikuports #KDE #Qt
#KDevelop #porting #Luminance HDR

not caring about any fancy desktop configurations (methinks at least)

What's the quick and dirty way to fix the "invisible" text here?

#Linux #desktopenvironment #ArchLinux #KDEPlasma #kdevelop

Does it have something to do with #Rofi ?

#Kdevelop (from #KDE) is really highly buggy

The KDE 6 frameworks should be close to done (running 6.8.0), going over some of the gear24 apps/libraries for 24.12, one of the major ones being KDevelop, since the move to KF6 it wasn't possible to use it anymore due to the lack of qtwebengine for Qt6 on Haiku.
With some pointer from upstream and a bug from Gentoo filed some time ago, I kinda got it up and running patching qtwebengine out (oh and a fix within Haiku's source to fix the build).
#KDE #HaikuOS #KDevelop #hacking :)

Ever since I upgraded to Ubuntu 24.04, I noticed KDevelop is full of annoying messages like this one about cv::Mat. I couldn't figure out how to turn off the messages.

Tonight I finally found the setting:

Click on -> Settings -> Configure KDevelop -> Plugins -> (scroll to the bottom) -> toggle "Problem Reporter View". Once disabled, click "Apply" on the bottom-right of the window. #kdevelop #cpp

How does anyone get anything done in QT these days :/ Just updated #kdevelop to see if it was worth using now that CLion has kinda gone to shit and it warned me at the start that it required 86GiB of ram and 8GiB of hard drive space to update...and it wasn't kidding....and the ide is still the clunky janky mess I remember it being :/ (though now it has about 200GB of dependencies)...It also required installing a bunch of wayland stuff even though I don't use wayland...

#linux #bloat

Turns out that I can still step-though debug with #xdebug on #kdevelop - #php 8 still works!

I want to get into #kde app development, but I'm not sure where to start

there's a few ideas I've got for apps, but I know nothing about #qt or #kiragami

is #kdevelop still the best option for IDE?

can #qtdesigner do Kiragami?

It's pretty easy the way I can debug Python and Bash scripts in #KDevelop.. I think it is a little underestimated IDE, so I use it more often as the default one. 👍 :kde: 🤓
