19 * @brief Base class for version control plugins.
21 * Enables the file manager to show the version state
22 * of a versioned file. To write a custom plugin, the following
23 * steps are required (in the example below it is assumed that a plugin for
24 * Subversion will be written):
26 * - Create a fileviewsvnplugin.json file with the following content:
30 * "Description": "The svn plugin",
37 * - Create a class FileViewSvnPlugin derived from KVersionControlPlugin and
38 * implement all abstract interfaces (fileviewsvnplugin.h, fileviewsvnplugin.cpp).
40 * - Take care that the constructor has the following signature:
42 * FileViewSvnPlugin(QObject* parent, const QList<QVariant>& args);
45 * - Add the following lines at the top of fileviewsvnplugin.cpp:
47 * #include <KPluginFactory>
48 * K_PLUGIN_CLASS_WITH_JSON(FileViewSvnPlugin, "fileviewsvnplugin.json")
51 * - Add the following lines to your CMakeLists.txt file:
53 * kcoreaddons_add_plugin(fileviewsvnplugin SOURCES fileviewsvnplugin.cpp INSTALL_NAMESPACE "dolphin/vcs")
54 * target_link_libraries(fileviewsvnplugin DolphinVcs)
57 * General implementation notes:
59 * - The implementations of beginRetrieval(), endRetrieval() and versionState()
60 * can contain blocking operations, as Dolphin will execute
61 * those methods in a separate thread. It is assured that
62 * all other methods are invoked in a serialized way, so that it is not necessary for
63 * the plugin to use any mutex.
65 * - Dolphin keeps only one instance of the plugin, which is instantiated shortly after
66 * starting Dolphin. Take care that the constructor does no expensive and time
67 * consuming operations.
