Q Desktop Services Description

QDS is a library for Qt developers which provides cross-platform access to additional features of the various desktop APIs. The QDS library allows Qt applications to access features provided in common desktop APIs in a portable way, without requiring dependencies on any desktop platform library.This is especially useful for applications targeting the Unix desktops, because Qt/X11 is very generic and only provides features it can implement on all sub platforms. All library code is licenced under 2-clause BSD licence.Service implementations are loaded from plugins which link to the respective desktop libraries. The plugin to use can be specified on the application's commandline, in the QDS configuration file or QDS can try to autodetect the currently running platform.What's New in This Release:· Autodetection to use GNOME plugin in case GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set· Replaced the primitive example application with a simple but network aware text editor application· Support for wildcards in mailcap entries
