Please test this with KDevelop-3.4 (RC1 or SVN), unless you
are already.

What Version of kdevelop are you using?

Sorry, forgot to mention.  I am running 3.4 out of svn,
current as of 2
days ago.

Ok then. 

About the custom include-paths: Those are currently only
used by the 
preprocessor(for macros), for choosing the correct item
among multiple with 
the same name, and for applying namespace-aliases/imports.
Included files are 
not put into the code-model(I'd implement it, but it's not
possible because 
of the feature-freeze).
So to have completion for your user-interface classes, you
will simply have to 
import them into the project.

I'll look at the completion-in-comments thing again. I
thought I fixed it 
once, it shouldn't be hard to re-fix it. 

I'll also look at the second small quirk, although that
logic wasn't done by 
me, it shouldn't be very hard to fix.

greetings, David

Hmm, David, which function do you use to get the files for a
project?
I'm thinking about adding foobar_ui.h for all foobar.ui in
the qmake
manager. 

Do you know wether the .cpp's are needed for Qt3 ui-forms to
provide
code-completion? I don't want to put them into the
source-file-list if
they're not needed...

As far is I can see mainly the project allFiles()-function
is used(also 
signals like fileAdded or similar).

The cpp-files should not be needed at all for the
completion, only the headers 
are needed.

Hmm, that is a problem. allFiles is supposed to only return
files that
belong to the project, not any generated ones. The same with
addedFiles.

So unfortunately there's no way to resolve this in the
manager. 

But David there might be a solution in your code, the
.ui-files are
always part of allFiles and thus you could just check wether
<filename_without_.ui>_ui.h or
<filename_without_.ui>.h exists and parse
that too. Would that be an option?

The *_ui.h headers can be anywhere on the disk, though.  For
instance,
in my projects they are in a subdir of the build directory,
which means
this would not work for me.

Well, then there's actually no way to do this easily. The
parser would
need to have access to the internals of the project manager
- i.e. where
such generated files are put.
