[14:15] <dandrader> greyback, a simple one: https://code.launchpad.net/~dandrader/qtubuntu/winIdIsMirSurface/+merge/296794
[14:16] <greyback> dandrader: I think mir  has api for surfaces to get a persistent ID. That would be more suitable than a pointer
[14:16] <dandrader> greyback, oh, it's missing the prereq. just a sec
[14:17] <dandrader> greyback, there https://code.launchpad.net/~dandrader/qtubuntu/winIdIsMirSurface/+merge/296795
[14:18] <dandrader> greyback, you need a pointer to refer to the surface in mir's client API
[14:18] <dandrader> greyback, and that's unique from the applications point of view
[14:19] <dandrader> greyback, it's used here: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~dandrader/ubuntu-keyboard/mirSurfaceInputBounds/revision/473
[14:20] <dandrader> greyback, in src/plugin/mirinputregionupdater.cpp
[14:20] <dandrader> greyback, will propose those other branches once I'm finished with testing. but got diverted by https://bugs.launchpad.net/qtmir/+bug/1588929
[14:20] <ubot5> Launchpad bug 1588929 in QtMir "cursor interactions cause lockup with pocket desktop" [Undecided,In progress]
[14:21] <greyback> dandrader: sure, but winId() is more suited to the persistent ID that works across processes. Say process A wants to child its window to process B, IMO winId is way to communicate that
[14:25] <greyback> I think the native window interface thingy would be good enough to return the raw mir pointer to a qwindow
[14:25] <dandrader> greyback, so you want it to return MirPersistentId then. Then how do you suggest an app to get the MirSurface* of its QWindow?
[14:27] <greyback> dandrader: I think we already do in QPlatformNativeInterface::windowProperty
[14:28] <greyback> well our subclass of it
[14:42] <sil2100> Saviq, tsdgeos: hey! Could you guys help me out and give https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/1498 a spin once you have a minute?
[14:43] <tsdgeos> sil2100: yes
[14:43] <sil2100> Thanks :)
[15:08] <tsdgeos> sil2100: works fine here \o/
[15:09] <sil2100> Wooo \o/
[15:09] <sil2100> tsdgeos: thanks!

[23:25] <jarlath> I'm not seeing updates to Unity 8 desktop on 16.04, yet 16.10 seems to be ahead in develpment. Is 16.04 Unity 8 'parked'?
[23:42] <cimi> jarlath, you have stable phone overlay PPA?
[23:44] <jarlath> cimi : No, the standard unity8-desktop in the 16.04 archive. I'm told phone overlay hasn't got the desktop components
[23:46] <cimi> jarlath, we still use that PPA as  base, the stack is the same, if you can upgrade 16.10 will have what's most recent
[23:47] <jarlath> Thanks cimi. Might do that. Is the plan going forward to move with the releases?
[23:48] <cimi> jarlath, I am going to upgrade soon over the next weeks, but so far I develop in xenial + phone overlay PPA
[23:48] <cimi> jarlath, then every once a while we do landings and we create PPA for testing new features
[23:49] <cimi> but you shouldn't worry about those, they might break things :)
[23:49] <jarlath> cimi, thats good enough for me. Ill go with phone overlay :) Thanks again.
[23:51] <cimi> jarlath, you're welcome :)
