Hi all!
I'm starting to be desperate. In the last few weeks I have developed pieces of code (C++) to compute several software metrics ...
Now I have to integrate them with the Kate editor.
What I need is: add a button in the ToolBar (KEditToolBar) that, when pressed, calls the execution Metrics Calculator over the code that stays in the Text area of Kate.
The problem is I looked for the ToolBar implementation, and I found it. I put "false" in this part of "katemainwindow.cpp"

Code: Select all

 
  setStandardToolBarMenuEnabled( true );
  setXMLFile( "kateui.rc" );
  createShellGUI ( true );


then I executed the project and It works! No ToolBar visible!
After that I put "true" again, in order to make it visible again.
....and, it the toolbar isn't visible.

I DID NOT change anything in the KEditorToolBar.h o in the various implementation around it!

What should I do??

The ToolBar disappeared even in the Kate version installed in my PC, not only the compiled one!

PS Linux Mint 12 with Gnome+MATE environment

I would suggest sending a email to the Kate development mailing list, kwrite-devel@kde.org.
