| ruhil | in unity what is BamfLauncherIcon? | 06:53 |
| oSoMoN | good morning | 07:07 |
| fhd | Hi. I've created a small Unity 2D patch, and to do so, I had to somehow kill the original launcher, and keep it dead | 07:17 |
| fhd | I did that by renaming /usr/bin/unity-2d-launcher. I presume there is a better way? | 07:17 |

| kicsyromy | Hello everyone! I'm not sure I'm in the right channel. I want to ask a question regarding application indicator development. | 09:12 |
| thumper | kicsyromy: yeah, I think this is the right channel | 09:56 |
| ephan | kicsyromy, go ahead | 09:57 |
| kicsyromy | hey | 10:00 |
| kicsyromy | sorry i was afk | 10:00 |
| kicsyromy | i want to add a slider widget to an appindicator | 10:00 |

| kicsyromy | yeah like the one in the sond menu | 10:01 |
| kicsyromy | ive used libido for the scale widget | 10:02 |
| kicsyromy | any toughts? :D I'm really stuck an have no ideea what to do :-S | 10:09 |
| Trevinho | fhd: I guess it's re-launched by dbus monitor, so you can just edit the related service file not to exec it automatically | 10:27 |
| ephan | Just tested ubuntu 11.10 | 10:28 |
| andyrock | good morning | 10:31 |
| ephan | hello andyrock, just back from testing Ubuntu 11.10 | 10:32 |
| andyrock | ephan, cool... report as many bugs as possible | 10:32 |
| ephan | andyrock, indeed I must report all the ones I find when I boot it for testing later | 10:33 |
| andyrock | ephan, try to solve unity bitesize bug too... :) | 10:34 |
| ephan | andyrock, I couldn't get internet on Ubuntu 11.10, so I couldn't install Unity | 10:34 |
| ephan | I could only log in as guest from the Daily Build (running live) | 10:34 |
| ephan | from USB Drive | 10:34 |
| ephan | Actually Ubuntu 11.04 is bugging right now, I can't use the mouse, let me reboot | 10:36 |
| andyrock | ephan, what do you mean for "i couldn't get internet on Ubuntu..."? i'm not American/English :) | 10:36 |
| fhd | Trevinho: Thanks, I'll have a look. | 10:36 |
| ephan | bakc | 10:42 |
| fhd | I've asked this before, but didn't get a definite answer yet: If I create a merge proposal for Unity 2D on Launchpad, will someone review it in any case or do I have to add reviewers manually (as with Google projects)? | 10:44 |
| Amaranth | fhd: You can specify a preference but it emails everyone in the unity-2d team | 10:45 |
| andyrock | ephan, what do you mean for "i couldn't get internet on Ubuntu..."? i'm not American | 10:45 |
| fhd | Amaranth: Ah, that's a definite answer, thanks :) | 10:47 |
| ephan | andyrock, netierh am I XD What I mean is, I couldn't connect to the Internet using Ubuntu 11.10 | 10:54 |
| ephan | I ran live from USB Drive and logged in as guest, it requested a password for guest to connect to the internet | 10:54 |
| ephan | And due to that, i couldn't branch Unity and try to compile | 10:54 |
| andyrock | ephan, ah ok... | 10:55 |
| ruhil | hey all | 10:56 |
| ephan | hey ruhil | 10:56 |
| ruhil | i was reading the source code of unity but could not understand what "BamfLauncherIcon" could mean | 10:57 |
| ephan | Bamf is the library libbafm, but what is that, a class, a file? | 10:58 |
| ruhil | a class defined in a file of same name | 10:58 |
| andyrock | ruhil, a banflaunchericon is an icon of an application | 11:00 |
| andyrock | *bamf | 11:00 |
| andyrock | ruhil, a device icon is a DeviceLauncherIcon | 11:00 |
| andyrock | ruhil, a place/lense icon is a PlaceLauncherIcon | 11:00 |
| ruhil | yeah i figured them out | 11:01 |
| ruhil | but is there any full form related to bamf? | 11:01 |
| ruhil | like "bfb" means "Big Freaking Button" | 11:01 |
| ephan | Hm, just reading the file | 11:02 |
| ephan | Basically, it defines how the icon should be depending on what the application state is, I guess. Am I right? | 11:03 |
| andyrock | ruhil, bamf stands for Bamf Applications Matching Framework | 11:03 |
| ruhil | ephan, yeah :) | 11:04 |
| ruhil | andyrock, how can full form of bamf can contain "b" for bamf? | 11:05 |
| andyrock | ruhil, something like GNU = "Gnu is not unix" :) | 11:06 |
| ruhil | i didn't know that , lol | 11:07 |
| andyrock | ruhil, let me remember the exact word to describe it :) | 11:07 |
| andyrock | ruhil, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recursive_acronym | 11:08 |
| ephan | "<andyrock> ruhil, something like GNU = "Gnu is not unix" :)" haha | 11:08 |
| ephan | I'll add Bafm to that Wikipedia page | 11:09 |
| ephan | Done | 11:10 |
| ruhil | ephan, you made a mistake "Bafm - Bamf Applications Matching Framework" | 11:13 |
| ephan | oops | 11:14 |
| ruhil | aah i corrected it | 11:14 |
| ephan | thanks ruhil | 11:14 |
| ruhil | ephan, :) | 11:14 |
| ephan | I actually looked for the file in the folder for "Bafm" too, I guess it's the way I type | 11:15 |
| === andyrock is now known as andyrock|lunch | ||
| ephan | Does Unity for GNOME 3 also use javascript for plugins? Hum | 11:30 |
| RAOF | ephan: No. | 11:31 |
| ephan | Thanks RAOF | 11:32 |
| RAOF | It is itself a compiz plugin. | 11:32 |
| ephan | Indeed, hence it doesn't make sense writing plugins for plugins. | 11:32 |
| njpatel | ephan, not just that, but we'd rather not have plugins inside the window manager process. You can talk to most (all?) the Unity APIs through the gobject-introspection infrastructure, though | 11:36 |

| === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|lunch | ||
| smspillaz | andyrock: yeah, but I'm kind of busy right now. What's up? | 12:07 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, don't worry if you are busy... sorry! i'll ping you another time | 12:08 |
| smspillaz | it's fine, just braindump and I'll answer at some point :) | 12:09 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, compiz uses extern "C" function to get vtable (and it's fine i know) but it doesn'use extern "C" function to delete vtable | 12:12 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, i know it's not always a problem, but... | 12:12 |
| smspillaz | andyrock: why would that be a problme? | 12:15 |
| smspillaz | *problem | 12:15 |
| smspillaz | (I haven't dealt with this part of the code before, so I'd be interested to know) | 12:15 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, a lot of books/tutorial do not recommend it, after all if the class overloads new and delete operators.... | 12:18 |
| andyrock | but it's a bad programming IMHO | 12:19 |
| smspillaz | andyrock: overloading new and delete is forbidden in the coding guidelines iirc | 12:19 |
| smspillaz | andyrock: I believe that doing things in an extern "C" { } like that only prevents symbol mangling | 12:20 |
| smspillaz | that's when declaring new functions | 12:20 |
| smspillaz | or objects | 12:20 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, i know... | 12:20 |
| smspillaz | so the reason that's in an extern "C" is because dlopen needs to find the ("getCompPluginVTable20090315_name") symbol | 12:21 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, ok thx sorry for the apologize for the inconvenience | 12:21 |
| andyrock | smspillaz, because c++ is not c i know :) | 12:21 |
| smspillaz | andyrock: np | 12:26 |
| smspillaz | andyrock: btw, I have a persistent nick on irc, so if you poke me and I don't reply its best to shoot me an email in case you log of | 12:26 |

| Cimi_ | mterry: no | 12:43 |
| mterry | Cimi_, I have this note in a list of tasks he wrote that needed to be done: "Fixing up the theming in unity-greeter, probably just need to ask Cimi to make a theme. The important part is the transparent menubar." | 12:44 |
| mterry | Cimi_, I don't know if that's enough to go on. Maybe email Robert? | 12:45 |
| Cimi_ | mterry: he should mail me :-) | 12:45 |
| Cimi_ | mterry: that was not in my list | 12:45 |
| mterry | Cimi_, well, he's away on vacation/conference time, so he may not mail you shortly. But ACK | 12:47 |
| mterry | Cimi_, if in a couple weeks he does email you, is there room in your schedule for such a thing? | 12:47 |
| Cimi_ | mterry: IIRC, we will both attend the desktop summit. So we can chat in person | 12:50 |
| mterry | Cimi_, oh, great! OK, that'll sort that then. I'll email him to remind him to seek you out | 12:51 |

| API | lamalex, hi, in the end, do you prefer if I search for a different reviewer for this branch: ? | 15:24 |
| API | https://code.launchpad.net/~apinheiro/unity/a11y-further-places-review | 15:24 |
| lamalex | no, i'll review it now- is it actually ready? didn't you make some changes before? | 15:25 |
| lamalex | API, ^ | 15:27 |
| API | lamalex, hmm no ;) | 15:29 |
| API | the last change that I made | 15:29 |
| API | was just to solve some conflicts on merge | 15:29 |
| API | last week | 15:29 |
| API | but I have just merged now | 15:29 |
| API | and merged fine | 15:29 |
| lamalex | ok, reviewing NOW | 15:29 |
| API | lamalex, ok thanks | 15:31 |
| lamalex | API, can you run the formatter over your code and push a new rev | 15:50 |
| lamalex | the style is all off | 15:50 |
| API | lamalex, hmmm, I think that it is just the format that those files already had | 15:51 |
| API | I mean that it is following current style for all the a11y files | 15:51 |
| lamalex | ok | 15:51 |
| API | so probably the best option would apply it in this commit, and then fix the style for | 15:51 |
| API | all the a11y files | 15:52 |
| lamalex | yah, i forgot that would totally screw the diff :P | 15:52 |
| Trevinho | DBO: I'm here right now! | 15:52 |
| DBO | Trevinho, https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/unity/fix-690143/+merge/69849 | 15:52 |
| API | lamalex, btw, are you talking about ./tools/astyle-formatter? | 15:52 |
| API | right? | 15:52 |
| API | it seems somewhat new, as this seems a new tool for me | 15:53 |
| lamalex | tools/apply_unity blah blah | 15:53 |
| lamalex | yah | 15:53 |
| API | ah ok, the apply formatter | 15:53 |
| API | so, thats the plan? merge this branch and then fix the style in a different merge proposal? | 15:53 |
| Trevinho | DBO: yes, I saw that... I should merge with trunk and retry | 15:54 |
| Trevinho | in my branch it works fine | 15:54 |
| DBO | sorry :/ | 15:54 |
| Trevinho | No problem DBO | 15:54 |
| Trevinho | DBO: about the bug https://code.launchpad.net/~3v1n0/unity/laucher-edge-reveal-revisited/+merge/69701 | 15:54 |
| Trevinho | sorry, the branch | 15:55 |
| Trevinho | do you also want the 1px thing (that I mentioned in the merge request?) | 15:55 |
| Trevinho | Also if I know that this could be temporary too | 15:55 |
| andyrock | DBO Trevinho i think the conflicts are caused by "pulse trash" branch | 15:56 |
| API | lamalex, so, thats the plan? merge this branch and then fix the style in a different merge proposal? | 15:57 |
| lamalex | yah | 15:57 |
| Trevinho | Ah, ok... thankyou andyrock | 15:57 |
| API | lamalex, ok, I will wait for your approval on that merge proposal then | 15:58 |
| andyrock | Trevinho, yw | 16:01 |
| lamalex | API, reviewed with 1 small cmment | 16:05 |
| API | lamalex, ok, thanks, looking | 16:05 |
| Trevinho | Mh, andyrock I gave a look to the pulse branch | 16:06 |
| Trevinho | but it shouldn't matter | 16:06 |
| API | lamalex, I don't understand that comment, I added other g_debug in other functions, why that debug is different? | 16:07 |
| lamalex | ah i just didn't note them | 16:08 |
| lamalex | goes for all of them | 16:08 |
| lamalex | they're kind of useless when not developing | 16:08 |
| lamalex | should scrap them | 16:08 |
| API | lamalex, hmm, but this is the reason I used g_debug instead of g_printf | 16:09 |
| API | you can deactivate g_debug on release | 16:09 |
| andyrock | Trevinho, bho | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 151 result = backlight_strength; | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 152 if (_backlight_mode == BACKLIGHT_ALWAYS_ON) | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 153 result *= CLAMP(running_progress + IconStartingPulseValue(icon, current), 0.0f, 1.0f); | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 154- else if (_backlight_mode == BACKLIGHT_NORMAL) | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 155+ else if (IsBackLightModeToggles()) | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 156 result += (BACKLIGHT_STRENGTH - result) * (1.0f - IconStartingPulseValue(icon, current)); | 16:09 |
| andyrock | 157 else | 16:09 |
| andyrock | this stuff maybe, but i'm not sure... btw they should be only text conflict | 16:10 |
| andyrock | *s | 16:10 |
| Trevinho | Mh, andyrock don't flood :D | 16:11 |
| Trevinho | however I've to check... | 16:11 |
| lamalex | API, yah but it's just noise basically, it's essentially just a trace, gdb can tell you the same thing + more | 16:11 |
| API | lamalex, ok, not a big deal anyway | 16:12 |
| API | taking into account that there are more g_debug | 16:12 |
| API | on other places of a11y code | 16:12 |
| API | what about remove all them on that style review? | 16:12 |
| API | lamalex, ^ | 16:13 |
| lamalex | ok | 16:13 |
| lamalex | works for me | 16:13 |
| lamalex | do you have push access to trunk | 16:13 |
| Trevinho | Am I the only who can't compile the latest unity? | 16:13 |
| Amaranth | hmm, did someone forget to bzr add a file? | 16:14 |
| Amaranth | seems unity-misc/gnome-bg-slideshow.h is missing | 16:14 |
| lamalex | Amaranth, you need unity-misc from trunk | 16:14 |
| Amaranth | oh, that's a separate thing? | 16:15 |
| lamalex | yeah | 16:15 |
| Amaranth | hrm | 16:15 |
| lamalex | bzr branch lp:unity-misc | 16:15 |
| lamalex | API, do you have trunk access? | 16:15 |
| andyrock | Trevinho, which kind of error do you get? | 16:15 |
| Amaranth | lamalex: well that failed but I'll look around | 16:15 |
| API | lamalex, well yes, I already merged branches | 16:15 |
| API | I suppose that people didn't revoke my trunk access ;= | 16:15 |
| API | ;=) | 16:16 |
| lamalex | haha | 16:16 |
| lamalex | yah i was just cheking, i wasn't sure | 16:16 |

| === MacSlow is now known as MacSlow|break | ||
| Amaranth | speaking of noise, any plans to make unity stop spewing loads of stuff while running? | 16:20 |
| Trevinho | jono: skype doesn't use an indicator | 16:20 |
| Trevinho | but the systray | 16:20 |
| jono | Trevinho, it does now | 16:20 |
| Trevinho | ah, ok... :) | 16:20 |
| jono | well, it's menu is rendered as an indicator | 16:20 |
| Trevinho | I didn't upgrade it in Oneiric | 16:20 |
| jono | I think the new indicator API can render notification apps as indicators | 16:21 |
| Amaranth | Trevinho: btw, did you try to ping me the other day? | 16:21 |
| jono | Trevinho, yeah, it is pretty cool :-) | 16:21 |
| jcastro | Trevinho: link me up to your membership application! | 16:21 |
| ephan | Let's not call it systray will we? XD | 16:21 |
| Trevinho | Amaranth: yes, I needed some help with compiz | 16:21 |
| Amaranth | oh? | 16:21 |
| Trevinho | but then I found what I was missing | 16:21 |
| Amaranth | hehe | 16:21 |
| Trevinho | jcastro: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Treviño ;) | 16:22 |
| Amaranth | arg, can't wait until I don't have to keep trying to sync all of this stuff | 16:22 |
| Trevinho | jono, about skype I don't know if that's something related to qt more than to libindicator... | 16:22 |
| Amaranth | hmm, seems the build is broken | 16:22 |
| Amaranth | /home/travis/Projects/gles/unity/plugins/unityshell/src/DesktopLauncherIcon.cpp:54:29: error: ‘class WindowManager’ has no member named ‘ShowDesktop’ | 16:23 |
| Amaranth | either that or I've done something wrong while doing a merge but I don't think I've ever touched that file | 16:23 |
| jono | Trevinho, it may indeed be | 16:23 |
| Trevinho | jono: I also was thinking to do something to get better indicator support for standard gtk apps using a systray, but the way it works in gtk could lead to unworking indicators at all... | 16:25 |
| Amaranth | that was indeed a glitch with a merge | 16:26 |
| Amaranth | oh, *facepalm* | 16:27 |
| Amaranth | I was fixing things up between BASE and THIS instead of OTHER and THIS | 16:27 |
| jono | Trevinho, yeah, I that could be awesome | 16:27 |
| jono | I would have thought providing support for it could be workable | 16:27 |
| jono | it seems Qt is doing that | 16:27 |
| Trevinho | jono: the fact is that in gtk a systray can have both a menu associated and any other action over it | 16:28 |
| Trevinho | So we can't ever know what is doing an app with is systray icon | 16:28 |
| jono | Trevinho, ahhh of course, good point | 16:29 |
| Trevinho | (is was his, of course! :P) | 16:29 |
| Trevinho | or its, better :P | 16:29 |
